Hello! I am not new to MFP, however, I have started a new journey here with a new account and I am looking for friends that are 5'7 like me!

I am 155 lbs and ultimately have a goal of 135-130 pounds. What are your weight loss goals? Also feel free to share any advice! Thank you :)

    My goal weight is 185. For someone who has been between 260-280 the last few years that would be an accomplishment for me.

    I'm also 5'7" and I started out at 195, down to 185 now. My goal is 145-150 depending on how I feel I guess. Best of luck on your weight loss journey!

    I'm 5'7 too and my goal is around 150. I'm really shooting for a number that gets me into the "healthy" range on the BMI scale. We'll see how I feel when I get close, I've been in the mid 200's for a long time.

    I am not quite 5'7, but 5'6.25. My goal is 150 pounds. According to BMI my max healthy weight is 154.9 pounds. I am currently 175 pounds. My 3rd or 4th time trying to loose weight. It keeps getting worse everytime I restart as I need to loose more than the previous time.

    I am 5"7 ish, I think I am shrinking as I age and my back falls apart! At my lowest weight a few years ago I was 126 and a comfortable size 4. Have gained a few pounds back and currently about 140. My goal is to get back to 130 and try to stay there.

    Good luck to you!

    I'm 5"7 and want to get to 121 lb, because that's the lowest I've been at before, and I loved it. Currently I'm at 124, but those very last pounds are excrutiatingly hard to lose... And once I'm there, I'm determined to stay there.

    5"7' - starting weight 150 - current almost 140 (YAAAAAY ME!). I 'think' I would like to get to around 130ish? It just depends on how my body looks as I lose some more excess fat. I won't know till I get there! :)

    Yoohoo!

    I'm also 5'7''!
    I always thought it was a rare height around here for girls...

    My goal is 114 lbs. I started out at 132lb and looked like a whale (it's my bone structure, any extra weight looks ridiculous on me).

    I've been maintaining since February, hovering between 110 lbs. and 117 lbs.

    Feel free to add me :)

    I am 5'7 and 148 lbs. My goal is 125-130. That was my range before two babies (worth every pound!!). I need a mini tummy tuck to remove excess skin around my belly button so my deal to myself is "get to 130 and you can schedule a consult". Unfortunately when the weight comes off my belly looks horrible right at my belly button:( Let's get motivated!
