    Well I thought I was 5'9 until my doc recently told me I was 5'8! But I'm close enough right?*bats eyelashes*

    My goal is 180, but we'll see once I get there if I want to lose more. :)

    I'm 5'9" and currently about 150. I'm very happy with everything except my thighs... My "before" pictures in my profile is at 175-ish.

    I'm 5'10"ish...and I weigh 150 (have weighed 149 recently). When I got married 20 years ago I was 135-140. Maintained that fine. My initial goal is 145 but I have been plateaued at 150 for a bit. I'm not unhappy here but I think I have some excess belly and my booty is still saggy and dimply. I can't reverse the effects of gravity but I can lose a bit more so it doesn't sag so much, right?

    I am currently wearing size 4s and 6s. Which isn't as dramatic as it sounds...20 years ago I wore a size 8. Size inflation!

    At 5'10" I want 160, but would be ecstatic at 170. The thing I hate most are those idiots who say "but you're so tall". Like that changes my 190 31% body fat from being unacceptable (to me - most people think my 22 pound loss looks great).

    I am 5'10 and my goal weight is 185. I honestly have never been normal or average so I came up with this number based on my frame and what is supposed to be the ideal weight for my height. I prefer to keeps some curves so I don't plan on striving for a smaller number. I will wait until I get closer to the goal and re-evaluate what I want my target to be.

    I am 5'10. My starting weight was 317, my first goal weight is 190, but ultimate is 175. I cant rememeber being smaller than that since my teen years, so I think that is a good place for me to be. That puts me at a size 12 which I am happy with.

    I'm 5'10, and my goal weight is 170 or 175. I want to get into a size 12 or 10.

    I'm 5'9.5'' too and my goal weight would be 130 (59kg) although I would probably be content with anything under 138 (63kg).
    I'm at 168 right now but I really wanna get down to see the 130+. I looked best at that weight.

    I'm 5'8/5'9(I never know!) and I currently weigh 154.. and my goal weight is 150. I started out at 180 and felt and looked huge. Ultimately I'd like to get down to 140, but I need to get to 150 first before I re-evalute.

    Hello!

    Yup, I'm 5 feet 9 inches tall and I have no idea what my ideal weight would be as I've always been overweight.

    If I was being totally honest, I feel better now at 190 than I ever have, ever, so if I *had* to stop now, I would be ok.

    I'm shooting for at least 168lbs - out of the "overweight" category in the BMI charts, though my initial target was 150 (to become half the woman I was :wink: ).

    I may never make it that far - been at it a year and 4 months now - and I might decide to hold on to a few curves if I start to look too skinny.

    Aim for 168 and see how it goes!

    I'm 6ft and I'm aiming for 191 (100 off from where I started), but I'm going to see what I look like when I get near to there and re-evaluate.

    I'm 5'11 and when I first started (at 205) I set my goal at 165. Then I reached it, and still have fat on my lower belly, love handles, butt, thighs, and a little on my calves. I set a new goal for 155, but I think 150 is going to be 'it' for me. Because of the way I'm built, I've always thought 165 was my ideal weight because any smaller than that and I was too skinny in my upper waist, chest, and arms. But now I am strength training and I am in much better proportion. We'll see when I get to 155, though.

    I'm 5'9". My goal is 160. My highest weight was 272 and I'm 232 right now. I got down to 215 in 2009 and that's the thinnest I've ever been. I remember being 209 in 7th grade O.o But even just at 215, I was SO happy with the way I looked and felt. I refuse to be fat anymore!!!

    My current goial is 175. I look good and am happy at that weight.

    According to the BMI charts I am supposed to be at 169 for a max and I may try to get to that but I do not feel I need to.

    I am 5'9 and according to the wrist test I am large frame (thanks to my pops). I am currently 166lbs (as of yesterday) and want to be 150lbs. Maybe 160 toned but not fat. But although I have lost 38lbs my stomach is still 38" right now and I hate it. Per the BMI calculator the healthy range is 138 - 169 lbs. So once I get to 150lbs I will have to go from there.....
