    Medium build, 141-144lbs
    28-29 / 7-8? in pants. I've been at Forever21.
    24 years old, no kids

    I'd like to hover around 130 I think, right now I'm at the higher end of my "healthy BMI" and although I'm comfortable and happy I think that I would be even more happy and healthy with another 10 lbs gone. It would also be my lowest weight ever.:happy: :happy:

    Hey.....that's me!!!

    - I think I'm a small build because I can touch my thumb and pinky finger around my wrist but I'm also very top heavy (38/40 DDD--the last time I got under 150 I went from a D to a DD....go figure)
    - I wear mostly 16s but they are very very loose in my thighs and butt but my stomach is bigger due to my wonderful children who were both 8lbs8oz at birth and I was all belly. Some 14s fit well everywhere but are tight in my tummy
    - It was 150 but I've lowered it to 145 so I'm in a healthy BMI but I have only been around 150 1 x in my 10 year marriage and it was in a very unhealthy way. I'm scared I won't be able to get there even so I'm not even dreaming of more than that!!!
    - I'm 36 and proud of it!!!
    - 2 children....5 1/2 yr old boy and 18 month old girl. Both 8lbs 8oz at birth and with my daughter I was over 54" around. I have the tummy fold over at the bottom and a lot of extra skin in the tummy area!!! but I would do it all again!!!

    To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :)

    - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large)
    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear?
    - what is your goal weight and why?
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing)
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) )

    I am *almost* 5'4"...actually 5'4.5" lol so I normally say 5'5" cause I round up.

    - small frame
    - 148 size 8/10
    - 120, because I have a specific body fat goal which is lower than what it was when I weighed 128, so the weight is actually an arbitrary guess, lol. I want to be 12% BF for figure comps. and 17% otherwise. When I weighed 128, I was at 22%.
    - 32
    - no kids

    To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :)

    - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large)
    Not sure, I'm guessing medium.

    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear?
    Before losing any weight, I was 165 and *squeezing* into a pair of size 17 jeans from Target. Now I'm 143 and the 13's I bought several weeks ago are getting loose. :-)

    - what is your goal weight and why?
    My current 'ultimate' goal is 125 - that puts me right smack in the middle of the healthy weight range for 5'4". Plus it may be 10 lbs more than I weighed when I started dating my husband, but it's also 5 lbs less than when I married him. I'm trying to be hopeful but also realistic.

    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing)
    28, but in 4 days I'll be 29. :-)

    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) )
    I have a son that's about to turn 4 (born the day before my birthday) and another son that's 19 months. My stomach bears witness to how far the pregnancies stretched my body, that's for sure.

    I am 5'4 ( but have actually lied a few times about my height saying I was 5'7. At weight watchers, they just looked at me like "sure honey, you aren't kidding anyone but yourself".

    I am 54 years old
    I have a medium build
    I have one child (had a C section, which cuts all your stomach muscles **sigh**)
    Currently I weigh 202, my lowest weight was 174. I am trying to get down to 150 which was my high school weight.

    - what kind of build are you? Not really sure, in my younger days I would have said small, but now perhaps medium? How do you tell?
    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? 149, size 12/10/8 depending on what pants I'm buying, and that's all from the same store! Old Navy. Typically I'm a 10 these days though
    - what is your goal weight and why? 135 because it's on the inside of my BMI, but I'll reassess at 140 and see what I think needs doing.
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing) 29
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) ) Not yet!

    - what kind of build are you? MEDIUM

    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? 171 lbs. Size 12- 14 depending on cut.

    - what is your goal weight and why? 135 - that was my pre-motherhood weight when I was early 30, if I reach that next year, I will consider 125 as I was that in my early 20s. Why? I have always had the dreaded weight in my abdominal area, I am a classic apple shaped woman, I totally despise having the muffin roll over the top of my jeans and not being able to tuck in my shirts. My muffin will be gone if I make it to pre-motherhood weight. I want to be fit before I turn 50.

    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing) 48 yrs old

    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) ) Yes, two girls.

    I'll answer my own questions too :)
    - I am medium build
    - I am 153 and in size 12 pants
    - right now my goal weight is 140 mainly because I have no clue last time I was below 150 (my pre-babies weight) and its considered a healthy weight whereas I am considered overweight currently
    - I am 30
    - I have had 2 kids, both by c section, so have the below the belly button pooch and clothes that fit me at this weight pre kids don't fit me or don't fit the same, kids have defintely changed my body, especially in the hips/belly area

    (and anyone that wants to add me as a friend, feel free to :) )


    I am small build
    I am 104 and wear size 1/2 pants (sometimes 0)
    My goal weight is where I am. If I put on some weight due to muscle I am good with that also :)
    I am 34
    I have 1 child

    Medium build.

    148 and wear a size 8. Measurements right now are 39, 32, 39. Would love to be 38, 28, 38. Even 36,26,36 doesn't sound too bad ;)

    Goal weight is 135. As a teen I was 110, married at age 20 at 120 lbs. 110 is way too skinny and 120 is not sustainable. Not sure if I'll have to reevaluate once I get to 135. I"ll have far more muscle than I did at 110 and 120.

    45 years old.

    3 grown kids. Highest weight 205 before giving birth to middle child. Highest non pregnancy weight - 180, which was about 3 years ago. Lost some weight and maintained at 155 for over a year. Now going through the slooooow process of losing weight since actively trying since May 1st of this year.
