Soooo happy I found this. Really enlightening to see other ppls goals from a taller point of view
Im 5ft 8 currently 171/172lb hoping to get down to 165 and see how I feel there. ( guided by online calculators). Im quite big boned but after reading some of these comments im starting think my journey may be a little longer lol.xxx0 -
I'm 6' and 161lbs at the moment. Aiming for somewhere between 130-140lbs, we'll see when I get there. I have small bone structure and feel better at the lower end of the healthy scale.0

My lowest weight at this height was 152lbs. That doesn't sound thin but apparently for my frame I can't get much thinner without looking sick. At that time, my mom was convinced I was doing drugs (I wasn't) because I was so thin. *shrug* I was healthy and I thought I looked fit, not thin.0

Yep that was around the point that I "bottomed out", I was 148 lbs, I'm 5'9". Apparently I started looking sickly too and I was pretty pale and my face and hip bones were getting gaunty looking. I'm aiming for 150-155 lbs now. That seems to be the good spot for my build, definitely got the most compliments and liked the way clothes fit me at that weight.My lowest weight at this height was 152lbs.

This is a very interesting conversation, thanks OP for posting.
Im 5ft 10-11in and have a goal weight of between 154lbs and 168lbs (11st to 12st). I have been as low 154lbs before, but that was a good 7 years ago and I had a very different lifestyle, so unsure if I can make it there again. Will see how I feel when I hit 168lbs and go from there.0 -
I'm 6 feet and I'm shooting for 175, which was my "heavy" weight when I was single.
In my younger years, I maintained a weight of 160. **sigh** And I thought I needed to lose 10 more pounds! Looking back at the pictures, it was a good weight for me. I'm going to try and get there again, but I'm not going to tear myself up about it.
My oldest sister is 6 feet 1-1/2 inches and she has at various times weighed as little as 130. Now, at age 60, she's at 150. The difference between us is really muscle mass - I have done weight lifting, martial arts, strength training and in general built more muscle mass than she has. I will never, ever see 150, much less 130.
What I do need to learn is that just because I CAN carry more weight before anyone notices, doesn't mean it's an excuse to do so. The flip side of that is I have to lose a lot of weight before anyone notices. I can lose 30 pounds before anyone says "You look different - have you done something different with your hair?" LOL!0 -
I am 6 feet tall. At 225 I were a loose and comfortable size 12. I carry the bulk of my weight in my chest and thighs. Ideally, I would like to weigh about 180-185. I'm a big woman, big feet, triple D bras etc. Does anyone have a printable grocery list for clean eating. I am at work right now and a lot of pages are blocked.
I find body differences so fascinating.
I'm 6 feet tall and currently between 220 and 225 (depends on the day) and I wear a tight size 16. I'd have to lose another 15 pounds to get into the size 14 stretch shorts I bought last year.
The last time I fit a size 12, I weighed 155 pounds. For about 2 weeks. LOL!0 -
a healthy weight for me is around 175, at 6'2", I honestly dont care what the scale says...just what my body looks like.0
