    I'm 5'6", female, and my ideal body weight is 130 lb. My ideal body fat % is 24%, so I'm not sure if 24% body fat and 130 lb will end up being the same point. It's more important to me to reach the 24% body fat, though, so whatever that weight equals, then it is what it is. The reason I picked 24% is because it's the higher end on the 'fitness' scale, but lower than 'average'. I want to be 'fit', but not a fanatic about it, if that makes sense http://www.builtlean.com/2010/08/03/ideal-body-fat-percentage-chart/ . The reason I picked 130 lb is because that is what I weighed in high school.

    I'm 5'6" and I'm shooting for 135 lbs but would be happy with 140. I remember looking good at 140 but I have been lower. Mostly I just want to fit into the huge stacks of jeans I've outgrown! I am a pear, so I'll never lose my curves. But that's ok :wink:

    I am 5'1" and weight 167. I think 140-145 would be ideal for me. I am feeling really happy with the way I look right now even though I am considered obese on the BMI scale. I do not consider myself obese, and I do not think anyone looking at me would think I am obese. I wear size 10-12 and even some size 8s. I have lost 73 pounds over the last 4 years. I am a hot looking grandma right now with curves. I like being a woman. :D

    I'm 5 ft 3 and half and was 175lbs ..for my height I read I should be between 119- 147lbs... I had just made it to 147lbs before my TOTM started last week and hoping to be 145lbs for next weigh-in to reach 30lbs lost. My goal weight is about 129-132lbs. Somewhere in middle of my healthy range.

    I want to lose half my highest body weight. We'll see how I feel at that point. That will get me to about where I was as a freshman in college, 20+ years ago.

    Well what I think my ideal weight and what the doctor thinks my ideal weight should be are 2 different things. I am 5 10 and they want me at 145-150. but right now I cant even get to 115. I think 110 is good for me.

    I'm 5' 1" and my long-term goal is 120. 9 more pounds to go!

    I should add that I started getting healthy almost exactly a year ago, at 193. Yuck.

    Good for you!!!

    I'm also 5'1" and am hoping for 130. I'd love less but 130 is a weight I can live with.

    Hi guys!
    I'm 5'1 and my goal is 120. I have a medium build even though I'm short so that would be my healthiest bet. 20 to go!

    I’m 5’7” and currently at 145. My ideal is about 120 – 130. My body seems to want to “settle” around 140-145 but I really struggle with that. I have a love/hate relationship with food and a hate/hate (lol) relationship with my body image so most important to me is to improve my relationship with food and my body and hopefully just find some semblance of peace there.
