Height and Weight please?

savlyon

5'9"

highest weight: 250 (Jan. 2010)
starting MFP weight 244 (Feb. 2011)
Current weight 179
Goal weight 145 (because it is smack dab in the middle of my "healthy weight zone" of 123-169)

When I get to 145 I'm going to Florida. I hope to do that by Spring Break...but really within the next 6 months is fine!

My mom says I can't weigh 145 (perhaps because we have a similar build and she doesn't think she can weigh 145). My sister who is 5'6" weighs 142--but she is getting flabby in college. Well, my mom said I couldn't run a half marathon last summer and I did that, so I'm going to do this too.

I am 5'3" and 50 years old.

My starting weight back in June was 252.
Today I am at 204. (48 pounds down)
I will be out of the "obese" BMI category when I get to 169,
I will be at a "healthy" BMI when I get to 141.
My target weight is 135. (69 lbs to go)

My happiness is not (and never has been) based on my weight. I am happy today, but fully understand that I need to eat better, exercise and lose the weight to be healthy.

Started: Oct. 2010 @ 294lbs
Started MFP in April 2011 @ around 265
Current: 205 with a bf% of 9.4

Actually got down to 195 at one point but then started lifting heavier weights and adding calories. The 10lbs Ive added is fairly lean body mass that Im very happy with.

If you are 5'8' then 120 to 135 lbs is too low. I am pretty slim and athletic and am 5'6 and 130 lbs. They say add 5 lbs for each inch. So, you would be very healthy, fit at about 140 lbs. And be happy NOW . You have accomplished a lot already. Don't wait to be happy later when you reach your goal.

I am 5'5". I started at 170.5 pounds at the beginning of 2011 -- half a pound more than I *EVER* weighed pregnant -- only I wasn't pregnant this time :grumble:

Currently I am at 140. My goal is 130, I would REALLY love to get to 125, but I will play that by ear.

I am hoping to get there by the end of next year. This has been super slow for me. I have had 2 very long plateaus, the first one was over 5 months long, and the current one has been running about 2 months now. I am content to ride it out for now, as I am still "thinning down" even though my weight is stable. I walk 2-3 days a week, and I run 2-3 days a week. I ran my first 5k on Thanksgiving, and my 2nd one is Jan 14th.

I'm just under 5'8" but call myself 5'7" to be more honest...let me tell you, at 120 you'll look anorexic. I've been there in my mid 20s and it isn't pretty, you'll look sick. Aim for something higher. Around 130. I'm getting back to 128 I think that's great for my height, plus I'm small boned. My frame is very delicate. I have tiny writs and can count my ribs easily. I'll put a pic different picture up in a few so you know what I mean. I am 137 right now, so you'll see how thin that is.

i'm 5'7"
Starting weight 168
Current weight 137
Goal Weight 133

I would ideally like to loose the extra 5lbs but have switched to strength training to help tone and shape my body so I don't really mind either way

kydogwalker

I started mid-October, didn't actually weigh myself right away, but I think my guess is pretty accurate:
Height 5'5-5'6
Starting weight 194
Current weight about 180
Goal weight 135-140

I don't have an exact expectation, but hope to get there sometime in the summer to early fall.

I'm 5'10"
My heaviest weight was (EEK!) 294 lbs.
I started on MFP at 280 lbs.
I'm now between 168-170 (that's my maintenance range) and hope to stay right about there.
56% body fat at heaviest to 23% body fat now.

I am kinda curious if you all would share with us....your height and weight when you started, what you are now, and where you want ot be for you to be happy. AND how long do you expect this to take? (If anyone can even figure that out, cuz I am having a hard time doing so).

I am 5'8
started dieting at 233 lbs
joined this on the 8th of december @ 223 lbs
I am now 221 lbs
would like to be 120-135 lbs (not sure..I will know when I get there)

I'm 5'4"
When I started on 1/2/11 I was 180
I am currently 150
My goal as of right now is 140

My goal weight 145
Current weight 149-4 to goooo!!!
I am happy with my weight right now. Mostly working on toning.

jwhit31

I'm 5'6"

I started out on 5/17/11 at 214lbs

As of today I am 154lbs

I've reached my goal but I'm not happy yet so I've decided to lose another 15lbs, so 140 seems good. I don't have a set date to accomplish this. I'll get there when I get there.

dbaumgarn

I would like to add that your goal weight of 120-130 may be a bit much??? I am 5'8 and weigh 149 now and happy with that. If i were to loose 10 more lbs I am afraid I would be too skinny...I'm just working on toning it all up!

I am now 136
I am happy to stay at this weight and maintain my muscle. I would love to get rid of a little more flab, but I can't imagine being any smaller. 122 was my first goal (midpoint of my BMI) but I changed it to 130 because I strength train and 122 didn't seem realistic.

I'm 5'11
Started dieting in 2008 @ 271
Currently 156
I'm comfortable at this weight, however, I'd like to tone up & get back into the 140s (145 was my adult low in 2010)
Currently going through divorce, so losing hasn't been my #1 priority (socializing, Miller Lite & Moscato have :laugh:) so I'm happy with maintaining at the moment - after the holidays I'm going to kick it back into full gear & get my hott bod back
