  • I'm almost 5'4 and my goal weight is 53kg (117 pounds). I have a large frame and aim to build muscle so I don't want to go lower.

    well i'm 5'4" and mygoal weight used to be 119 but ive since changed my mind and actually just want to get to 124, I know it's only 5lbs difference, but at that weight, it's actually about 5% of my body weight. (i think, maths is not my strong point) anyway, i got down to 125 last summer and looking back at photos of me from them and comparing them to now (im at 130/131) I would be so much happier at that size!

    My goal is 135-140...I've got the child bearing hips and don't think I'm meant to be skinny skinny like some people are

    Me too! Although I have a small frame, my hips seem to indicate that I won't look well below about 135 or so. Will re-evaluate once I get there, though. Long way till then, however! LOL

  • Ideally, 145. And I'm 5'1.
    I have an hourglass figure and I remember being happy with my proportions when I was that weight before.

    I'm barely 5'3", and my UGW is between 120-125. I would like to get back into a size 4, like I was when I finished college 7 years ago. Currently 138, so I have about 15 pounds to go! At my thinnest, I was 108...but back then, I had NO curves and was way too thin. I would like to keep some of my hips and bust, and just lose the gut in between. ;)

    I'm 5'3 and my goal is to be around 145 , when I was 175 I was a size 8. So I don't think I will look good in anything under that but hey nothing is permanent it all depends on how I feel when I reach my goal.

    I am 5'3" and I cannot imagine being 125. I have not been under 200 since high school or junior high. I am currently about 275 and my goal weight is 175. That may still be high for some of you, but I think it is more realistic for me. If I get there, my goal may change, but for now, that is what I am shooting for.

    I am 5'3" and I have a lot to lose, so my first goal is to get to 175. My ultimate goal is about 125. Seems like so far to go--almost 100 pounds to lose total. Looking forward to getting help and support from you!

    108, but more importantly 14-16% body fat.

    145. I'm in my 40s and don't want to be unrealistic.
    When I get to 145 and think I can go smaller, then I will.

    At first, my goal weight was 133 (started at 161 lbs). I am now down to 142 lbs...so I have about 9 more lbs to lose....BUT I am thinking of changing it to 125 lbs....I am in a size 6 now, but would love to get into a comfortable size 5.

    My lowest weight was 124lbs and altho thats a healthy weight my family were saying i look awful and too thin and my best mate got right worried about me :/ I do have big boobs tho so maybe that contributes to a big chunk of that weight lol.

    So my target for now is my old weight of 124lbs but im think i wanna be somewhere between 112 and 119lbs. Just hate that my face goes dead skinny and horse like :/

    Shooting for 135. That would put me at a size 6 most likely maybe even 4.

    145 for me. That was my wedding weight and I felt really good there. I have a hard time maintaining anything less than that.

    i want to be around 120 lbs, give or take a few lbs

    im gonna get to that first then see how it goes, but i feel like i might even need to be less than that to get rid of my gross love handles, they are NOT cool

    This for sure.
    I'm not dead set on being 120, if I feel good about myself at 125 I won't hate myself over those 5 pounds.

    I'm 5'2 and a half :P My ultimate goal weight is 110 just because I gain most of my weight in my midsection. I would be happy with 115-120. I weigh 132 as of now.

    I am really not sure because I am much stronger then I ever have been. I am going more for size I think. Right now I weigh 151 and I am a size 8 skirt/dress and 31- 7 for all mankind jeans. I think because I weight train I weigh more but look fitter then I did when I weighed less.
    I would like to be a size 4-6 and am guessing that will be somewhere around 130? Maybe 125?
    I actually really love my curves that I have now and don't want to get super skinny. Just want to lose a bit more fat and tighten up my stomach more. Totally going for a 6 pack over skin and bones :)
    I am more like 5"2.5 :-)
    I am in my 40s and feel fit and strong looks better then just super skinny.

    I totally agree!
    When I get out of a "decade" of weight, It's the best!!
    I'm hoping to be in the 170's for the next time I see my boyfriend, for Valentine's!

    I like using sizes too, but they can vary so much!
    I have old jeans that I can't fit into anymore, I use those.

    Good luck!! :D:D
  • I got down to about 125 at my lowest. I would have liked to have been down to 120 but my body extra skin that wont go away makes it difficult for me. So I am back up to about 142 and my new goal weight is 130 - 135. Probably a little heavier than what others would like or think but I am ok with it :) Isnt that what its all about - what is healthy and I can be ok with? :)

    My first goal was 135, but now I am shooting for 125-127, I am 129 now, so I don't think the few pounds will make a huge difference but I am working on lowering body fat and building lean muscle. I am a size 4 and don't want to go any smaller than that. Good luck!
