    I'm 5'4" and my GW is somewhere between 128-130.
    At my heaviest ever, I was 157 seven years ago.
    When I started MFP, I was 152 (fluctuating between 145-155 mostly for the last 5 years) and my CW is 146.
    At my skinniest in College, I was 122 and looking back, I looked sickly.... so, my comfort zone is between 128 (weight in HS) and 130 (sounds like a good round number).

    Funny how a lot of people's goal weight (including mine) is from High School... wonder if it has anything to do with how happy we were back then? Not that I'm not happy now, but it was such a fun, carefree, time for me. Are we trying to capture some of that with our goal weight? Hmmmmm

    I am 5'4" and originally was thinking 135-140, BUT then my husband I am seperated from who has a girlfriend announced to me that she thinks she's fat because she is at 130 and can't seem to lose weight (boohoo). So I know you're suppose to lose weight for yourself but just out of spite I would like to be 129 ;)

    Height- 5'5"
    SW-220
    CW-214
    Dr's idea of my goal weight-115
    Mine is anything below 140

    I have a very small frame. I can't even claim my weight is due to big bones. lol

    5'5
    Starting Weight: 169lbs
    Current Weight: 152lbs
    Goal Weight: 130lbs

    I started in Jan 2012 but by march had only lost around 3lbs so decided to join MFP for motivation/inspiration/tracking - haven't looked back since, my intially 'quick' loss has passed and now I'm happily losing around 1 - 1.5lbs per week.

    I've plotted if I continue at this rate I will reach from goal at the start of November, I used to want quick results but I've come to accept it doesn't happen overnight, so I'm good with the first week of November!

    Always looking for new MFP friends so please feel free to add me x

    I am 5'5" and currently at 205 lbs but have always been around 125-130 before my daughter. My goal is 150 for now but would love to be at my pre baby weight of course, but taking it one pound at a time for now.

    I'm 5'3" small frame and my ultimate goal weight is 120. My lowest adult weight was 135 and I still had lots of extra fat so I think 120 will be good, it all depends on how I look and feel.

    I'm 5'3'', I like to run a lot, so I'm maintaining about 107lbs. I feel my best at this weight, and it works for me. I think it all just depends on what fits your lifestyle :). I do have a quite a bit of muscle too from doing strength training with my own body weight, I hardly ever use free weights.

    5'4", and my goal weight is around 105; currently around two or three pounds away, give or take a few. It depends on your frame and goals!

    I'm just over 5'5 and my goal is 135. Lots of yo-yo dieting and fad dieting has always been my obstacle (along with thick Italian genes and the thighs to prove it!). Now I have committed to clean eating, lots of fruits and veggies and lean proteins and soy. I've eliminated dairy and processed foods and I feel great! Hope I can stay committed to my exercise goal of 4 days a week and not fall too far off the wagon on weekends. 8 pounds to go!

    I'm 5'3" and my goal is 120 lbs. I have a small frame and could go as low as 110 lbs but if it's muscle then it can be more.
