    It always fascinating to see the different goals for us short gals. Frame size is so important and can drastically change your goal weight. I am 5ft 1 and have a larger frame for a shortie. Anything under 122lbs. for me and people ask if I've been sick. :smile:

    I'm 5'2", started my journey at 199! Looking to get down to 125, although they said that a healthy weight for that height would be 135.

    Im 5'3" weight 150lbs, would like to be say my goal would be 128 but think if i can get to 134 its a much more achievable and realistic goal for me. This I want to like to achieve certainly for mid June when I go on holiday! As I have 'only' managed to lose 4lbs since February despite keeping more or less within my 1200 allowance, eating back exercise calories and now on day 20 of the 30 day shred i think I progress could be a bit slower than I would like!

    5'2" here. Started at 162, currently 141 with a goal weight of 130. I'm 43, so I don't want to get too skinny. It's sad how our face is the one place that needs fat, but easy to lose it there. :( Funny, because ten years ago I would have considered 130 "fat".

    I am 4ft5 1/2in(20 yrs old) with a starting weight of 156 and I hope to get to about 120(maybe more depending on how i feel when i get there. I started MFP last June and lost about 15 pounds between June and Sept. I then had a surgery and completely stopped. March 2 I got on the scale and almost got sick. I had gained 11 of the 15 pounds I lost putting me at only 3-4 pounds lost. Since getting back on I have lost 9 pounds and 14 total. I am finally starting to feel great again and hope to get into the summer clothes I bought last summer because of my weight loss. :)

    I'm 5ft3 and I'm 145lbs,(10st 5lb) my ideal weight should be (9st3lb) 129lbs but i'm happy staying at 145lbs because i dont want to look gaunt. i'd rather look like a picture of health.

    I am 5"3 started at 155 and aiming for 131. As someone has already said, if older you need to choose between being super skinning and having an 'old' face or keeping a bit of padding while staying at a healthy weight, which is what I am going for. I am almost 42 and think that much lower than 131 would not look good on me at all. Having had two kids my days of wanting to expose my belly are long gone too lol, though I still want to be slim and healthy.

    I am 5'2" and currently 173. Goal is 135 for overall health and possibly later 125 for beauty. Health first and foremost.

    I'm 5' 4", 46 years young. Started at 147 with an original goal of 125, now at 127 - changed my goal a bit to not worrying so much about the scale and wanting to build muscle, of course, since I stopped worrying about the scale and upped my weight training, downed my cardio and upped my calories more weight is coming off. I'd like to see me at a tight, healthy 125.

    Hi I am new to MFP (about 3 weeks in now) started my weight loss journey in January when I weighed in at 169 lbs and I am 5 feet 1. I weigh 154 lbs now and my goal is 125-130. I am currently 42 years old. I have lost almost 6 lbs since starting this program and still looking for more friends so feel free to add me. I find this site excellent for encouragement and ideas for success...so good luck to everyone with their goals.
