5'8" Ladies, what's your ideal weight?

aimforhealthy

I'm 5'7 1/2" (so almost!!) and in my late 30s. Very hourglassy, but very very narrow framed. I weighed 117-125 in high school and college as a dancer, and while I was very slender, I still had curves (C-cup, size 4/6). I've lost 40-something pounds from my highest weight of 202 in January 2013 and now weigh about 155 lbs (DD cup, size 8/10).

I think to be really fit and lean again, I'd have to lose about 25 more pounds of body fat. Because I am hourglassy and my weight/extra padding is very evenly distributed over my frame, most people I tell this to think that would be really "drastic" - even though that would still be 15 lbs heavier than I was in my 20s when it wasn't "too drastic" then either. Shrug. I'll see when I get to 140 what I look like and adjust my expectations from there.
