I've noticed that most women on here are tiny and trying to get down in the 120-110s. That's awesome for them, but I'm a big girl at 5'8", and I need more friends that have goals like mine! My starting weight on mfp was 165, I'm at 160, and my goal is 149. Anyone else similar to me? Please don't tell me I'm the only Amazon here!

My goal is either 140 or 150 for now. I'm 5'5"
If I get down to 140 and think I can lose like 5 more I will.0 -
I'm not big as in tall (5'5"), but my goal weight is 180lbs for now and will probably change to 160-170lbs, which should put me at 25% body fat. I'm very muscular and I have no desire to weigh less than 150lbs ever. Wouldn't work well for my large frame.0

I'm 5'8, trying to get to 175 from 240 (at 229 now). I'm told I'm built like a tank. ;P0

6', 224 getting down to 18% body fat (currently at 36% BF).

Well, I am 5'4'', so not tall, but my goal weight will be between 140 and 155.0

Well, I am 5'6" and weigh 294lbs. So, I am a big girl. When I started, I was 370lbs. I want to get down to 174lbs. So, I have a ways to go. So, don't feel bad, there is enough of us big girls here for you.0

I'm 5 5 wanting to get down to 150 to 145.0

I know what you mean about some of the goal weights - some people on here have got really small frames but there are quite a few of us statuesque types lurking on here! I'm 5'8" and my goal weight is your current weight - I've got broad shoulders, large chesticles and big hips and I know what weight suits me having been there before - curvy is just the way I'm built!0

5'9 goal weight between 170-150.0

I'm glad I'm not the only one, I was starting to feel kind of bad about my goal weight and height! I'll never be a size 2, ever, but I love my curves so its alright.0

You are not the only one. I am a small 5'2", but i am in the (High) 200's wanting to get down to at least 160.0
-
I'm a big girl trying to get to 160 I'm at 230 now ..0
-
I am 5'4" and a starting weight of 284lb, I am down to 277lbs currently and my goal is between 175- 200lbs. I am not looking to get really skinny, just healthy. But you aren't alone.0
-
I noticed that too. I started out 5'6 and 196 lbs, and I am now 165 pounds with a goal of 155.0
-
I'm 5'4" and my goal is to get to 142.0
-
I'm 5'8, 368lb. I would be out of my mind happy if i can get under 200lb. 199lb would be just fine with me.0
-
I'm 5'7" with an ultimate goal of around 150-160. Long way to go, though!0
-
I am only 5'4.5" - I would LOVE to be 5'8" - but no matter what I do, I won't grow Guess I will have to stick to heels. Oh, and just hit 127lbs - and now, concentrating on toning! OH YA!!!0
-
5'10 and a bit, however a have a really thin build0
-
i am 5'8", 42 years old and have lost 29lbs so far toward my initial goal of 60 lbs to take me to 160lbs. Love friends, feel welcome to add me0
-
5'8 3/4 currently 183 (SW 193, GW 147-154) Broad shoulders, narrow waist and 'child bearing' hips:laugh: also very top heavy!!0
-
160 at 5'8 doesnt sound that "big"0
-
I'm 5'3"--not tall but not "tiny" either. My goal is 150 and then re-evaluate from there. I'm really don't think I'll ever be in the 110-120 range. I don't want that. My sister is 5'4" and got down to 112 and she looked terrible. Keep in mind--I am 55 and sis is 51 so the wrinkles show more when we lose weight and we end up looking tired all the time. Seriously, there are many of us here that do not have really low goals. Hang in there!0
