    I'm 5'1" and before gaining weight in my mid 20s I was between 98-105lbs. Looking back at some pics I don't think I looked too skinny, I still had hips and butt, but now that I tell people I would like to be 115lbs, they think I'm crazy and that I would look sickly...That discouraged me for a very long time, but now i try not to care anymore.


    98-105 lbs is still normal range for your height (if you have a small frame) I am in the same boat and people think I am crazy for being in the low 100's but I am short with a small frame so it's a healthy weight. Keep at it and dont let anyone discourage you to keep healthy. :smile:

    I do not really have a goal weight per se - I am 5 6" and am aiming for a 20 - 22% BF, which is anywhere between 150 - 160lb, depending on my LBM.

    Im with you on this. Im 5'3 and aiming for 20% BF. I dont care what the scale says. I will probably be around 140 because of my LBM

    I need to find out my bf %... Easiest option of bf scales is out though because of my PM...

    Bodyfat scales are stupidly inaccurate anyhow.

    I'm 5'6" and my goal is 160 lbs. I would still be overweight according to my BMI, but this is my main goal -- I will build on it from there :)

    I'm 5'7" and would ideally like to be about 135-145. I don't know what that looks like, so I'll probably wait and see. When I look good and feel good I'll know I've reached my goal, no matter what number that is.

    I'm 5'4" (or around there anyway). My original goal weight was 150lbs and I've been at or below that since Sept 2010. :) I know a lot of women my height consider this too heavy, but I think it is perfect for me AND it is very easy for me to maintain (which is a HUGE deal for me).

    I'm 5'8" and 115 right now. I'd love to be back to 110. But I'm really just wanting to tone up my thighs and lose the fat that's there.
