    I'm 5'8

    160 WAS my original goal weight. But now I've realized with all the heavy lifting I do and beautiful muskels I have, 180 is where it's at.

    People need to stop being so hung up on scale weight. Body fat % is where it's at. Two 5'8 girls could both weigh 145 but one might be at 25% BF and the other at 19%....guess who is going to look like they weigh less? Weight doesn't mean anything.

    I like this post because I'm 5'7" and my goal weight is somewhere around 150. I have over 100 pounds to go and I've been overweight my whole adult life so I've often wondered what that weight will look like on my frame. I wanna be curvy but fit. Your pics are very inspiring, ladies! Thank you.
  • I'm 5'8" and weigh around 155-157 right now. I'd like to get down to 140 or even 135. Add me! I'd love to have some MFP friends in a similar range. :)

    Yes! I fit into this range fairly well. Im 5'8 and currently 160lbs. My goal is to reach 145lbs by Christmas! So far it's proving to be harder than I expected. I am also a fitness instructor.

    I am 5' 7'' and think I weigh about 165. I joined MFP after I had lost about 10 pounds just from making better food choices. I haven't weighed myself in a while because I was getting so tired of looking at the same number on the scale when I felt like I was shrinking...too defeating. So I am continuing to exercise hard, hydrate and watch my macros and I feel good and still appear to be getting smaller, which is what is important to me. Feel free to add me.

    I am 34 yrs old. I weigh 182 lbs. I got to my lowest at 157 while marathon training. I would love to get back to that again. I am very active-just completed an Olympic Tri but I dont think I am getting in a "fat burning" range in terms of my workouts. I am cutting out bad carbs this week and seeing if that helps. I am also adding weight lifting to my regimen! Any suggestions appreciated!! :)

    I don't think it's necessarily about a fat burning range. I think it's about the calories. When I trained for my first marathon I wasn't watching calories at all and ended up gaining a couple of pounds over the course of all those months of vigorous training. I was so surprised. Turns out I was taking in more calories as I was running more, so I gained. It's like "duh" to me, now.

    For my latest marathon, I had been on MFP for quite awhile, so I was used to watching my calorie intake. Since I was exercising more, but not taking in extra calories like last time, I actually lost weight this time. I do eat most, if not all, of my exercise calories back, but I earned those! You just don't want to eat all of your exercise calories PLUS a bunch more! :flowerforyou:

    I'm 5' 7" and started at 251 lbs in January 2011. I'm hovering between 181 lbs - 183 lbs. Ideally, I would like to see how 155 lbs looks on me and re-evaluate.

    I've been a pretty loyal member of MFP. Add me if you want support. I know I could use it. The more the merrier. :flowerforyou:
  • I'm 5'8" and weigh 161 (size 14). Started on 17 May at 189 (size 18).

    Feel free to add me but my progress is so slow now. 1 lb a week at the most, but at least it's in the right direction!

    I'm 5'7" and 160. My goal is 140 by April 2013. I've lost a total of 69 lbs since my daughter was born in August of 2010. It's been a slow process for me but I'm getting there! :happy:

    I'm 5' 8" and currently 163lbs. I'm aiming for my pre-baby weight of 140-145lbs. This is so hard though, because for me to weigh that I REALLY have to watch everything I eat all the time. My body wants to always plateau around 150 but I don't really feel like I look fit until I'm 145ish.

    I'm 5'7". I am waaayyyy over 165. I am up to 195 and trying to inch down to 170 :-(
  • I am 5'7 and weigh 190. I didn't mean to get that big but Coca Cola will do that to you. Just started eating better, drinking less Coke and more water and walking
  • :) Hi!! I am 5' 7.5" . Weight right now is 184-- Goal weight is 160- 165. I have a large frame and a few years ago when I got down to 158, people said I looked like I was sick, too boney. So, these days 164 is my goal- 160 for wiggle room when I get down to that weight! Would love to have new friends to go along with this journey- Add, if you like!

    Glad to have found this thread! I'm 5'7" and currently weigh 157 lbs. I would like to see 153 lbs. (my wedding day weight) and would love to see 148 lbs. (where I felt I looked best as an adult). My heaviest weight was 206 lbs. when I delivered my second son. Losing the baby weight has been more difficult that I would like it to be. Maybe we can support eachother and form a group?

    I am 5'8" and weigh 150lbs. I started out at 160lbs five weeks ago. I do weight-training as well as cardiovascular exercises while trying to eat smarter, better portions, more veggies, etc. My heaviest was 170lbs and my goal is to fit into my size 9 pants again that are collecting dust (approx 135-140lbs) Add me if you like for support and encouragement :) - Neek
