    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.

    You are my hero......:flowerforyou: My bodyfat % at 167 was 29% - I'm 176 now and my bodyfat is down to 23%.....Guess which weight I like most?

    Exactly! I would much rather weight 175 and have 23% body fat....congrats to you on your success! I hope to get down to 20% and I'm sitting around 30% right now. I don't care what I weigh when I get there!

    I was kind of in the same boat. I'm 5'6.5" with a goal of 140. Got stuck at 153 and couldn't get below. I started doing just 3 days per week of high intensity intervals (walk briskly for 3 minutes, sprint for 1) and I started losing again. I am currently at 149.

    I am 5'8, I just started a few weeks ago at 193.6 and I am now 192. I would love to be 160...or at least like to feel like I weigh that much (tone more from weight training).

    I would love some more MFP friends...feel free to add me! :)

    I'm 5'7 with a starting weight of 172, current weight of 168. I'm hoping to be 135 soon.

    ETA 135 is just a number smack in the middle of what would be a healthy BMI for my height. My actual goal is much more appearance related and I'm getting there.... slowly slowly slowly.

    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.

    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. :)
