    5'8" here, and I've always been heavy. Even when I was SUPER athletic and NOTHING jiggled, I was still a good 165 lbs. That was a long time ago though, now EVERYTHING jiggles.

    SW: 227
    CW: 217
    GW: 150. I'm not sure if this is realistic though, because when I was super athletic and fit before, I was never near 150. We'll see.......

    I'm 5'8"

    At my highest weight I was 190
    CW: 166
    GW: 145ish. I would be happy anywhere in the 140s.

    I'm not sure what my "frame" is. I would say mediumish? I know I will always have wide hips and big thighs but my top half gets small. I wear M shirts right now. 10 pants.

    5'8 CW: 238. I think my goal weight would be somewhere between 160-170. Ultimately, I'd love to be a size 6/8.

    CW is 225 GW is 172 and I will see then. I'm losing 1 lb per week so I guess I have a year until I have to worry about that darn scale!!! :tongue:

    I know I should be happy losing a pound a week but I'm an impatient girl.

    I have 150 on my ticker so maybe that's ultimate.

    I'm 5'9" and shooting for 150 although I would be super pleased to hit 140. Which is what I have always weighed untill about the last 3 years.

    My goal is more a size than a weight. I'm 5'8" and wear a size 14. My goal is to get down to a size 10 at least preferably a 9.

    I'm 5 '7 and currently 139lbs aiming for 136lb - but If I get there I'll probably want to less - cos I'm female and never happy!!! :wink:
    Can't imagine being 115lb don't think I'm the right build...

    I am 5'8"..I started on MFP at 212 with an original goal of 165. CW is 161.5. I would like to aim for 145-140 now, but would probably be happy with 150. I have a larger frame and I don't want to look too skinny. I do like my curves!!

    I am 5'8 and my goal weight is 135 - I started at 166 and my original goal weight was 145, after reaching that I reassessed and figure I can loss another 10lbs, while working on toning.

    Feel free to friend me :)

    5'8" here and my target weight is 135 or 140 max. Loooong way to go though.

    5'8" here. My "starting" weight in April was 152 pounds. I'm now down to 138 pounds and thought my goal was 135, but now that I'm so close I think 130 pounds might be more appropriate. I still have a good bit of belly fat to burn and not sure losing those 3 pounds is going to be enough. The number isn't my main focus. I just want the belly flab gone for the first time in my life. =)

    I'm tall... 5' 11". I currently weight 163 lbs. My goal is to weight 145 lbs again as I did for many years. The weight doesn't seem to melt off me the way it did when I was younger!

    I am 5'7 and my goal is 130 lbs. I would say I have a medium size hour glass figure shape.

    Sw: 166
    Cw: 158
    Gw: 130
    Once I hit my goal I hope to tone up a bit more!

    I'm 5'8" and currently weigh 164 lbs. I would like to be a super lean 145. I'm hoping to fit into a size 6 and sometimes a size 4 at this weight. I have a medium frame.

    I'm 5'8 and although my tentative goal is 165....I don't really care as long as my fat % is below 20%. Weight is just a number to me...I don't care if I weigh 200 pounds as long as 20% of it or less is fat. I think people are way too hung up on scale weight.

    5'7... looking to maintain between 138-142. (Stuck at 144 for a few weeks now!) But I agree with JenLuvSushi. My main goal is to be below 20% body fat. Currently ~22%.
