    I started at 147 and now I'm at 115. Original goal was 125-130 because I didn't know if I could do it. Changed goal to 115-120 and hit that a couple months ago. Now maintaining.

    Best part about the weight loss is that I'm a runner, and I'm A LOT faster with 32 less pounds to lug around.
    Worst part is finding clothes that fit. Vanity sizing is out of control.

    Hi, I'm 5'4, currently 134, and my goal weight is 125. I don't mind the curves, I just don't want to be soft, if that makes any sense? haha

    Count me in at 5'4" too!

    I started out at 255, and am currently working to get to 200. Ultimately, I'd like to end up at 150-160, which would keep me nice and curvy.

    Here too! I got sick of myself at 176 (June 2010) and have been as low as 140 (October 2011). Now back at about 152 but hoping for 125-130. Not sure how the fat loss/muscle gain equation will affect the number on the scale--I'm more concerned with what I see in the mirror and how my clothes fit. Which right now is not to my liking.

    I am 5' 4" (well 5' 4" and half but no need to be too technical!). My starting weight was 167.8lbs and I am currently aiming for 145lb, then I will reevaluate. I have always had a "dense" body type and even at 150 I was in a size 6. I may revise my goal weight once I get to 145lb but for now 22.8 lbs to lose was daunting enough so that's where I'm starting.

    Also, I am aiming for a weight loss of 1lb per week. I am doing this so that I have VERY achievable goals each week and won't get discouraged if I "only" lose a pound in a week.

    Good luck!

    I am right there with you--5:'4" and 143. I'm hoping to get to 125 eventually. I got down to 109 when I went through a divorce a few years back, but I think I would be happy at 125 now. I would love to lose 2 to 3 pounds a week, but not sure if I can do it.

    I think it all depends on how you are built/shaped. I am very curvy and weigh 210lbs! Although my Dr. wants me to get down to 170lbs, I would feel more comfortable between 145 - 155. However, it all depends on how I look and feel once I get closer to my goal.

    I am roughly 5'4" and my current goal weight is 150. I am at 170 now and started MFP back at 194. I will get to 150 and see how I look and feel.

    I was the same way. I went from 199 to 145 and then stayed between 145-155 for about a year.
    I recently went to a weight loss doctor and he had me reduce my carb intake and run intervals instead of the normal 3 mile run I did every day. I've lost 9.5 pounds in the past week and half so it seems to be working!
    Good luck!

    I am 5'4 and just reached one of my weight loss goals. I started in the 190's earlier this year and am now 150. I feel incredible. My ultimate goal would be 130 for a solid and healthy BMI, but for right now my short term goal is to reach 145 to have a "healthy" BMI at < 25 and this goal is right around the corner.

    I have been wondering about the right weightloss goal for me. I am a petite and 143 pounds right now. I have looked through MFP for people like me and i have noticed that, the threads for short people are generally full of 5 feeters and below. So what about success stories from 5ft 4inchers and the ideal weight for us?

    i am also 5ft 4,and i weigh 145.so we are very close. i plan on going back to 115 what i was before i got pregnant.
