    I'm 5'9" and weight 145 (give or take a few pounds, I fluctuate a lot especially if I eat high amounts of sodium). I was 138 for my wedding last October and losing those 7 pounds was hard as hell. I'm much more comfortable at 145! I eat healthy/normal and work out almost daily. Size 6. Maintained this weight for 14 years now. Was a size 16+ as a young adult.
    Good luck ladies!

    Im 5'9 as well. My goal is to be at 180, truthfully Im going to throw a party when that scale says under 200! my trainer says i should be 150, but once i make it to 180 ill see how i look and feel. I know workig out causes a weight gain but i just want to be able to look in the mirror and be proud! a bikini would be nice too.

    I'm 5'9. Current 122. Goal 132. I have a small frame so I don't look too thin, I just want to gain weight to be a little curvier. Curvier with a lot of muscle I mean. Already rocking the 6 pack, continually working on bulking the behind =)

    Im 5"9 1/2. My lowest was 155.4 and I was told I was to skinny buy almost everyone I worked with. I think my goal this time will end up being around 170ish. Before I was scrony. I want to be strong!!! I was a size 8-10. SO hopefully i'll be that size again.

    I'm 5'9" and my original goal weight was 140 pounds but I passed that and ended up at 115.

    I'm gaining some back (on purpose, yes - want some muscle!) and am now at 122 and it looks good. I'd still like more muscle so I am not worried at all about the scale now, except to hopefully make it go up!

    I think what weight looks good on you varies from person to person and has a LOT to do with how much muscle you plan on having.

    I am 5'9 and my goal as of now is 160. Once I get there, I will then determine if I want to go lower, maybe to 150 or 145...

    I'm 5'9
    Currently 163. Just started logging and working out after a few months of falling off the wagon. Already down 3 lbs but I won't update until next Monday. When I first began my journey last year I got down to 153. I would like to maintain between 145-148.

    If it helps, I'm 5'8" and my goal weight is 155...which was my approximate weight in my profile photo. I carry more weight in my thighs and hips and about none in my chest. I'm going to assume that if you're busty you'd need more weight or you'd look like a Barbie Doll Wannabe.

    I'm 5'9" and I am shooting for 165, which would put me at a size 12/14. I know from experience that with my frame, that's about as low as I can/should go, and it puts me happily in the normal range.

    I'm 5'9 1/2, and I thought I looked good around 180 in high school. My body composition has changed due to strength training. My goal is around 175-180. When I was lower than that people said I looked anorexic in my face.
