    I'm 5'1". Current weight is 157.4. Goal weight is 130-135. Starting weight was 192.

    A lot of people seem to think there is a small window of healthy weights for your height but there is actually a pretty good sized range. Those standard charts don't take into account things like body type and muscle.

    I am 5ft tall and would like to be 120lbs. As of right now i am 194lbs but my starting weight was 275lbs. I know they say i should be 100lbs for my height but i honsetly could never imagen being that small. I think as long as i feel healthy and am closer to the stander number then thats all that matters.

    I'm 5'2" and my goal weight is about 135-140. I can't picture myself being as low as it recommends. I'd like to have a few curves :)

    I am 5'2". I had always stuck around 115-120. Recently I got up to 140 after changing some habits and job situations. Not I'm trying to at least get back into the 120's with a goal of 115.

    I think my realistic goal is actually 140.

    I'm fairly well-endowed in the chestal region and I don't tend to lose up there. So, I think at 140 I will be happy with the rest.

    I'm 5' 3" and my goal weight is 125 for now. If I am going strong with my diet and exercise I may go to 110.

    I'm 5'1...Ive gotten as low as 122 and while I was at my heaviest (180) I thought I'd be happy at 120..but I wasn't. I think 110 would be best

    I'm 5' 3/4" and 30 yrs old. My body isn't meant to be 110 lbs, I was 113 in high school and I looked sick. Discussed it with my doctor and she said that based on my frame/age, anywhere between 130 and 140 is great. So I've set my GW at 138. If I can lose more than that, great. But I think I'm pretty close to where my body wants to be, which is fine with me, I feel great!!
