    I'm 5'1 and my goal is 112, which is just above my prepregnancy weight of 111. I've been 102 and looked (IMO) totally fabulous, but it's not maintainable for me. I maintain quite easily at around 110-112 on my medium frame.

    I'm 5'5.5" (call me 5'6", call me 5'5", don't call me late to meals), and my goal is 135. The last time I was under 200 lbs, I was a newlywed 19 year old. The last time I weighed 150, I was 10. I think 135 was 2nd grade-ish? I've never been thinner than 180 in my teen/adult life.

    I'm 5'2 (otherwise know as a midget) :laugh: I kid I kid!!! But I am short. My goal weight is 135, when I eventually make it there, I might readjust and try to get a little lower than that.

    well i have pretty small wrists and hands etc, so i would lean towards small/medium frame size... and i am currently below my pre pregnancy weight, but i hate my thighs sooo much!!! wish it would all just go away from there. Ive been doing Jillian Michaels dvds for 6-7 weeks straight, but those inner thighs are still not so great!

    I am 5'6" and my goal is 150 as of right now.. I have no idea how much I weighed when I wore a size 10, So thats just where I am starting at.. I have a long way to go.. 110 lbs to be exact..... I was at my highest weight at 175 starting two months ago...(I joined, left and came back) I am currently 160 and work out every day, Its been a hard venture for me... BUT I AM DOING IT for me.. I am gettting Married in TWO years from today.. SO I WANNA BE A HOT BRIDE :) so if 150 still puts me at a bad place.. I WILL KEEP GOING.. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE :bigsmile:

    I'm 5'5 and my current weight is 160, my goal weight is 145. I might feel like more once I get there, I just think I'll be content at 145.

    There was a really good link someone posted a couple weeks ago (and can't remember what the topic was or anything - sorry!) that you could figure out the BEST weight based on not just your height, age, and sex, but bone structure as well. I've used this as a guide & it was accurate to the website:

    - SMALL if you can put your fingers around your wrist and they overlap
    - MEDIUM if you can put your fingers around your wrist and they touch
    - LARGE if you can put your fingers around your wrist and they do not touch

    I also gauge by my hips. There's only a tiny bit of fat left and my hips are still at 40" so I know I won't get much smaller than that...I remember the website said to measure the distance between the bones on your elbow. Mine are about 2.75" and that was classified as medium. Wish I remembered the site or the exact measurements for the rest!!!

    I'm 5'6 and my goal weight is 125, which is at the low end of normal for our height, at least according to Weight Watchers :o) Whatever makes you happy!

    I'm 5'7" and shooting for 140 lbs. which is mid range for my height. Having a tough time losing those last 10 pounds! I am sure being over 50 does not help! Just don't become obsessed with losing or a particular number; think about your overall health and happiness! Be happy with where you are if you are healthy!

    I'm 5' 8 and thinking around 150. I don't remember ever being below 180 so I'll gage it when I get there.

    I'm 6'0 and my goal weight is 160lbs which is right in the middle of the healthy weight range. I weight 174 lbs right now, which already puts me at healthy weight. But I want to lose at least 10 more lbs, 15 would be even better :)

    I am 5'5" and my goal right now is 150 from there I may try for 135. My real life goal is to not have a muffing top and to be at a healthy happy place. Numbers are not the biggest thing for me.
