    I am 5'1 and I would feel good at 120-125...but once I get there I will see how I feel about going down closer to 115. On my frame any smaller than that would look a little too small I think. I have a very hourglass shape and I don't want to loose all the curves :)

    my first goal weight when I was starting out was 120. now that I'm 120, my second goal weight 110 and ultimate goal weight is 100.:D.

    Anyway my height is 4'11.5-5'0.

    5'4, Goal of 120.

    I kind of peaked at 134-140 and Its been difficult shedding the remaining 20 but I hope to do it before next summer.

    I'm 5'0" and my target weight is 120lbs. Right now I'm at about 132 lbs. I have found that about 120 is where I'm the happiest. Anything less than that, I start to lose my chest and butt and begin to look too skinny for my preference.

    Wow, I feel like a totes fatty mcfatterson. 5'1 cw 220 ugw 160 :/ at 16 when I was working out hours a day and eating very little I only got down to 125. I am just a naturally big girl. At 160 I would be rocking a size 10 and would be curvy as hell!! Truth is, I have doubts I will ever see that number again on the scale but I will try!!

    One way.. is to pick a celebrity who's body you want, obviously same height as you..

    take a pick from the catalogue,... .. scroll thru the link below,..and this is your motivator

    http://forums.soompi.com/discussion/42642/updated-short-female-celebrities

    research the weight of that celeb and don't let anything stop you ...
    at first glance..and from a males perspective Lucy Liu is a good candidate!

    ps. Obviously exercise is an important factor if you want Serena Williams' body!
  • 5'1 right now I'm around 114. I'd like to get down to 98
  • 117!
