    I am 5'4" and my goal is to have a healthy BMI of 25 or lower which would be at least 145 lbs. I weighed 182 at my heaviest and have lost weight several times only to regain it. Currently, I weight 170 lbs with the help of MFP. My goal weight is 145 with new and lasting habits of good portion control, no mindless snacking and grazing, healthy choices, and 8 - 10 glasses of water daily. Also, I intend to add regular exercise at least 3 times a week. I will need encouragement and motivation and feel like this is a good site to get the help I need. I also,hope I can help others in return.:smile:

    Anyone around my height/weight care to share what their Net Cal's are? I only lose weight when my net is BMR which leaves me -294 daily calories or .59 weekly loss :'-(

    I'm 5'4" and my goal is 120lbs. About 148lbs now so I've got a ways to go :( But honestly, I'll be pretty happy with 130 and I won't mind if getting to 120 takes a little longer.

    I am 5'4", 21 years old, and have big bones and decent muscles under all this flab :)
    My ultimate goal is somewhere around 140. Right now I weigh around 300 pounds so I have a ways to go but I know it'll be so worth it. I've been using myfitnesspal for 2 weeks and already I've lost almost 5 pounds. I'm on the right track :D

    I'm 5'2 and 145 currently. Would like to be back to my lowest weight of 115. I may be that skinny again but still weight 130 with muscle weight, so who knows.

    I'm 5'3 and a half. I started at 154 and I'm aiming for 126 to begin with. I'm hoping to have built up a little bit of muscle by then so I'll reassess and set new goals if necessary.

    New friends with similar goals would be very welcome :)
  • Im 5'6 and im currently at 230. I want to get down to 155 but i dont want to look sick so i guess i will play it by ear.

    Hi everybody! I am about 5' 3" (keep shrinking every year it seems) and I'll be 49 in about 3 wks. My current weight is approx. 155 lbs. and I'd like to get down to 125-130. I think that's not too unrealistic. I was a skinny kid all my life, lost all my baby weight after two children, but the lbs. started packing on as I age. I don't excercise due to serious back issues (even walking kills me).

    Could someone point me in the direction of someone's public food diary that I could use as I reference? I know what I need to do, but have to start making some smart food choices.

    Thanks in advance! :smile:

  • I'm 5'3" and I'm just shy of 200lbs. My goal is 140.

    I had liposuction when I weighed 155lbs and I rocketed up 30 lbs within 4 months after surgery. 3 years later, and I'm now almost 200 lbs and went from a size 10 to a size 16.

    I am 5'4". My weight watcher goal to lifetime again is 141. I have been 135 and I liked that. I would love to get lower. I want to see if i can maintain that. I have lost 13 pounds so far with about 20 to go.
  • I am 5'4...m currently 162...new to MFP and my goal weight is 125-130.....fingers crossed.:smile:
  • I'm 5'5 and I want to be between 130-135lb. Once I get close to that weight, I want to tone , tone, tone.. :)

    between 100-110, depending how i feel (i have a few pounds to go til i reach 110). 5'4"
  • I am 5'5 and currently around 132. I would like to be 115-120. I really am comfortable with my body would just like for my stomach to be flatter and my thighs tighter. I just keep reminding myself that I just had a baby 2 months ago and it takes time, but I want results now! Thankfully I gained a healthy weight during pregnancy, 27lbs and am only a few lbs away from where I started!
  • Well I am 5'2".... sorry I am just shy of the title of this post. lol. My goal weight is 130-135. It all depends on how I feel when I get there though. I was at 140 at my smallest and people kept making remarks about how I was going to "Wither away." I just want to look healthy and feel healthy and I'll be happy! =) As long as I feel great that is all that matters!

    140 is my looooong-term goal, since its at the top of my healthy weight range, at almost 5'3".
    But right now I'm just looking to get under 200 again.

    I got down to 152 a few years ago and have gained since then.

    Then of course I want to keep it off which will be the really challenging part.
