    I'm 5-4, small/medium frame (i'm right in the middle. how weird is that!), with an "athletic" body type. My first goal is 130, and then from there it's 125-120. But it also depends on how much muscle I have. I carry a good bit of muscle, even WITHOUT working out. It's just there! :laugh:

    Hi fellow 5'4ers!

    I am 25, 5'4 and currently 152. My highest weight was 160 or a little bit above. My goal is for 135. It has been extremely hard to get past this 150 hump for me. No matter what I do, I eat more, eat less, and I still maintain this 147-152 range! My next goal is to get to 145. 5 lbs shouldn't be this hard to lose!

    Height = 5' 4.25"
    SW = 235
    CW = 155
    GW = 120 - 125 or a Size 6 or, dare to dream, 4.

    My ultimate goal is to be FIT and STRONG more than hitting some number on a scale.

    Hello 5'4" 'ers!! I've been looking for other ladies like me. I am currently 165 ish and have several goals, but ultimately, I'd like to be around 135. It would be nice to be around 125, but we'll see. I'll be happy at 135 as long as I can maintain it. My main goal though, is to be more healthy. I've never eaten what is considered the right way, and I've never had to be active to maintain a lower weight or body type until the past few years.

    I signed up to re-teach myself, learn knew habits, and meet like-minded people. I also wanted to see examples of females around my height and weight who lost what I want to lose, so if you fit that, please request me. If you don't mind of course. I'd like to check out your diaries and see if I am on the right path : )

    Thank you all for this; I feel like I've been losing perspective. I'm 5'4", 25 y/o, and my start weight was 170. I'm now at 129, and I've been worrying that my goal weight of 125 will still look "fat." I think I'll just get there and then work on toning.

    I have been wondering about the right weightloss goal for me. I am a petite and 143 pounds right now. I have looked through MFP for people like me and i have noticed that, the threads for short people are generally full of 5 feeters and below. So what about success stories from 5ft 4inchers and the ideal weight for us?

    It really depends on body compostition (bone structure, musculature, shape, etc...) as much as height. I'm 5'4", and I know that my best weight is between 135-140lbs. I was a fairly athletic 145lbs in high school and I could wear a size 7/8 in most cases (I'm on the busty side, so sometimes I would have to get a button down top in a larger size). My mom is more or less the same height as me, but I can weigh ten pounds more than her and still wear nearly a full size smaller.

    Hi...I am 5'3 and started at 148...I am shooting for 135 which I weighed 2 years ago. I am 56 years old and find that the
    older I get the HARDER it is to maintain or lose :(

    I am currently 176 (started at 182). At first I thought 125 seemed like a good number but I am thinking 135. I have been doing strength training and have decided that I want to be fit and trim with muscle, not just skinny. 135 seems like the right number for now. I will re-evaluate when I get there.

    5'4.75"
    SW 232
    Cw 224.4
    Gw 170-180 or back to my high school size :)
    My goal wt is 180 for now, but when I reach that I want to get down to 170. That would get my BMI under 30. I am very busty and curvy, and I like it that way. I would just like to be in shape!!!

    I am 5'4''. Currently 215. At my smallest in high school (during sports seasons) I was around 115, but my BF% was extremely low. I figure 140-160 is where I will end up this time, but I'll evaluate as I get closer. I really am more concerned about a good BF% instead of weight on the scale. I am going more for how my body looks than how much it weighs.
