    I'm 5'7" but my doctor said I shoot for around 170, though I'm secretly hoping for 155-160 haha.

    My gal is around 155. :smile: Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. That depends on my body shape and if I like it. :laugh:

    I also wonder about us ladies with very large breasts and how that affects our bmi.
    I'm assuming I will lose a bit off my boobs but even when I was at my smallest I was still an e cup. And boobs are heavy lol

    Right now, I'm shooting for 145, but I will judge it as I get closer. I am 5' 8 1/2"

    I'm 5'8 currently 152 pounds (69kg) want to be back to 143 (65kg) or so. I'm medium build and size E cup as well. Last time I was at goal weight I went down to DD.

    I'm about 161 right now, and maintaining without really trying. I'm a US size 10, sometimes 8. My highest was 178. I have my goal at 150, but to be honest, I feel VERY appealing at 157. I'm in front of cameras a lot, though, so 150 would probably work really well, if I can ever get that low, and I'm assuming that would put me around a size 6. I'm fairly busty too, but the girls do fluctuate a LOT (DD at my heaviest, once in awhile a big B at my lowest--which challenges my identity as a busty girl, lol)

    I'm 5'9" and very much apple shaped. I started at 205; now between 170-175. I love my hips-butt-thighs right now, and my boobs haven't shrunk too much (went from DD to D), but I still have a buddha belly. The goal I have in mind is 155, but really I would just like a waist:hip ratio <1!!

    I haven't fitted into a dd since I was about 14.
    I'm hoping if I reach my goal weight I'll get down to an e though :)

    SW: 160
    CW: 152
    GW: 130

    I set my goal weight pretty low, and with the amount of weights I like lifting, I don't know if it'll happen. I think a part of me wanted a lower GW because this site is wonderful...I didn't want a goal that I'd reach right away!

    5'8", currently ~164 pounds, aiming to get back down in the 145-150 pound range, where I was comfortably a size 9 or 10 (US). I would like to be smaller, but with the distances I run and the weights I lift, I bet I'll get to my goal body before I get to what was once my goal weight (135 pounds).

    Same! I figure I'll see how I feel when I get closer. I'm sure you get to a certain point where weight just doesn't come off anymore and your body gets to a "happy spot."

    I started at 185, now 165 and I want to get to 145. Thats what I weighed a few years ago and I was a size 6. I cant wait!

    164 is the high end of the healthy BMI range for my age. That is what I am shooting for. Anything more than that is bonus :smile:

    i'm 5'8 and always maintained after high school in the 150s. then it crept up and up and up and i hit 164 which was time for me to make a change. my original goal was 130 because i was 140 in hs and still could have lost a few more pounds.

    i'm currently 145ish but my new goal is to build muscle and lose fat so not really sure what the scale is going to say but i want to lose as much fat as possible!!

    also i'm a size 8/9 currently and with my body that is probably the lowest size ill get to to. at my heaviest i fit into 10/11.

    I want to be 100..but that's because I have an eating disorder. You can call me crazy if you'd wish.

    I'm 5'8. My starting weight was 142, I'm currently 133 and my goal is 120. I'm 32 years old with 2 little kids, I think I've got at least 5 more pounds to lose in my belly.

    Im 5'7, and generally sit around 62-63kilos naturally, size10 NZ. Would love to be about 58kg (127), and more an 8/10 but this could go upwards depending on muscle.

    Am 5'9 and 146. Want to be 141. Mainly to lose pot belly. Although I am starting to build up some muscle so pretty relaxed if my weight doesn't go down and just rearranges itself. At my heaviest I was 160 but visually the difference was pretty major.

    Im 158. Goal About 147. A small UK 12. I once went down to 133, but I literally did not eat (also, I was in my twenties then). I don't know if I'll ever get there, I do love my food very much. My main goal now is just to increase my muscle definition and my fitness levels.

    I'm aiming for 143 pounds. I'm currently 172. Was 110 when first got this height but was gross. dont want to be any lower than 143 (weird number i know, but converting from kg which is 65)

    80kg/176lb - I'm built on a very large scale, and I suspect much less is likely to be unrealistic for me, but I'll reassess when I'm closer to that point. Currently I'm 92/203 and a UK 16-18. I'd like to be a 12-14.

    I have NO idea, because I've always been overwight, so I don't know how I'll look! I'm aiming for 132lb, but I could change my mind either way!
