I would like to get down to 105 pounds being 5'3" and I wonder if this will be too thin?

How much do you weigh in the pic? If that's current, losing anymore would be too thin IMHO.
I'm 5'3 and my realistic goal weight is 140. Possibly 130, but given my frame and muscle mass, any less than that I would look skeletal, which is not the look I am after.3 -

I currently weigh 109 and that is after eating a bunch of crap to gain 4 pounds up from 105 I got down to this summer. I looked HORRIBLE and did not realize it until I saw a picture of myself. My body looked great, my face looked like death.
Between 110 and 112 is what looks best on me.0 -
I'm 5'3 and mine is 115-120, however I'm not as focused on weight as body fat %, I want to be down to 16-18% body fat to start with, then maybe go down to 14%. I weighed 105-110 when I was in high school and looked borderline underweight at that size. However even though I'm petite (generally a size 0-4 depending on the store/fit/etc) my wrists are 5.5in so my bone structure is a little larger than some. I've seen some girls who are 5'3 and weigh 100lbs and look fine, just depends a lot on your body0

I'm 5'3.5" and my goal is 120. I guess it depends on your frame. I think though that even with a small frame the lightest is around 110lb to be healthy. I was 115 lbs in high school (ballet dancer, lots of muscle) and my husband thinks I looked too thin in my old pictures. I say take it in stride. I don't know what your current weight is, but maybe if you are above 120, reassess at that weight and see if you think you look too thin. If not, reassess at 115 or 110.
Here's a good site for weight ideals based on frame:

My goal is 120. I've been 103 and I looked skeletal. It is too thin, in my opinion.1
-
My goal is around 130. That's when I look healthy, feel great and have a good BMI as well. It really depends on what is healthy for your body and your shape.1
-
I'm 5'2' and would like to be 135...any less and I look sick!!!1
-
I'm 5'4 and my goal weight is 125, I weigh 130 now but im more worried about getting muscle mass.0
-
I am 5'3 and at my goal of 130. Don't plan on losing anymore, I have great muscle tone at this weight. I am a medium build and wear a size 4 in most brands.
Depending on your build, 105 may be too thin but it is your body and your preference. If u think 105 would be too thin then it probably is.0 -
I'm 5'4" and my goal weight is 140-145. I don't think i could get down any lower without losing muscle. So ya, 140 would be awesome!2
-
I'm just under 5'3" and my ideal weight is between 120 -128 lbs.0
-
My goal was 110 pounds. In my opinion I didn't look like I was lean enough but I'd already agreed with myself I'd start on a slow bulk once I hit 110 which is what I'm doing now.0
-
I am 5'3" and weigh 135 pounds right now, and I want to get to a weight between 115 and 120 pounds. I weighed 110 in college for a couple of years and my face looked starved even though my body looked great. So I don't want to go there again, despite having a small frame.0
-
I think it totally depends on your body type and what you feel comfortable with.
I am 5'3" and a half. I feel really good at 130 and anything less than 120 I look a bit sickly. The last time I was at that weight though, I had a lot of muscle from competitive training.0 -
5ft 3 and my goal is 130....0
-
I don't have a goal weight, but Do have a certain look I go for. It all depends on how you want to look.
Skinny or muscular. I am obviously going for the muscle. I don't weigh myself very often. I take my measurements and assess my health...strength, stamina, flexiblity, my athletic abilities are all taken into account.
This profile pic, I am around 130lbs and mid bulk. I gained a bit of fat, that I will shave off, but definitely gained muscle as well.0 -
My goal weight would be 123lbs.0
-
I'm going for 1200
-
Toned measurements of 31/28/36 at 5' 3.5". Weight is irrelevant to me as anything other than a general indicator of progress until I get access to BF% scales. I was skinny-fat at 116 (and about 30/27/35 - bust sizes are underbust, not full bust). I have 120 as my notional MFP target, but I'm expecting to be there or heavier with the muscle I'm looking for this time around.0
-
135 is my goal. I looked good at 135 when I was working out so was solid. I think I look healthy at that weight.1
-
I'm aiming for around 140, which will take me to the top of my BMI range, and I'm going to take it from there depending on how I look at that weight.0
-
Im looking around 135-140. we will see how i feel once i reach that0
-
I'm 5'4" and I'm thinking 120. I'm gonna see how I feel at 130. But I think I want to lose more. (I'm only 8 lbs away from that mark!)0
-
I was 140 a few years ago, lost a few more pounds at that time and people told me I looked poorly, so, this time around I will be happy with anywhere between 140-145. Very comfortable in UK size 12 is my aim, no matter what the scales say ;-)0
-
The healthy weight range for women 5'3" is 104-141lbs, so I'd say that 105 is definitely borderline too thin. Apparently, the 'ideal' weight for 5'3" is 122 lbs. so that's as low as I'll go. I originally set my goal at 139, but lowered it to 125 (I'm currently at 128) and I'll probably lower it again to 122lbs. and stop there.0
-
I'm a hair shy of 5'3" and currently weigh about 123-124. I look good, but I still have some fat to lose. My UGW is around 118, but with some muscle. Not sure if my body will be willing to do that. I stalled around 120 in the past and then put on a few pounds. I guess my body will decide what weight it wants to be! :-P
BTW, I'm a small frame and wear a size 6 in most pants. Still got a big booty no matter HOW much weight I lose. It's a genetic curse. LOL0 -
I'm 5'4 right now and 115. I float between 110-115 and that works for me, with a small frame. Frame size definitely makes a big difference, but I would say based on my own weight/body that your goal isn't unachievable or unrealistic, though you may look on the very small side. I get slack from everyone for being my size, just be prepared for that if you really want to get down too low.0
-
Really depends on your frame too...I am a large frame, and at 140 I didn't look too bad, just lightly thicker in some areas. Of course I never worked out then or anything like that...god High School was enough for me
I am aiming for 140ish and then down to 130 if possible...we will see. I would say tho that 130-140 is probably good!! I know for me 120 I will probably be too thin, but we will see when I get there. I still have a long way to go.0 -
5'3 here and want to be at 110lbs..I'm almost there;)0
-
my goal is around 140 I looked the best then0
