    My ultimate goal is to maintain a weight of 135. That's what I was in high school. But right now... I think be happy with 150.

    I'm 5'6, in the 130s, not really trying to lose weight but 126 looks good on me so maybe that while retaining lean muscle.

    Goal: 140-145 and/or a size 6 I think, but not sure since I haven't weighed 140 since... elementary school? :)

    I'm 5'6, and currently weigh 213.
    I'm aiming for 155 for now, but will definitely adjust it once I get there, depending on how I feel!

    I'm still trying to figure that out. Hopefully reading through other's posts will help me out. I haven't been healthy for at least 15+ years, and honestly can't tell you what I weighed in high school or college or if that would even be healthy for me now. I've never been skinny. I think I have more of an athletic build- a lot of muscle (under the fat ). :)

    Any advice on how to figure out what a good goal weight is or will I just know it when I see it?

    Right now I just want to get to 191 before I turn 35 (next Friday). Only 1.5 lbs to go according to this mornings weigh -in.

    I am 5'6" and set a goal of 137, but would be happy with 140. I have a large frame and larger calf and leg muscles from my younger years as a gymnast and dancer. I'd even settle for 150.

    5' 5.5, and i want to be 120 from 130. Although i'd rather just tone up.. i'm doing bits of cardio along with strength exercises. I'm sick of being considered 'skinny-fat'..

    I am 5'7 and 156 lbs, my goal is 140 to 145 but toned. So I am willing to compromise on the number on the scale. Go more by inches then weight.

    I am 5'7 and my goal is 160. I want to be toned, not skinny truthfully. Last time I lost weight people thought I was sick when I got below 160.

    Anything under 140, cw 160, feel free to add me, seems easier to do with others.

    I'd love to be down t 160 lbs. After I reach that I will see how I feel and how I look. Then possibly another 10-20 lbs. I'm 5'7" currently 202.4 can't wait to see 199 either! Starting weight was 260.

    Aiming for 140, but once I'm at 155 I'll be pretty chuffed with myself!!
