women 5ft 6/7in!!!

Hi, I just joined today, but looks like we are very similar. I am in the US and use pounds but I am 140 lbs (i looked up 63kg and it said 138/139 pounds). I am shooting for 128 or a 12lb loss. 1 stone equals 14 lbs. My daily goals are 1300 calories. I am already working out 5 days a week for 30 minutes each time. What are your daily goals? (Oh btw, I am 5'7" too.)

Good luck!! I know we can do it!

Hi - I'm in - and I'd love to be at both your starting weights! I started at 155 last week, down 4 in one week - the food journal has been amazing for me! Exactly what I needed... My workout routine consists of circuit training for 30 min 4 days a week, 30 min of cardio 5-6 days a week. I'm going to try to hit two strength training classes a week starting this week... I'll let you know if I can do it! My goal is 140lbs - once I get there, I'll re-evaluate :-)

I'm 5'6" and I started at 135. Right now I'm 122-123 and planing on sticking to that. Really, I'm more concerned with my BF% than my weight.

Hi! I'm 5'7"....pre kids I was always 120-125lbs...but I will be happy at 130lbs. I'm 160lb now....my biggest ever but hoping my summer I will have my confidence back 100% and my body back!!!! Welcome!

Hi there! I know what you mean, I was always 120ish before kids and even for a few years after having them. I started gaining weight when I turned 36 which was 5 years ago. My goal of 128 might be a little low but I like a little wiggle room because I always seem to bounce up and down 3 pounds depending on the time of month and all of that.

I am fortunate that for my birthday, my husband got me an elliptical trainer (from Walmart) so I have it set up upstairs and do that 3 days a week for 30 minutes. I also have some weights and resistance bands and other things that I do on alternating days, but honestly I only started that 3 weeks ago and haven't seen any weight loss at all. That is why I joined MFP, so I could track my calories. One other thing is that I quit smoking 3 weeks ago, so I am battling the weight gain that usually accompanies that. So far, I am just glad I haven't GAINED anything, but now I want to get serious and lose so I can honestly say I am all around healthier. Nice to meet all of you! Lets have a super healthy day and I will be thinking about you guys along with myself!

I always thought I was 5' 7" but a recent Dr's visit says 5' 6.5" - I am not quite 40, so the shrinking shouldn't have kicked in yet! Just started Jan 2 of this year and am off to a decent start in my quest to lost about 50 pounds. Feel free to add me!

5'7". Started out at 156 and went down to 120 a few years back. I go back and forth between 115 and 118 now. I've lost quite a bit of muscle since then and am looking to put it back on and tighten things up.

Hi! I am 5 6&1/2, and am currently 157. I have never been able to get below 140, but in a perfect world, I would be 130. I go more based on sizes, and would like to get from an 8-10 to a 4.

You can do it!!!

hey! I started on January 2nd at 246.9lbs went up . After a couple weeks, I hit a slump, and now I am back in the game hardcore! I started counting calories really hardcore on friday the 18th and lost 4lbs between then and Sunday. My 1st goal weight is to get to the 230's, then to the 220's, 210's and then finally i want to ultimately weigh 199.9 or less Good Luck with Your weightloss! btw 5'7"

I'm 5'6

SW: 238
CW: 161.4
GW: 130

I'm 5'7", started at 230, aiming for 130-145, depending on how I look and feel at that stage. My current, 165, is what I weighed in high school, I had to maintain over 150 to stay on the rugby team so aiming for something below that is a bit foreign to me.

I am 5’6.5” . 41 yrs old. Mom to 3

My goal weight is 130-135. I am 134.2# so I am at my goal weight. When I weighed 125 I looked to skinny and got sick easily., I gained weight partly to do some health issues, up to 150. I am back down to 135-ish and it seems a good weight on me. I am fine loosing a few morel unds, but it doesn't matter much at this point.

I am working put more, maybe the 125 will look better with some muscle definition... I don't plan on striving hard for that weight though. We'll see.

Your Boxer is ADORABLE!!!

I'm 5'7" and my current weight is 132. my goal weight was 135, from 147 which i hit in the almost last year (april) here on mfp. i think i'm pretty much at my goal weight, but i definitely need to get rid of my jiggly stomach still and my legs could use some work. i'm surprised to see a lot of people answering in the low 120's that seems really low to me! to each their own, we all carry it differently!

**edit this to say my cals are set for 1450 a day though i rarely hit that. my highest weight was 210.

I am 5ft. 6in. You can see from my ticker where I started and what my goal is, but I intend to reevaluate myself at 150 and if I feel I need to I will continue on to 140 and reevaluate again. I wont go below 130, though.

5'6" My initial goal is 165 lbs.

Ultimately I'd love it if I could get down to 140.
