women 5ft 6/7in!!!

I would love to be 135 but even in high school I weighed around 135-140. I tend to build and carry a lot of muscle when I get in shape. Not always amazing, I like to be tone, but don't want muscle bulk. But I will take that over the flab. I too am trying to get in better shape after having kids and just being lazy. I am turning 37 this week and I am around 152, 5'6. I would think the lowest weight I could get is 140 and not sure I could maintain that? I would just love to be around 145 and stick there or less. We shall see.

I did read through most of the comments though and everyone does seem to be in the 130s or lower for this height. So maybe I need to shoot for a bit lower?

I envy you all! I am 5'4 and WISH I was 5'7 and taller! Thank God for 5 inch heels

apparently I'm a fat 5'7.5 er lol..
I'm currently 163.1 lbs with 23% bf
Goal: 145-148# with 16-18% bf
Current size: 6
Goal size: 4

Guess it just depends on the overall physique goals.

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!!!

That's my height, and I will be more than happy back in an 8.
As an adult, even when I was skinny, I was never a 4.
My mother was a size 4 when she died of cancer, and it was NOT a good look at 5'6" - it was a starved refugee look.

I'm pretty sure an athletic size 4 and a dying of cancer size 4 aren't equivalents...

I'm 5'6.5". My starting weight was 150 and I'm currently at 143.

I'm aiming at 130 although I'm not sure I'll get down that low. To be honest I'll be happy just to improve my overall fitness and tone up.

Hi, I'm 5 ft 7 and I started off at 128 pounds but over the last 8 months I've gone up to 150 pounds. I only started doing this again at the beginning of this month, I'm currently at 145 pounds and plan to get back down to 128. I'm not that fussed about my weight in general as I'm a british size 8-10 but I really want to lose the weight off my bum and thighs which always seem to be the last and most difficult place on my body to lose weight from.

I started out at 160 and my goal for now is 140 I want to go lower but going 20 at a time. I've lost 5lbs so far, Just really tracking what I'm eating and doing walking running is working for me. Im 5"5

Hi, I'm 5'6" (170 cm) and my goal is 140 - 150 pounds (65 = 68 kg). Anything below that and I start to look ill. I've got quite a big frame, so my bones will start sticking out if I go below.
I started out at 180 pounds, after gaining weight due to medication. They would make me feel hungry as a side effect, so I would eat
I now am on 1400 calories a day. Which should let me loose 1 pound a week. So far, I have not weighed. I did measure my waist, hip and neck, and lost some centimeters there already! Don't want to weigh til 1st of Feb.

I'm a little under 5'7" and started at 128, with a goal of 120. The lowest weight, in my perfect world, would be 118. But considering I'm in my late twenties, and have matured/developed more than when I used to weigh 115-118 all the time, it might be hard to get there or maintain that. I'd be happy with a steady 120 and muscle tone.

Im 5ft 7in I weigh 140lbs. Pre kids I was always 115lbs and after my first 2 kids I was 120lbs. After I turned 30 and had baby number 3 I gained weight and have not been able to kick those post baby pounds. I have now started watching what I eat and exercising 30+ mins a day 5 to 6 days a week. So Im hoping to get back to that 115 to 120lbs mark. Good luck to you.
