I'm 5 feet 0 which, according to the BMI charts, means I should weigh between 102-128. I currently weigh 127 and I'm aiming to getting back to my pre-Christmas weight of 121 but that doesn't even put me in the middle of the range. I'm thinking of going for 110-115. What's your goal weight?

  • I am five feet tall and they say i am suppose to be 110 lbs. Right now I am 238. I just cant imagine being that small. i dont think I have ever been that small. I think I would be happy at 140-150.

    I am 5'3 1/2" and currently weigh 133. My goal is 120-125. That's the closest I feel I should get to my pre-pregnancy weight (which was 115). I am also looking for some friends to motivate me and to check in on with the app. Add me!!
  • I'm 5' 1'' and I want to be 110-112. Currently 121. :) Good luck on your journey! I got down to 116 last summer, hit a month long plateau and gave up now I'm kicking myself for it because I would most likely be at my goal if I would have stuck with it!
  • I'm 4'10 and currently 128. I started out at 144 but I never knew I had become slightly obese because my bathroom scale was off by 4-5 pounds haha. My goal is 105 but I'd love to get down to 100.
  • I am 5 feet and I am 190 now .My goal wgt is 130 for my wedding .
  • Don't focus on the recommended weight. I feel the same way, I'm 5'0" and 179 lbs. I have NEVER, as an adult, weighed less than 140. I looked good and felt good at 140, so that's much closer to my goal.

    5'2.75. Every centimeters counts when were this vertically challenged. Just like every pound counts. I want to lose 20 or more. I recently joined MFP. Super motivational and easy to use. I feel encouraged that there are so many of us with the same strenghths and weakness'

    I'm 5'2" and my goal weight is about 135-140. I can't picture myself being as low as it recommends. I'd like to have a few curves :)

    I'm 4'11" and currently 125lbs. My goal weight is 115, but I can't imagine the last time I was that weight. I am very top heavy, and hoping to lose a lot up there. Good luck to everyone!

    I'm so jealous of your current weight! I don't think I've been that light since elementary school. I really started gaining the pounds when I was 11 :/

    We are the same height btw xD

    110. Not sure if I can get there though. My lowest weight ever (before joining mfp and after puberty) was 160. 110 is but a far away dream.

    I'm 5ft 2 and aiming for 120lb as my goal weight. After that, I'll aim to be 107lb (based on Kourtney Kardashian's weight, haha. I love the way her body looks).

    I'm 5 foot 1 and a bit, having just been remeasured at the Doctors to find I'm a good 10cm shorter than I thought I was. :(

    I'm currently around the 130lb mark, and my official goal weight is 110. Although to be honest with you I'm going to go off bodyfat percentages and see how I feel, I have wiggle room to go as low as 100-105ish, but I suspect I shall hover around 110 with a spot of weight training to achieve a lower bodyfat %. I haven't a clue what I look like at that weight (or lower) as this is the lowest weight I've been since well before being a teen, so we'll see how it goes.

    I am 5'1", and my goal weight is 120, I will see what I can get to.

    My lowest weight was 98 lbs(in HS)-but I didn't have boobs then, now that I have them, they seem to be sticking around, even after a 25 lb weight loss.

    OP, remember that you began your weight loss severely overweight. During your journey you built up quite a bit of muscle while you were losing all that fat, so your optimal weight is going to be higher than average because you carry more muscle (which weighs more than fat, but takes up less space). So generally, going by what you want your measurements to be (24 inch waist or 18 percent body fat) is a bit more useful for you.

    That being said,
    I'm 5'2.
    My goal is between 120 and 125, but my GOAL is a body fat percentage of 14-16. I may find that my body fits better at 130ish at the lower bfp, so I am flexible.

    I'm just about 5' (less than .5" under so I round up).

    My current weight is 116. I'm not sure exactly what I want my goal weight to be. I used to want to be 100-105, but with my build and bone structure I'm not sure that's a good weight for me. I'm thinking more like 107-ish might be better. I remember being around 102lbs and thought I looked a little too skinny and muscular.

    I want to be around 19-20% body fat.
  • I am 5 ft and I don't think I was even at the recommended BMI in middle school. I have somewhat of an athletic build and for me, I'm almost 100 percent content at about 135 pounds...puts me around size 6/8...however, I would be fine with 140. I feel good and healthy there too.
