    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 feel similarly. Was always a little pudgy. I am 4'10" and currently 223. Am aiming for 140. When I get there I'll see how that looks and feels on me. I haven't been 140lbs since 1984.

    I'm 5 feet, 135 now. I was 138 max. I would like to be 114 and then see what I need to improve on from there. A really cool goal weight in the end would be 100-114 though, but I shall figure it out later.

    I feel the same as you two. I am 5 feet tall and 263 (scary to say out loud) and have been fighting my weight since I was a teenager. I feel I would be happy at 140-160. Even when I was younger my lowest weight was 150 and I liked my cuvry body.
    I just think with my body type I could never be that small.

    I'm five foot 0...SW: 139, CW: 117-ish. I thought my goal was 115, but now that I'm near it I think I could go to 110. I'm pretty curvy still, my butt and boobs are still hanging around...add me for support if you like!

    I'm 5'0 tall. Current weight 112#. Goal weight: 105#. But for me I am more concerned about body fat %. In the past my heightest weight has been 130#.

    Good question here! My answer always fluctuates..

    Height: 5'2"

    I'm 194 but would be content at 150.
    But my dream weight is 130.

    I'm 4'11 and would love to end up no lighter than 129. Went down to 119lb once and didnt feel healthy. Loved being 129 and according to my doc thats about right for me. Before i had my second child almost 17 yrs ago i weighed 105 and felt ok but i was also 26 yrs old at the time. So for me a healthy weight is around 125-129.

    I'm 5' as well and my goal is 115. But it's been awhile since I've been that weight....I only have around 15lbs left and it feels like I could stand to lose a lot more, but I'm going to try to do some toning because I still think 115 is a good weight for me.

    I am 5'2" and I am currently at my goal weight of 112. My goal was originally 125 but re-evaluated when I got there and decided to take it just a bit further. I am 53 and have not weighed this little since I was in high school. MFP has made it easy to get down to this weight and maintain if. Even when I gained 3 lbs over Christmas (Because I wasn't logging my food very well!) I was able to take it off again pretty easily.

    I am 5'0 and currently weight 138. I started at 144 about 2 1/2 weeks ago. My first goal is to get to 127 ( the end of my reccomended ) but ultimately strive for between 120-122lbs. I am bottom heavy so at 110-115 i look kinda weird ! haha I know it is going to take a while but 5lbs on a small frame makes a big difference ! :)

    I am 4 foot 11 inches and my final goal weight is 123lbs as it would make my BMI below 25, my ultimate goal :)

    My starting weight was 180lbs, and I'm currently on 162lbs.. so I'd be very happy just to get below 150lbs really


    TBH I haven't been under 135lbs since I was a pre-teen, and even at age 18 I could fit into teenagers clothes, or a size 8 easily (size 4 in USA)... so I don't think being 123 would look right with my frame... but we'll see... when I get to 140ish I will re-evaluate :)

    I'm five foot 1.5" I weight 143 now and want to be 136...I guess that is still considered "big" for a short girl but being almost 42 I don't want to look to0 thin in the face....and I love being curvy...

    I'm 5'0" tall. My goal weight is between 105-115lbs. I want a large gap so I can really figure out where I like my body the most.

    I am 5' and currently 154. I have heard many mixed comments about my weight. My doctor told me that because of the amount of muscle mass I have I do not look like I weigh 154. However, she said she would like to see me get that number down slightly. I have NEVER been super tiny like 100-115, so for me I think I would maybe look sick if I tried. My goal ultimate goal is 125-130.

    I'm 5' 0". I'm currently at 112, and would like to get down to 110-105 lbs. BUT I am also doing strength training so If I stayed at 112 or went up to 115 I'd be fine with that- more concerned now that I've lost some weight about my Body Fat %. I'm aiming for 16%!

    I am 5'1" and currently 98 lbs. My goal is to gain muscle and consistency. And to stay out of the under weight bmi and maintain the normal bmi. Right now my bmi is 18.6, so I'm pretty much at the boarderline.

    I'm 5'1 and 168 pounds. I have been in my "target weight" and didn't like it. I'm aiming for 130 - which is the weight I felt my best at. That's about 5 pounds over the heavy end of my scale but I don't mind. I felt my best right around that weight.

    Edited to add: I am bottom heavy so when I got below 130, I looked like a bowling pin balanced on a bowling ball! Not a good look, LOL! 130 seemed to be more proportionate.
