5'10 female. Is 130 too low?

Im 5'10" and I would look skeletal at 130... literally - people would think I was dying. My doctor told me to shoot for 190... I do have a large frame and am 36 years old with a 14 year old daughter. I think that 130 is definitely too low though no matter what your frame is.

I'm 5'10" and have a larger frame, my doctor told me my goal weight would be like 170 to 175.

I'm 5 10" and that is way too low for me.. i'd look sick. But let's see a picture of you..your shape and bone structure could be different.

I concur that it might be a bit on the low side, unless you are very small framed. For example, my mother is 6'0" and weights about 137lbs, but also has extremely slender shoulders/wrists/etc. She is certainly thin, but no one would think she looks sickly or anything.
I, on the other hand, and also 6'0" and currently weigh about 170lbs, and people refer to me as thin all the time. I have a much more solid build than my mom, and have been training with weights for about 3 years. I'd prefer to get back to 160lbs, and possibly even as low as 155lbs, but I doubt I could ever drop much lower than that.
So, pay attention to your body, and go until YOU feel comfortable!
Hope that helps some.

I'm 5'9 and my end goal is 145/150; however, my goal is currently 170. I want to see how I look/feel at 170 and readjust from there with a more informed plan of action. It's easy to get a goal weight in your head, but when you're tall, and you've lost the weight, you'll probably find what actually looks good is 5 - 15 lbs. more than what you originally thought you wanted to be.

It's not necessarily too low. I'm 124 and 5'9", which makes it close to the same BMI.

I have a small frame and eat 2000 calories a day. At the lowest point during my weight loss I was eating 1400. I didn't have to starve myself to get to this weight, but I do make healthy choices over bad ones.

I'd suggest getting a body scan, like the BodPod done. I am 5'10 and 199lb currently, but my lean body mass (everything BUT the fat) ALONE is 145 lbs. So for me/my body, I'd literally be loosing muscle to get to that low of a weight. A scan like that will give you a good idea of how much body fat vs. lean mass you have and a better goal to shoot for...

Fascinating how what other people think is "no, that's too skinny" only because it's not feasible for them. If it looks good on you, fcking do it.

I'm 5'8" and I think that 130 or 125 would be fine for me. I say that because my frame is small. My current goal is 135 which is already lower than a lot of women my height. It just depends on what your body fat percentage is at that weight. Mine at 140-145 is 25%. That's on the high end of healthy. So yeah, I see where you're coming from.

I am 5'11 and just finished a bulk, and now am cutting.

in my profile pic i am 185

Ideal weight for a woman at 5'10" is 148-175lbs (that's my height). Anything lower is considered too little fat.

That is misinformation. "Too little fat" is determined by measuring body fat percentage, not by weight. And if your BMI is above 18.5 you are considered in the "healthy range," which means that the lowest healthy weight for 5'10 by the BMI charts is 129 lbs. But like I said, the body fat percentage matters more. 130 could be a healthy weight for someone of that height but it depends on body type, muscle mass, etc. As long as you feel healthy and energetic, and your body fat percentage doesn't drop below 14% you're probably ok.

I'm also 5'10. Originally my goal weight was also 130 but since we typically are exercising, I think we should be a little higher because of muscle mass, athleticism, etc. I'm now aiming for 140 or 145. But every person is different so judge where you are now and base it off of that, I guess.

I'm 5'1" and 129. My original goal was 130 and I'm thrilled I reached it but I think I'll be happier at 125. I can't even imagine being your height at 130. Then again, I'm a medium frame and I was happy with my weight between 120-125.

Im 5ft 9 - Currently weigh 139lbs - And I think personally if I lost 9lbs and got down to 130, Everyone would think I look ill. 4/5lbs yes.... But not 9lbs!!

You just want to look healthy, feel happy, and be toned. Not damage your body by a very strict low diet, where you feel tired, ill and hungry all the time

Thats not healthy is it??? Good luck with your weight lost, but please dont get too low

Please see link below... There are definately 3 types of body frame sizes! I am 5'6 and when I weighed 120 I looked anorexic because of my medium bone size.
