in Health and Weight Loss
I am 5'2, and I may look very white but I have the figure of a Hispanic woman thanks to my mom haha. I've also had two kids. What weight do you guys think is a good weight to be at and still keep my curves with out being too skinny. Women with wide hips will understand this. Also measurements I would be eternally grateful. Just trying to set up my goals a little more now that I have lost this much.

    Morning! I am 5'3". When I was 135, I was slender, but still curvy. I still looked okay at 140-145 actually.

    Keep up the weight loss! You're doing great!

    Its hard to say. Im around 130 now I think, slim, but with curves and quite a bit of muscle. It depends on your body composition to be honest. Ive been lighter, but softer, than I am now.

    i'm 5'1 and also have always been curvy. I've always felt good around 125, 130 even though all the charts say I should be 112-118.

    120-125

    Edited to add, I'm 5'2" and when I weighed in this range I still had curves.

    I'm 5'2 and before I was pregnant I weighed 130 (small but still curvy) at the time I thought I still needed to lose. Looking pictures of me back then I realized I was tiny & would love to be back at that weight.

    I'm 5'2" and I was around 130 pre-kids. I have a pretty non-curvy figure though so I feel like I look better with a bit more weight on. I was really thin for a bit (105-110) in my early 20s and got mistaken for a middle schooler or high schooler often because I had absolutely no chest or hips.

    I'm down to around 134 now and I want to start firming/toning up so I use my goal weight loosely and am focusing on fitting back into my pre-kid sizes (starting to wear some jeans and tops again!) and not worrying too much about the scale. Having 3 kids has also given me a bit more curves (slightly wider hips, and bigger chest for now - still nursing though) so I'm just taking it a week at a time to see how I look as I continue to lose :)

    I'm 5'2" and currently weigh 133. I'm done 9 pounds from the beginning of the year. I have a small waist and very wide hips. My waist is currently 26 and my hips 39. My goal is to be 125. That's when I feel my best and still keep my curves.

    Hello! I'm also 5'2" and for me, 130 is a good goal, because I'm curvy as well (waist 31" hips are 41.5") my weight right now is 149, so at around 125-130, I remember being small and still having my hips and curves. I also have decent muscle mass, and looked toned at that size.

    I am absolutely curvy but still look fat with 130. I have a very small waist, flat stomach, big boobs and just GIGANTIC thighs and butt. So unless i get to 120 or under I still am this "wow now that IS a bum" thing which I know many man like but I just hate it.
    And I need to be able to put a size 38 pant on it and that just won't happen above 120.

    I'm also 5'2" and am pretty curvy. Before my kids, I was around 125. I am now about 128, but definitely not as toned as before kids (especially the belly). I would like to maintain between 120-125, but am more interested in being more fit and less flab than a number on the scale. I personally have had a lot of difficulty losing the weight from 135 and down. I'm not even sure anyone can tell I've lost much weight at all. My point is that probably anywhere from 120-135 looks fine on a 5'2" body. Good luck!

    I got down to 130 and was still curvy (on the bottom any way) I don't really have boobs ha. I don;t have measurements, but there are some pictures on my profile if you want to look. I would like to be 120. I still have fat in places I don't want it.
