    According to a BMI calculator, my healthy weight range is 6st11lb (43kg) (95lb) - 9st1lb(57.6kg) (127lb)

    I am currently 7st13lb (50.3kg) (111lb)

    Would like to get as close to the low end as possible then potentially increase muscle. Really just want to cut the fat.

    I was about 91lb when I was 18 and I think that would be too low.

    eta: I am 4'11 (152cm)
  • My end goal is 37kgs which is 81lb. It's a bit light, but considering my ethnicity and how light I used to be when I was more active it's not too bad of a goal.

    I am about your height and used to be your weight (plus a little) I have been working hard the last 10 1/2 months and am down to 166. I used to think that the 140-150 would be good, but I now I will go until I think it's right and then maintain! It's hard to think that I am that close to 150 (and haven't been that in 20 years!) Lose until you feel you are right! I have never had a goal weight, just was looking to get healthy!

    I'm 5'3'' and BMI puts me in the 130-140 range. I'm big boned to begin with though so I plan on getting to 160- 150 range, then seeing how things look from there.

    5'2 and 140 is my goal! Not "healthy" by BMI, but I felt fantastic at that weight (I gained some weight I lost back). When I reach 140 solidly, I may strive for 135, as that would make me bare minimum healthy according to the BMI scale, but honestly, I feel and look healthy at 140.

    5'2" goal weight 113. I think my frame is considered a medium frame. I have a decent amount of muscle tone. At 110, I would lean but not skinny. (Haven't been at that weight in like 20 years!)
  • I'm 5' 4'' and right now my goal is 140, but I'm within 5 pounds of that so I might try dropping down to 135 or so. My healthy BMI range is 130 to 145 so by BMI standards I'm at a healthy weight. My mom/doctor says i shouldn't go below 130-135 because of my bone structure.

    Im 5'2 and my goal weight is 120, I might reassess at 140. Losing weight is so hard! Lol. Sigh.
  • I'm 5'3 1/4" and my goal weight is 145. I had my baby girl 7 weeks ago and I actually gained back some of the weight I loss when I had her, so I started back on my working out and eating healthy after the doc released me from my 6 week check up. I have reduced my calories and dropped back on the over eating. I lost four pounds in the first week and I am ready for the rest to fall off.
