Also, are you big-boned, medium-boned, or small-boned? And what is your body type?

    20-22% body fat. Based on my current LBM that's about 140 lbs. if I build more muscle maybe 145? Right now I'm at about 26% and 153.


    I'm small- medium framed 5'7". I suppose I'm pear shaped. I used to be a really good hourglass. Then I lost all my boobs. Technically I'm still big little big for bust-waist-hips. But to me I feel pearish

    AHHH I was thinking of asking the same question today! I am 5'6 - 5'7 and mine was 140... but now I'm thinking 150 might be more realistic for me. I have pretty wide hips.

    I'm like 5'7.5" and my goal is about 143 or 145. In my dream world it's 140, but my body really doesn't like to maintain that low. I say I'm of average build with wide hips and shoulders.

    5'6
    CW 200
    GW 150 but I'd be happy with 160

    I would say big boned. Currently for body shape... ha. Straight. But I think if I lost around my tummy I would be more hourglass...

    I'm 5'8". I don't really have an ultimate goal weight because in plan on bulking and cutting forever. I'm currently 117lbs, trying to get down to 112lbs. I have a small frame and inverted triangle shape.

    I'm 5'7" and currently 162. Goal is 150-155, which should put me toward the low end of healthy body fat percentage for my age. My frame is medium to large, depending on which definition you use.

    EDIT: Body shape hourglass.

    I'm 5'6.5''. My current weight is roughly 119. I don't plan to lose any more, and would be happy gaining some muscle and weighing 125 or so. I'd say my frame is medium-large. My shape is hourglass. Wide shoulders, wide hips, small waist.

    Small boned. CW 111, GW about 115-118, although I'm betting I'll gain another ten pounds within the next few years and I'm fine with that. It also depends upon how much muscle I can pack on. Yay bulking!

    EDIT: I'm just under 5'9''

    I'm 5'6'', small-framed and bottom heavy (not so much pear shaped, but thicker legs). I'd like to be 120lbs.

    I'm 5'7", no clue how big my bones are but my best guess is I have an hourglass under all this extra stuff lol. My current weight is around 218-220 depending on when I weigh myself. My goal weight WAS 120, but then I thought that was too little, then I upped it to 130, now I'm wondering if that's still too little. Now I'm thinking 135-140. But we'll see when I get there.

    I'm 5'7", CW is 163.8, and my ultimate goal weight is be around 135-140 pounds. I measured my wrists and apparently I have a medium-large build :grumble: And I'd say my body shape is hourglass, except I have a lot of tummy fat too. But my waist is quite a bit smaller than my boobs and hips.

    Started out around 300 so I really have no idea of my frame size. Or my shape. I have to shed a bit more I think before I can tell.

    My original goal was 160, but I am thinking right now I will be happy with a fit 140 - 150. I will be heavy lifting by then and will be basing it off BF and how I feel/ look.

    I'm 5'7'' My current weight is 165

    My goal weight is 150 which would put me at around 20% body fat.

    By wrist and elbow breadth measurements, I'm large framed and I have an hourglass shape, currently 39/27/40

    small boned
    pear shape
    age:31

    first goal weight: 145in
    I've been as low as 128 but was very hard to maintain... not realistic. I had to workout like crazy and eat minimal amounts. Not healthy.

    I am focusing on my measurements this time around. I have seen some incredible stories where people only lost a pound towards the end of their weight loss, but it looked like 5-10 because of them losing fat and gaining muscle.
