    Hi I'm 5'7". I'm a slight pair. My hips are bigger the the rest but not a huge ratio. I consider myself medium to large boned as I have man hands.

    SW: 208lbs (jan 2/13 but my highest was between 230 and 240lbs)
    CW: 182lbs
    GW: 155lbs (for now -we'll see when I get there)

    I know in my early 20s I weighed like 140ish and looked fantastic (so I thought), but as we age I know bone density, muscles, and so on change.

    Thanks for the post. I was curious too.

    I'm 5'6.5" and small framed according to the NIH - even though I've always considered myself more medium. GW is 134 for now, but I might lower it once I hit it. CW is 139.

    Medium-boned, my goal is currently 140, maybe 135 if I can get down lower after that.

    I am 5'7 and medium framed. My best weight was 160 in the military with 29%bf. But my bf was boobs, hips, thighs and my butt. 160 is my goal. I feel like I'd be too skinny lower than that. I am definitely pair shaped.

    5'7" and medium frame. Current weight is 144.8. My goal weight is between 135 and 140. I have it set at 138 right now. Just trying to trim off the last of the belly pudge.

    I'm small boned and have an hourglass shape. For me, I think I look best around 135-140, which is where I've been maintaining since I lost weight. I'm 46 and when I get any smaller, I lose from my face and look older. Bleh.

    5'7", big boned, hourglass/pear
    SW: 285
    CW: 255
    GW1: 185
    GW2: 150

    I will start at 185 and see how I look and feel. At my smallest, I was 145-155, but I was probably skinny-fat.

    I'm 5'7, small frame, hourglass. My UGW is 120, so I have 10 left to go. Honestly, I think I'm looking OK at 130, so I'm willing to eat my way back to this point if I feel I'm too lean at the 120. I'm sure that will be tough. lol

    5'6" definitely big boned, I have had a doctor tell me my bones are very dense (and that is supposedly supposed to be a good thing according to him)
    I have a very curvy hourglass shape and wear a 32F
    I have wide shoulders and wide hips, small waist
    I would really like to get to 140 but that number is not important to me.
    I actually plan to cease trying to lose weight when I reach an ideal body fat percentage

    Hi!

    I'm not exactly 5'7" but I'm close. , I'm medium to big boned. I don't know what my body shape is yet as I can't exactly see it yet. I allowed myself to gain far too much weight in my teen years. I was lazy and simply didn't care. I'm down to 297 now and my weight loss goal is 130! I'd say 140 would be a good weight for you, since you are slightly taller than I am.
