5'3 women - whats ur goal weight and dress size that would make you look lean (not too skinny).
My goal weight is 117-120 lbs. Goal dress size is US 6? Too much or too less?

    I am 5'3 looking to be 130. I've never seen myself at a healthy weight so I'm not quite sure how it'll turn out, but I'd like some curve. My family naturally has larger breasts and bubble-butts, so that's probably where that extra 10-15lbs will hide. As for dress size? I have no idea how the lower numbers work, but I have looked into it to find 4 or 6. God, looking at that, I just imagine '4x' haha.

    Aiming for 130 and dress size about 6. I had a big booty so I doubt it'll get much smaller than that. 120 might make you drop to a size 4. I'm not sure - depends on your body shape. Good luck. :)

    I'm currently 122.5-123 (we all know that half a pound makes a difference) and a size 2 dress size 3 pants.
    Most people don't think I should lose more but I feel as though I should? I don't feel as though I'm "too thin"
    Its all in your body frame etc

    I want to get down somewhere into the 120s and get into a size 6. Originally I was aiming for an 8, but I fit into that when I was in the 130s so I think a 6 is doable. I swear clothes have gotten bigger since I was a teen, though, as 6 was the smallest I ever wore and I used to be as low as 110.

    I'm 5'3" and I currently weigh 130 pounds. It really depends on the dress. For instance, I can wear a size 4 or 6 in dresses for work or what not. But, my Matron of Honor dress is a size 8. I typically wear a size 6 in shorts.

    My ultimate goal weight is 120-125. Anything less makes me look gaunt in the face. Plus, I like having boobs and a rear. Just wish my stomach would shrink.

    I'm 5'3" and my goal is to get back to 115 - that for me is a size 2 dress or size 0 or 2 pants. I'm 125ish now and in a size 4.

    I was 120 once, and felt absolutely PERFECT. Uk size 8-12, our damn shops are so vaired. But I was pretty much a safe 10. A slightly more muscled 120, would be SUCH a dream.

    5'2'' GW is 125 (though I believe I can get below that eventually)



    My dress size varies. But my jeans are 9's and my work pants are 8's

    I'm 5'4", and my original goal weight was 110; however, I've paused at 120 for a bit to give myself a break from low calories, to build a bit of muscle, and to let my boyfriend adjust to the 25 pounds I've lost (right now he doesn't like my new body because of the smaller boobs.) I'm now about a 2 US, a 0 in most misses sizes and a 3 in juniors. I still feel that I have fat to lose from my thighs, upper arms, and stomach that can't just be toned, but I might feel differently in a month or so.

    My initial goal weight was 160 pounds (which I am now), and I am wearing a size 6/8 right now. I would like to lose 10 more pounds and replace some fat with muscle which should easily put me in a size 4. That would be great, but I am pleased where I am at right now as well :)

    Yes, it depends on your body shape and composition for sure. And on the style of dress. I'm currently in my low 140s and can pull off a size 4 Loft dress if it nips at the waist and has a full skirt, but would have to buy a 6 or 8 pencil skirt.

    To answer your question, I'm 5'3" and my goal weight is 130. Back when I weighed that, I had some lean muscle mass and fit a size 2 for the most part.

    I'm 5'2 and at 119 pounds. Right now, I just want to concentrate on fitting comfortably into a size 5 or 6.

    Started Jan. 11, 2013. I'm 5'3", currently 126 (down from147.5) and a size 6.........goal was 120, thinking of changing to 115, so that should be a 4 for me. Would LOVE to get to 110 but not sure that is doable.

    My goal is 130-135...but I would be happy with 150 lbs at this point!

    I'm 5'3" as well, goal weight is 125 - 130, right now my dress size is a 10, at least the last time I checked which was a while ago.. (I don't wear dresses that often, lol)

    I can't really say what my goal weight is because I'm much more muscular than I was when I thought I looked 'ok' at 120lbs. Maybe 130-135? I'm not sure. Dress size is 8 now and I'm fine with that. My size 8 jeans are too tight since I've gained some, so I guess for those I'd have to say I'd like to be a size 6.

    Thanks everyone! Great answers, Really helps.

    As for body frame, I would say I'm medium framed, however going by the size wrist measurement guidelines, my wrist is slightly smaller than 6 inches, which means I should be small framed. When my family and friends look at me, they unanimously think Im large framed! But I wonder if that's because of the excess pounds that I want to shed.

    Overall, knowing my body, I would think it is safe to assume I am medium framed.

    I'm 5' 3.5". My current weight is about 151, 27% body fat, size 6 in jeans and 8 in dresses. my goal is 22% body fat, which will put me between 140-145 pounds. The thinnest I have ever been was 148 pounds, and I was about the same size I am now. Also, I'm really muscular so I know I could never be under 140 and be healthy. I'd like to be a size 6 in dresses, and look great in a bikini lol.

    I just reached my goal weight of 125, I'm 5'3". I don't wear dresses, but the last one I tried was a 4, a month or so ago. I wear size 2 now in most pants, but some are a bit loose. I would guess that I also wear a size 2 dress, as I wear a small or XS in tops. I guess I'm smaller than others at my height and weight (judging by the posts in this thread). Maybe I am more muscular.
