    I'm 5'1'' and 116 lbs. and just turned 27. I started at 175 about 7 mos ago. My first goal weight was 120, but I just wasn't totally satisfied. So I've changed my goal to 110, simply because my lower belly still has a tiny roll :(. I thought I would have a flat belly by now! my arms and legs are the thinnest they have ever been so now my stupid tummy needs to go! I find it strange that this last week I've been eating whatever I please (it's very hard to turn down bbq and ice cream cake) and still the weight was coming off, it actually seems that since I've been on my cardio kick that my metabolism has transformed, I'm also noticing I'm extremely hungry when I'm hungry LOL. When I was heavier I never really gave myself a chance to 'feel hungry'. In fact it seems the more weight I lose, the hungrier I get. Anyone else experiencing this? Also it is very hard for me to get a strength training routine down, kinda confusing what machines work what muscles, when to work certian muscles.......I seriously thought that at this weight I would feel amazing....but I must keep giving it my all, even though being very stressed out all the time (relationship issues:grumble: ) makes it hard to have energy for exercising.

    I am 5' 2" (or just a hair under that) ... and 58 years old. I started my journey to get healthy 6 years ago at 203 pounds. I've had a series of goals along the way. At first I thought I that 175 was a low as I could reasonably reach and maintain. Now I weigh 152.

    My current goal is 135 to get into the healthy BMI range. But I fantasize about getting to 118 -- what I weighed when I graduated from high school. I doubt I will get that low.

    I am 5'2", my goal weight is 118lbs. I have not had too much trouble keeping my weight between 125-130, but I would really like to make this the year that I say goodbye to the 120's!

    i am 5'2 and 23 years old and i'm currently 124 pounds. i'd like to be around 115-117, i'm getting there! i'm more concerned about how i look and feel rather than the numbers of course but that's just a goal i set for myself at the moment.

    oh and anyone can add me if we have some similar goals :)

    I'm 5'1, and aiming for 110-115. My smallest pants size was a 3-5 (currently 7-9), so I think I just have wide hips for my frame.

    My goal weight is 110.The lowest weight I ever hit was 115.I wore a size 2/3 .I was really happy in a size 5 and I was about 125 around there so that might be my adjusted goal later on.

    I'm 5 foot and a half inch, and I started off at 209, hoping to get down to 160. That is what I was at my lightest as an adult, and I think that's realistic. I know it's not in my DNA or body type to weigh 110 pounds, even though that's "healthy." I am very top heavy and have wide hips so I would look ridiculous at that weight! :-)

    I'm with you. I'm 50 years old and I've NEVER weighed what my IBW says I should be weighing! I'm at 237 now and my initial goal is 230. I started at 248 so that's pretty realistic for me. Once I get to 230, I'm going for 200 lbs. and when I finally get there, I'm aiming for about 175 which was my weight in H.S. I've always had thick thighs, ample hips and bosom, and was always very physically active in the 175-200 range so that's what I'm aiming for.

    I am 5 feet tall, and the BMI charts say I should weigh between 104-130 pounds, however depending on which body fat % calculator I use, at 21% body fat I should weigh between 130-165 pounds (big range, I know.) When I get down to the 160s or so, I want to have Bod Pod testing done so that I can set a goal weight.

    In the past I've looked at what other people my height say they weigh/want to weigh and let that make me a little crazy. But I have a very, very difficult time getting down below 130 pounds, and trying to push that low seems to make me give up and gain it all back. Now that I have a real idea of how much muscle mass I carry I guess it makes sense.

    5'2"- 51 - goal is to return to 140 (3 yrs ago) when I felt the best- anything lower and I had no energy. When originally started wt loss journey 6 years ago my target was 120- never got there as just didn't feel right and now with menopause- well lets just see if I can get back to what felt good.

    There is such a variety of goals listed under this post and I think this may be due to where you are in life. I am 5'2" and currently weight about 142. I hit menopause about a year ago and my weight increased to nearly 150. In my 20's my weight was generally in the low 120's and increased slowly over the past few decades. I have never been lean & slender but curvy built and I think body type also makes a difference. My goal is a healthy BMI of 134 pounds.

    That is fantastic, and you look amazing. I hope you take some time to appreciate how good you look now. I know that when I have been at my thinnest I have never appreciated it because I've always compared myself to other people and found my body wanting. I want to go back in time and shake myself until I see me the way other people did.
