    5'2 Here... starting weight 180, currently 178... I'm shooting for 140. The lowest I've been in my adult life was 153... and I plateaued FOREVER and got tired of waiting... got lazy.. gained it back over about 2-3yrs. At that time I was in a size 10 and felt I would be pretty happy with only 10-20# lighter. We'll see :) Good luck everyone!

    I'm 4'10 and 31 years old. I am just now restarting my weight loss journey at 135 pounds. My goal is 108-110 pounds.... That is my happy weight (from what I remember :) my body and I liked it at that weight....)

    I'm 5'2 and I've been every weight between 200lbs and 95lbs (totally unhealthy and was a vegan!) Im currently around 160lbs but would like to get back down to around 120. I truly feel like this is a healthy weight for anyone around this height. When I weighed less than 120 I actually stopped getting my period. However, if I've learned anything over the years is to STOP looking at numbers and trying to be a targeted weight. Just be the weight that you feel the best at and feel the most comfortable, confident, and healthy!

    Best of luck girls, you're all beautiful!!

    I am 5 foot 1, I started at 161 (my heaviest) I am now at 140. I am trying to get to about 133 by the new year... but my goal weight is 115-120. That will be the lowest I have been in my adult life.

    I'm 5'3" and 3/4 (my doctor loves seeing me argue that I have to be 5'4" by now). Weight right now: 221 Goal weight: 170-180. I highly doubt I will get to the standard weight for some one my height (120-135) just because how my family is shaped (big natural breast or huge thighs/hips).

    I'm 5' 3.75". Currently I'm around 123 lbs ... the heaviest I've been was last year, at 136lbs. I've gone down to 121 lbs but in the process messed up my metabolism since I only ate 1200 cals a day and my body got used to it, but I could never afford to go under it. So I decided to find my TDEE and take a 20% deficit and see how that goes. It's resulted a weight gain of 2-3 pounds so far...but I feel so much better than before. My goal weight is 105 lbs, which gives me a 5 pound leeway between 105 - 110 when I switch to maintenance. I've been pretty consistently around 127-130 since I was 13, so this is all new territory for me.

    I'm 5'5 and currently weigh 108lbs my heaviest weight this year is 124lbs, my goal is 98lbs or a toned, fat less body whichever comes first. Have strict parents who are anti-diet need help, I'm 18 :)

    I'm not trying to be rude but for 5'5 I think 98lbs is too light. I maybe wrong but I have a cousin that's 5'7" 138lbs and not "fat" in the least. If I was you I would worry on adding muscle weight and not looseing.

    I'm 5'4"

    HW: 235
    CW: 223
    GW: 140
    UGW: 116

    I'm not sure, but everyone I've talked to that is around my height says that normal is 116-140. I've never been under 140 and can't imagine myself lighter but at the same time I have cousins who are my height and are around 120 so I'll see. I just want to get down to a healthy weight and feel good again.

    I'm 5'2" and hoping for 130 - just want to get out of the obese/overweight zone! I might reevaluate when I'm at that size but for now 130 is fine. And I think I'd like some meat on my bones, just not the 70+ extra I have now.

    I'm 5`3 and currently I weight 150. (I think, no scale while on vacation) goal weight is 100 because I have an hourglass figure and I have a lot of weight in my thighs :P

    i'm 5'2" and i'm at my highest weight (130); my goal is 100.
    i was 115 at the beginning of fall semester (freshman in college) and really didn't know i had gained the "freshman 15" (literally) until my psychiatrist pointed out my weight gain.

    so now i've come back to mfp with a dead-set goal of losing 30 pounds by march 8, when i see her again.

    i'd love to connect with some of you and be each others' encouragement; feel free to send my friend requests(:
