    I'm 5'6" ! If the scale ever read below 150 again I'd be thrilled! 137 is my dream weight :) I was 137 2 years ago when I got married :)

    120, because I want small legs! I tmight end up being 130, because I have a broad frame and a large bust.

    I am built from the top down so I have chicken legs and a great top. What I would give for bigger legs......and a smaller belly. More work.....

    I'll probably sound crazy since everyone is giving such low weights for their goal, but I want to be 165-170 (initially), 155-160 at the lowest. :)

    Not crazy. I am 5'5", currently just over 200lbs, and don't care to weigh less than 170. I just want it to be a FIT 170, instead of an unhealthy lower number.

    :drinker: :drinker: In the same boat. I don't care at all to be "skinny," just happy with what I see in the mirror and healthy!

    145. Although, once I'm 160, I will stop looking at the number so much and focus on the health and muscle.
    This is exactly how I feel!

    I am 5'5" and weigh 170 currently.

    Im 5"5 and by the guides a small frame, I have tiny bony wrists lol
    Im 138lbs now and my goal is to get to 126lbs and then see how I feel. Id like a 5lb breathing space too, so maybe 120lbs and then if I start to go past 125/126lbs I will start to cut back a little. Im almost there so very pleased.

    Initial goal is 125 lb, but I'm planning on gaining muscle after fat loss. So ultimately I'd like to end up around 130-133.

    Age: 39; Currently 145
    Goal: 132 - 135; Getting lean
    Restarted using kettlebells after a multi-level cervical spinal fusion earlier this year. I will never be able to lift heavy but am hoping I will see some results with the weights I am using. Also hoping to increase my running distance again once my fusion becomes solid - which I was told I could begin doing that in the spring :)

    I'm currently 5'4 and 116 lbs. I have been about 105 lbs and although I do think that might not be nice thin, I felt really good about myself at around 110 so that is my goal weight.

    I also have a small frame with long torso and short legs so it makes me look more proportionate.

    I play volleyball, so I carry a lot of muscle in my legs and back. My ultimate goal weight is 140, but I'll be happy between 145-150. I'm currently down to 156. I tend to go by how my clothes fit rather than what the scale says though.

    I'm 5'5.5" and technically my goal is 145 which would put me around 25% body fat. I started at 244.8 and am currently at 174.8, though I had gotten down to 154.6 back in April and put on weight again due to injury and issues with my thyroid and eating less healthy. I didn't see or appreciate how good I looked at that weight and I vow to myself to appreciate it more once I get back there!

    The numbers on the scale don't mean anything if you don't feel good about yourself, so my main goal is just to enjoy the process, be proud of how strong I have become and how dedicated I am to my fitness and healthy eating, and to treat each mini milestone as a little goal achieved. It's not about the ultimate goal weight, it's about feeling awesome every day and getting and better as I go.

    Right now I have it set to 140, but we'll see - that's actually probably lower than where I'll stop. Before I got married/pregnant I was at 160, and I was pretty happy but would have been happy losing a few more. But, honestly, my scale goal is totally arbitrary. It's all going to be based on how I look and feel. I have a more hard-and-fast body fat goal of 25% (which is still probably high for some girls but I carry a LOT of weight in my hips/butt and in my breasts, so I'm happy with a slightly higher percentage - I'm not shooting for super lean, just healthy and strong and still curvy), so wherever I land when I get there...rock on. I figure it will most likely be somewhere around 150, give or take 5 or 10, so my goal will be somewhere between 140 and 160 and I'll know it when I get there.

    My ultimate goal weight is 140 but, I have a long way to go. So, I have made short term goals to get me through the process and make it feel less overwhelming. I wish you the best in achieving your goals!

    I am 5'5" and currently I'm 145 and my goal is 135. Ultimately I want to get my body fat % to about 22 (down from my current of 27). If those two numbers come close then I will be very happy.

    I am 5,6' and my goal I to get down to 28% body fat which is in the middle of the healthy range. Technically this would bring my goal between148 and 160.

    I think my goal weight is 140 but truthfully I would be ecstatic to reach 150 even. Haven t seen that number on the scale since I was 20.

    I am 5'5" and my current goal is 150. Once I reach that I may reset but I weigh heavy. At 200 I was in a size 12. I don't have any desire to get real skinny. I just want to be comfortable with myself.
