I'm 5'2" and I'd love to be 130! I was 150 when I was 20, not sure what I was right after high school.0

I'm 5'1'' and my goal is 115 also my lowest adult weight in my 20's. I am a lot stronger now than I was when I weighed 115 lbs 20 years ago. I started at 155 and am now 125. I'm trying to let go of the number and let my body tell me where is wants to be. I also went to try on jeans and I was in between sizes so I want to make sure the weight I settle at is easy to shop for.0

I'm 19yrs old and I'm 5'1 and weigh 224 and I've lost nada!! I found out last year that I have a genetic heart disease. I found out when I decided to start walking/jogging early mornings. Then I all of a sudden had a panic attack (so i thought) and i couldn't really breath so i had to sit on the curb for a while and take a breather. When I finally went home I went to the hospital and that's when I found out about my heart disease. But 2 weeks later I did try to exercise again with my cousin and it happened again but this time way much worse. It was so bad a random lady had to take us to the hospital. and my doctor told me to try something else until i loose enough weight to be able to actually walk/jog. But I'm 19YRS OLD unemployed and have to use a EBT card with $347 and share it with 5 other siblings. So I'm ****ed either way. I'm about to graduate soon and want to loose all of my weight before i go to college I need a change. I just need help. I don't know.0

I'm in maintenance now. I aim to stay between 125 and 130. I'm 5'4".0

I am 5' 4" and my goal weight is between 130-135. When I was 19 I weighed 103-105 (can't even imagine that now). When I was pregnant with my first baby (at age 26) my heaviest at that time was 151 - that would have made me 128 prior to getting pregnant as I know I gained 23 pounds. When I started this weight loss at the beginning of May I was up to 181 (at age 46) - and am down to 159 today....0

Almost 5'4" and currently weigh 140 lbs. My goal weight is 135 lbs.0

5'4" here. 39 yrs and currently 167. My goal is 140, with a lot of muscle.
-My lowest adult weight was 125 (sedentary), but was actually getting told I needed to gain weight at that time. Was 21.
-My lowest adult weight (fit with a lot of muscle) was 145. Was 31.0 -
I'm 5'2.5... My goal weight is 125. The lowest I weighed was 100 at 23 and that was when I was trying to keep weight on. Wish I had that problem now.0
-
5'4" goal is 135 right now. I may go for 130 once I hit 135. I was 120/125 in college (age 18-22) and was tiny. I'll be very happy at 130-135 at age 38/39 :-)0

I am just under 5'2... I am about 121-123. I would love to be at 115-118 but I am finding this last few pounds is tough to lose! It came off pretty quickly once I started to eat right and small portions throughout the day. I began this journey in January of this year at about 150. With a gain in muscle I realize I am very hungry. I am trying so hard to decrease my sugar intake to help with the last bit of loss. But it is so hard because I am totally addicted to it! Overall, feel pretty good. Trying not to focus on the scale so much.0
-
5'4" and goal right now is 145#. I may adjust once I reach that point ! Good luck everyone !0
-
I'm 5'2", and I JUST reached my goal of 125 lbs, although I would like to be 120 lbs. >~<
My lowest weight as an adult was 150 lbs, and that's when I was a freshman in college. Then I gained 30 lbs after my freshman year, and I hated myself for letting my eating habits get so bad.0 -
5'2
goal weight is 1170 -
I'm 5'2", and while I have no solid goal weight (I go by body fat), by goal body fat would put me roughly around 115-120lbs. After that, I'll probably continue to drop my body fat and hopefully gain some muscle (so not much weight change).0

I'm 5 '3" and a half. Goal weight 143 (as that's a stone from my starting weight). It's taken me nearly a year, I have just over one pound to go. It's quite a difference because I'm now 3 inches slimmer around the middle than I was. The lightest I've been is 126, but that was in my late 20's. I've been in the overweight category for 3 years now and this is the year I'm going to sort that out for good. Nearly there!
It's great to see so many people posting healthy achievable goal weights on here. Makes me feel more positive about my own goals.
Well done and good luck everyone.0 -

I'm 5'-2" and weigh 133, pretty happy here. Lowest adult weight was 95 pounds after a two year drug bender.0

Just shy of 5'4". My main goal is 149 lbs - almost there! (I had a kind of subgoal to get under 200.) My maybe-goal is 129, which I think is what I weighed in college or early marriage. But I want to stay at 149 for awhile to see how I feel there.0

I'm 5'3 and my goal weight is 120, possibly 115. I've never been that small in my life so I really just want to get to 120 and see what size I am. The smallest I've ever been was 137lbs a couple years ago.0

I know you are hurting - you want to eat well but with an EBT card (I assume that's food stamps or some such) of only $347 to buy food for 6 people, it's hard to buy fresh fruits and vegetables and make them stretch. Cheap food is generally high in starches, fat, and sugar.
Here are a few suggestions - if you have access to regular medical care (not emergency room care), go to your doctor and ask what programs are available to help you lose weight.
Go to your local food bank on a regular basis and try to get as many fresh fruits and vegetables as possible.
Reduce your sugar intake drastically - drink water or unsweetened tea instead of sodas - even if you're drinking diet soda, the sweet flavor makes your sugar cravings worse. Try to avoid anything artificially sweetened.
Reduce the use of fats when cooking. If you don't have an atomizer for cooking oil, pour a very small amt of oil on a paper towel and oil the pan, rather than just pouring oil into the pan.
Try doing exercises in the seated position. Search on You-Tube for "chair exercises" or "seated workout" or "chair yoga". Check with your doctor first, but these exercises may help you tone up without over-working your heart.
Beyond anything else, don't give up. There are many things you can do to help yourself, but know that there are lots of people here on MFP that can and will support you. Take it 1 lb at a time, one step at a time, and you WILL make it. I believe in YOU.0 -
I'm 5'2.75. My goal was 115, but unless the remaining 3 lbs come from my stomach, I'll have to go down to 110.0

I'm just shy of 5'3" (but I round up lol). My lowest weight as an adult was 5 years ago I was 105 lbs briefly at my peak half marathon training but normally around 110lbs. That is my current 'goal' but I'm not stressing. I was 115 the last time I went on the scale, which I rarely do. I prefer to go by how my cloths fit. I'm happy right now and if I lose a few that would be awesome, if not it's totally cool. When I get to 124 I really spill out of my cloths and feel uncomfortable in my skin. I'm very petite boned I should add.0

5' 2.5, my goal weight is 150. The minimum I am willing to go is 145. My lowest adult weight was 161.1. I'm 161.4 now.0

@GOINSTD12 thank you so much ill try harder. thanks again for the motivating advice. I'm looking up the exercise in youtube right now.0

I don't have a weight loss goal. I don't care about the scale. I want to look & feel good. The scale has very little to do with those things.0
