5ft 3.5 - 5ft 4 ladies - goal weight?

Im like 5'4 and a half....Anyways. I started at 217, currently at 193. I am very hippy, and very well endowed--mine seems high but my goal is like 165-170. I was 175 before, and I looked awesome . At 193, I am currently in a 30 waist--or size 10. dress size is probably a 12. So I think another 25 lbs will take me right to where I want to be.

Wow...the different ways women carry their weight and the variance in sizes always amaze me, I'm 5'4" also and approx. 164lbs and I'm BUSTING out of my size 12 pants! And there is NO WAY I could get into a size 10 ANYTHING!

Im wondering if youre thinking UK sizes and shes thinking US sizes

Well I'm thinking US sizes, if she's thinking UK sizes that would explain a lot, though this is not the first time I've noted (to myself mostly) that a lot of different women, my height and of various weights wear various sizes of clothing.

a UK 10 is a US size 6 , and a US size 10 is a UK size 14
so thinking of a US size 10, I could be that unil I was around 150lbs

i am 5ft 4in... my starting weight in my before pic is 198. I am at my goal weight at 135. Have been maintaining for 5 years. I continue to use this sight to stay accountable and to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Everyone carries weight distribution differently.. you have to find what feels right for you.. where you feel healthy.

hope this was helpful. Best of luck!

Im Canadian...haha. So its american. I think im a uk 12/14. At least the panties my mother in law sends me for christmas (Hubby is a brit--and if you don't get underwear in the stocking, you're not family) are a 12/14.

ROFL! Nice!

I'm 5'2.5 almost 5'3, my goal is to be 120. I need to lose 19 pounds...seems daunting.

Hellooo .. I'm 5'4" ... current weight: 230 -- yuckkkk ..... My current goal is ~150 and then re-assess. Maybe drop a few more pounds or add some muscle.


I'd just go with the flow and stop when you feel comfortable. As long as you think you look good and you're health/lab numbers are normal, you'll be fine

I'm 5'3" - my goal weight is between 135-140 lbs...I will re-evaluate once I get to 140 lbs (which has been my initial goal since I began this journey August 2012.

5'4" here~

Highest weight was around 160. Original goal was 120, but since I've discovered weight lifting, now I'm not so sure.
I'm currently around 140, hoping to lose some more weight and inches.
I'd love a 25" waist *__*

I'm 5'3 1/2" and my goal weight is 120. I'm usually around 127-130, but after recent health issues, I weighed in at 141 this past Sunday. I plan on competing in a fitness bikini competition later this year, so I believe a toned 120 will be prefect for me, as I carry a curvy figure.

5' 3.5"

starting weight, 172
current weight, 162.6
goal weight, 130

If I can get to this point I'll be happy. 125 might be better, but honestly I haven't been 125 since 8th grade. There's no way I'm going lower than that. I don't want to be a twig, just healthy, and less than 125 I don't believe would be healthy for me.

I don't have a clue where *I* want my goal weight to be. at the moment, my eating disorder wants my weight to be 105lbs - I want to recover but lose weight at the same time. I am nowhere near underweight - 167lbs, 5ft 4.

what is your goal weight?

Depends on your body composition, how much body fat vs lean tissue you have.
I'm 5'5" and currently have a body comp of 28% body fat. I'd like to get between 165-170 and maintain the 135 lbs of lean tissue I have. More lean tissue = more calorie burning = more food to maintain!

Have you ever had this done? According to BMI, my "healthy" weight range is 111-149. If I made it to 149 with maintaining my lean tissue, I'd be 9.3% body fat. Much too low for a woman of child bearing age.

we are like the same person

I will add you, same person.

how did you work out how much of your body is lean tissue?

I am 5'4" and currently weigh 178, my goal right now is to get down to 160, then 150. My thinnest was 120 but I was 21 then. I'm now 33 and don't need to be skinny, just feel healthy and comfortable with myself.

5'4

Highest weight: 178.8
Current weight 139
Goal Weight 128.8 (50 lbs from my highest)

I'm only 5'3. I hate when I can't participate.

SW: 347
CW: 316.4
GW: 160

I am 24 yrs old and 5'5"

My mother is anorexic (4'11" and 95lbs or so) and I am a binge eater. I understand how hard it is. I hope that you are seeing someone to help/support your recovery with your eating disorder.

Best of luck!

I'm 5'4 and my goal weight is actually 140. For my body type, I look good at that weight. (And nobody thinks I weigh that much.) When I'm at a healthy weight I have a very thin, curvy waistline but a big, round butt, which is just how I'm built. If I keep working out then I could conceivably get back to 130, which would be good too, but anything below 130 would too thin for me. Anything below 120 and I would look like a skeleton with my hip bones sticking out. But everyone has a different body type. You should set goals based on your body, not on some number that's in your head.
