5'3 / 5'4 Women; Goal Weight

124

Replies

  • 5'4" here, SW 197, CW 188, have an initial GW of 150.

    I broke my leg (tibia) back in early April (at 197 lbs) and have been on non-weight bearing restriction along with recovering from surgery. I've managed to lose with strict dieting so far (1200 cals, mostly fish and protein shakes), but have stalled out this past month. My shorts size has gone from size 14 down to 8-10 though, but only because of losing so much muscle.

    Running is out (for the rest of my life, due to the break running down into the ankle joint), so I have an elliptical and new bicycle ready to go as soon as I get the all okay from the Doc. Just 3 more days, and very nervous about trying to walk again.

    Your goal weight should be according to your height and weight. As your height is 5 '3'/5 '4'4 and you are women then your goal weight should be medium frame and your goal weight should 118 lbs. To reach your goal weight you should exercise three times in a week, maintain your diet and exercise to keep your body in lean shape.

    I'm 5'3" and my starting/current weight is around 153. I'm hoping to bring that down to 120, but if I'm happy at 125 I may just maintain…or lose even more than that- who knows!
    I would love love love to be 130 by halloween, so I can feel more confident taking part in my crazy college town's festivities!

    I'm 5'3. I weight 125. My goal is under 110. But not much under. I'm a little twig under all this fat, though, if wrist size is anything to go by.

    I'm 5'4 and my goal weight is 110, I'm currently 133.8 with my highest weight at 140. I'm taking things slow as I'm going to Hawaii March of 2015 so I'm in no rush to get down to 110. My plan is to be at least 105 but I want to be in good shape with muscle and become toned which will at more weight. So Anywhere between 105-110 and I'll be quite satisfied :)

    hi, I am 5'2 SW 192lbs, CW 131lbs, GW 116lbs. Really struggling with motivation at the moment (so feel free to add me as I need additional buddies particularly with similar goals) but really hoping to get down to 116. I was 125 a few weeks ago but struggled with a binge holiday so hopefully going to get back on track soon.. Good luck everyone with achieving their goals.

    My goal is between 115-110. It seems low to some people, but I don't really intend to stay that way, my goal is mostly to lose body fat. That way I can start seriously gaining muscle.

    I am 5'4". I use to be 218.6 and my original goal was 127. I ended up making it down to 115 and that actually seemed pretty good for my frame. I gained back some weight over the winter and I am now working that off before winter comes again. I think I like 115 - 118 ish best but I seem to look pretty much the same between 115 and 123.

    I am 5'3, current weight 205. Originally started at 194, lost 23 lbs and gained it all back and then some after 3 months of steroids because of an eye issue. Hoping to get down to a solid 140-145. I tend to look thinner than my weight!

    Muscle burns more fat so you would be better off if you start on your weight training now instead of waiting to hit a goal weight.
  • I'm 5'3. Starting weight was 165. Current weight is 159. I'd like to get down to 125-130. I've been working out 5x a week and eating better for the last three months, but not seeing much progress on the scale and only modest improvement shows with the measuring tape. I'm starting to get discouraged and question whether I am eating too much or doing something wrong. :(

  • I'm 5 foot 3 and a half, and yes that HALF matters LOL! I am currently 118 and at my goal weight, with a BMI of 21. Working on bringing my % body fat down now. =)

    I started at 272 with a BMI of over 47 (Class IV Super-Obese) so I think I'm rocking it! =)

    5"3- 5"4 (depends whether or not I've done yoga recently!). At the moment I'm 145, my goal weight at the moment is around the 120 mark but I'm going to see how I feel once I start lifting weights - my body fat percentage (20% in an ideal world) is far more important to me than the number on the scale right now. If my shape feels right and I can continue improving sports-wise, I'll be happy.

    I'm in between 5'3 / 5'4 height. SW 220 and CW is 198 - aiming for 1400 cals per day and exercise 4-5 times per week.
    I'm thinking I'd like to get down to 120-130.
    I did a blog post about goal setting, including goal weight & calories.
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/MKEgal/view/setting-goals-667045

    According to this BMI chart: http://www.shapeup.org/bmi/bmi6.pdf
    at 5'4" the healthy weight range is 110 - 140, so your goal is reasonable.
    Aim for between 1200-1400 total calories per day (not net) & you'll get there.

    Absolutely you are rockin' it! :drinker: :flowerforyou:
    Way to go!!! You've lost more than half your starting weight, which is amazing.
