    I am 5ft 7 and aiming to get to 140 as my goal. 125 would be very thin wouldn't it? When I was 140lb before I felt comfortable and my face was starting to look a bit gaunt .

    Hi! 5'7" (well, maybe a smidge under), 19 years old, currently 120 lbs. I'm a yoyo-er, so I know what it feels like to be up there, and right now I'm trying to figure out how to make (the right) changes into habits, maybe gain a little in muscle. I'll add you!

    5'7 and i'm currently between 143-144, mainly looking to firm up some areas but if I could drop another 10 or so lbs that would be great too!

    125 is still in the healthy BMI range, but I know for me it would be way too thin. I start to look really gaunt when I fall below 145.

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you guys want. I am currently maintaining, but am willing to help when I can. I try to stay between 145 and 150.

    5'6 @ 125lbs, down from 144lbs (= 65kg, 7 months ago).
    Now very close to goal weight of 123.5 lbs (56kg). And no...unfortunately I am not thin yet. Still have a belly, ever so slight double chin and bigger upper arms. Nevertheless, will not lose more than another pound or two.

    I'm 5'7", generally weigh between 120 and 140, though rarely at the extreme ends, currently 129, want to be 125 when I'm done and then start to work on body recomp. I might be able to gain some then, depending on how it works out. As far as 125 being too thin, I have a pretty small frame, so it works, I think. If you tend to be more sturdily built, it might be too little.

    Hey there. I'm 5'7'' currently 141 lbs (down from 171) and looking to get to around 16-18%bf (currently 21%) so not sure where weight wise that will put me. I am pear shaped and most of my weight is in my hips and butt. Good luck on your fitness goals!!

    I'm 5'7"...started at 180lb, currently 138lb. Looking to get to 130lb, but with my new weight training regime, I'm not sure I'll get there and to be honest, I'm OK with that - I quite like how I'm looking now, just need some more toning. Also want to drop BF% - scales say I'm currently 26.7%, body calipers say I'm 21-22%. I know both aren't terribly reliable, but I would like to see the numbers drop a little so I can see some muscle definition.

    I think everyones body carries weight differently -- I am a pear shape, and when I have been 125 previously I have looked good and most importantly FELT good & HEALTHY! I don't think we should judge each other for wanting to weigh a certain amount, lets keep positivity going! we have so much negative already from ourselves!

    yes ladies we can do this :) maybe if i started a group, others would want to join?

    WOW! you've done amazing!! Apparently those small amounts are the hardest to drop, but don't give up now :) I posted a group that i've created :)

    I am sure you are thin :) have you taken measurements and progress pictures? sometimes they help more than scales! muscle is heavier than fat too so if you're working out that might be why. as long as you're healthy and happy thats fine, however i will motivate you the best way i can! you can do it! i created a group which i posted further up

    @naught to sixty: recomposition -- lose fat, gain muscle without changing weight much. Toning, in other words.

I know you can do it too!
