    I am 5'6, about 175 pounds. I wear a size 10 in both pants and tops, which is typically a medium or a large depending on the company. My goal weight is 150 but I might be satisfied at 160. We shall see!

    5ft 6 (168cm) ladies what's your goal weight? just looking to see what people consider realistic :) I'm currently at 162lb and at my lowest last year was 142lb but that was seriously scary, was NOT having a good time at all!
    According to BMI, a healthy range is 115-150.

    I'm about 5'5". SW: 225 (super uncomfortable and unhealthy - I blame college - definitely not Freshmen 15 - more like Freshmen 50 -.-). CW: 177 (been fluctuating for about a month and its irritating. Blah). And my GW: 160 for right now. I'll take baby steps once I hit that point. Could possibly go as low as 145. Maybe :|

    I'm 5' 6" and my goal is to get back to 140, where I was before the woes and stresses of college where I gained thirty-five pounds. Ugh. Out of college now, so I'm working to lose the weight by counting calories and cardio. I'm saying 140 right now, but depending on how I look, I could go lower. Then again, I'm a medium built and I think I might look sickly below 140. So I'll reassess when I get to my goal.

    lol all of our weights are similar...but I think 145 is too low for me considering my body type.

    I'm 5'6".

    Original GW: 150
    I got there and was like "Eh, maybe another 5"

    CW: 145
    Been here for about a year. Would kind of like to drop another 5 or maybe even 10, but it's hard to get the motivation to drop the weekend wine from my diet when I already look and feel pretty good. A little lumpy, you know, but not bad :)

    Great question ! I am 5"8' and my target is 144lb. I got that target from the Dukan diet website, but I am not following that diet anymore.

    5'6" here- goal weight is 150. SW was 275 CW is 264. I can't imagine going below 150- lowest I recall in the last 10 years is around 185 and I was a full size 12/size 14 at that time. I'm curvy as well, last time I spoke to a Dr. about it they set my goal weight around 170-175. If I get to 170 and am happy and healthy and fit and can maintain that... then I will stick with it and not force the last 20 lbs. We'll see where the journey takes me.

    Also 5'6" with a goal range of 116 to 120. Currently at 138.

    Lowest adult weight was 110, and I didn't look bad, but I was on a strict diet for my dialysis treatments, and that is the only thing that has ever kept me away from chocolate. Surprisingly, I had enough energy to keep fit, and the surgeon even commented on my strength the day I got my transplant.

    It took me two years to gain up to 116 ish, and I settled in there nicely until I moved across the country and got depressed and reclusive. I gained up to 169 and bam--no more energy.

    So I'm definitely a person who can wear and benefit from a lower body weight.

    I'm 5'6". My current goal is 145. The last time I weighed that i felt great about my body and was in a size 7/8. But my ultimate goal now is 130-135 just for health reasons and I want to have a more "slender" look.

    I'm 5'6" and I've set my first goal weight to about 145 so that I'm well into a healthy BMI. I think the lowest I'll ever want to be is in the 130s but I'm aiming for 145-ish first and then going to alter my goal from there until I'm happy with my body (:

    142 sounds healthy for your height.

    I'm 5'6"

    SW: 180
    CW: 132/134 (depending on the day LOL)
    GW: was 140 - then 130 - now I think about 125

    started stronglifts 5x5 about 5 weeks ago which is toning up things and I'm losing inches, so I might just stay around 130 depending on how I feel. BTW I'm going to be 53.

    I'm 5'6" and my current weight is 181. My goal is 145, but I have been told that that may be too small. It really just depends on how you feel and what you think!

    5'6" Goal Weight is 135. I keep fluctuating lately because I haven't been as diligent. After losing a little over 50 pounds I have been maintaining lately but want to drop the rest. It's about another 20-25 pounds.. Depends on the day lol.
    If anyone wants to add me feel free. :)
