    CW: 149.2 lbs
    GW: 135 lbs-ish

    I was 135 lbs last year and I was a size 4 jeans with a size medium/small top. This time I'm going in with more muscle so I'll be using my size 4 jeans as my judge of when to stop.

    Hi all! I'm 5'5"

    HW: 186 ( 9 months pregnant with my son in June of this year, gained 48 (eek!) pounds.)
    CW: 154
    GW: 138 (also pre-pregnancy weight and where I've always felt my best)

    We'll see if 138 looks the same on me post baby, and go from there :)

    GW: 110

    I have a small frame so I think 110 would look good on me. Also, I feel I have a lot of body fat given how much I weigh. Losing that alone may help me lose the last 10 pounds. Oh yes and I weight lift too. Squats, dead lifts, bench press and all.

    We'll see though. I don't remember what it's like to be below 250..so this is new territory! Haha.
    I just have to get myself to the point where I can make it through basic law enforcement training.

    I no longer have a goal weight, I just want to be super strong and lift all the weights. I wear a size 6 and eat like a horse (bulking) so I have no problem with the number on the scale. I will cut 8-10 pounds of fat starting in January to find the muscles I've been building. :) Really though, no real goal weight number, I just want to feel good and be strong. :)

    These threads are always kinda sad for me .... The #s. And! It always shows that body composition is so different for everyone. Take 10 random 5'4 women @ "x" amount of pounds & they will look diff. I cannot imagine weighing 115. My body comp is such that I'd have to lose a limb. I have more than 115 lbs of fat free mass.

    SW: Size XXL semi-fitted yoga pants
    CW: Size S semi-fitted yoga pants

    Strength training. Best decision EVER. started lifting @ 230 & still lifting heavy now

    Oh yea - age 51 today

    I completely agree with you. I feel as though everyone's weight goal is so low. It's a personal preference I guess.

    I'm 24 years young.

    HW 220
    CW 184
    GW 160-170

    I would even take 170 because I was that low last September. When people guess my weight they always guess 140 -160 I don't know why lol. In terms of health my blood sugar, blood pressure and everything is in the normal ranges. My blood pressure is actually on the low side.

    I guess everyone carries their weight differently. I can't imagine being below 145.
    In tops I wear all sizes (xs, s, m, and l) In pants I wear a 12-14 hoping to get down to a 10.
  • I'm 5'6" and my goal weight is between 115-120 :)

    Ultimate goal weight will probably end up around 135. Not too worried about the number, more concerned about how I look and feel.

    5'3"....ok maybe I'm 5'2" and 3/4 but the doctor rounds up and that's all that matters lol.

    Current weight is 135ish. I don't really have a goal weight. I've been as low as 105 at the end of college but I can't imagine getting anywhere near that again. Probably around 125, maybe 120. My body type is very dense so even when I'm at a lower weight, I'm fairly solid.

    My goal is really just to feel confident in clothes and comfortable rocking a crop top without feeling self-conscious. Just want to be healthy.

  • Hi!

    I'm 5'5

    CW 151
    GW 130 or less

    Haven't been 130 for a LONG time. Was keeping up a fairly comfortable weight of around 136 to 141 for about 5 years, but in the last year, I've gained the extra weight and feel uncomfortable and unhealthy. Working on this now! :)

    Though supposedly I should shoot for 154, that seems far too low and I'd be quite happy being 'overweight' as long as I'm healthy. Honestly anything under 200 would make me happy.

    CW: 178 (this is my highest weight)
    GW: 140

    I guess everyone is different because I look ill at 115. I look gaunt and skeletal. I was there and a little below when I was a drug addict. 140 is just about right for me. I look quite fit at that weight. But like others have said, I want to try to not be so fixated on a number.

    I'm about 5'5

    CW - 152
    GW - 135 or maybe 130. I just want to get below 140 and then I'll see how I look/feel. I want to get back into lifting and wish I could be a farmer again.. Those days I weighed quite a bit but was super skinny, it was just a lot of muscle.
