  • I have a medium frame. I always thought I was a large frame but after I lost some weight I realized I had fat around my wrist making it seem bigger than it was.

    I'll see how I feel at 125 and decide if I want to lose more. I have wide hips but my chest and shoulders are so tiny. It'd be real nice if the fat on my *kitten*, hips, lower belly, and thighs would start disappearing. It's weird being able to see my rib bones in between my breasts but still having a lot of fat on my lower body.
  • I've always been pretty curvy my whole life. Big butt and thick thighs even at my smallest (125 pds). Gained a lot after high school and during my 7 year relationship. Recently my doctor told me I have pre-diabetic stats.. high sugar etc. So that has really shoved me in the right direction and now I'm determined. Have already lost 2 pds in last 6 days. There are so many girls on here doing awesome that are around my height and weight! That's definitely inspiring me to push myself.Slowly but surely! lol

    I'm actually not unhappy with my weight, have some extra baggage I'd like to remove/reshape from my middle. Focusing on toning, strengthening with a slight deficit. If I don't hit the 120's its fine.

    I usually get to 149 and give up. Would love to get under 140 but to be honest if I can comfortably fit into a uk size 10 (us size 6 I think) I'll be happy. Currently a size 12-14.

    Not 100% sure about goal weight. Never been this small. We'll see.

    If you would have told me in January I would weight 164 in September I would have said you are nuts! So happy with my progress. YAY!: bigsmile:

    My brain will be happy at 145, but after that I don't care much what my weight is. I will just be working for fitness at that point and what will be, will be.

    I don't think I'd want to be under 130 but hey we'll see how I feel once I get there! The way I'm shaped makes it unlikely that much under that would look good on me.

    I had actually achieved below this goal already, but gained the pesky pounds during "maintenance" (It's what I'll call happy in a new relationship weight! :love: )

    You've got really decent height and are carrying your weight well; you look slim and fit.

    I personally think 115 is a bit much for someone your height. When I was 128 I was too skinny. You're life, do what you want.

    because you have exactly the same shape and body fat percentage as she does? it varies widely based on these inputs. i'm 5'4" and am 107 lbs and am fine. I was fat when I was over 140. Do you realize that according to BMI, 145 is the borderline of overweight for that height? Maybe you're fine due to body fat percentage, but it's likely that so is someone at 5'4" and 115.

    I'm 5'6" and weigh 141.7 as of this morning. My goal weight is 135, but subject to change. That was my pre-pregnancy weight (like oh, 9 years ago now!), but I'm getting more interested in achieving an ideal body now (particularly now that I've started weight lifting), not just an ideal weight. So, we'll see!
    Looking good with good height.

    You seem to have a fit and quality body from your profile pic on your relatively tall frame.

    I personally think 115 is a bit much for someone your height.

    I tend to agree with this, BTW ;)
    I think that really depends on body type. I am 5'5" and was most comfortable at 117. I'm chesty but have generally have a very small frame (I literally have the hips of a 12 year old boy). 115 can be appropriate for someone who is 5'5" if they are naturally petite and smaller boned.

    Well 5'5" isn't exactly petite height for a woman, but I understand what you're saying.

    SW: 192 lbs (started losing weight before I started using MFP)
    CW: 121 lbs
    GW: ~110 - 115 lbs, I have a small frame. But i also want to do some body recomp to build some muscle so i may end up being higher.

    You look at a good, slim weight right now, and 121 sounds it. You are not exactly short at 5'4". If you were a couple of inches shorter, and thus actually were kind of short, 110 might be more realistic then. Just saying.

    GW 180 (for now)

    My best weight was 150, any smaller and I looked extremely thin on top. I'm a pear shape.

    I have currently changed my goal weight to 153. that will put me barely in a healthy BMI range.(My current weight is 250.0 now.)

    I'm 5'4"!
    My SW was 145 and my CW is ~138.
    My goal weight is between 115-120 :)

    You don't look 145, considering your medium-like height. I am slightly shorter than you and weigh less than that, but I certainly look much bigger than you do, I assure you.
