    I'm 5'4 and aiming for 127. That's the lowest I've ever weighed, however I got there in a very unhealthy way (starving) and as a result, stacked the weight on again afterwards! I want to get there in a healthy way this time. I have about 5-6 lbs to go and I'm telling you they do NOT want to come off!

    I am 5'5 and am shooting for 145 but really it is going to depend on my body fat % when I get down to there. I will re-evaluate at that point and may just shoot for lowering body fat % and not pay attention to the scale. I REALLY want to get to 145 though because that would be just 100 lbs loss for me and that would be WAY cool :)

    im 5'3 my goal was 115 got to be 115.6 ... not easy to maintain for me, Im usually now at 120 or a lil less...
  • I'm 5'9" and my official goal here is 168--which is the high end of a "healthy" BMI for me. I would LOVE to get to 149 though, so I can tell people I've lost 100 lbs, haha. Once I get closer to that first goal, I plan to reevaluate based on body fat % and whatnot. :)

    5'4" here and am aiming for 115-120. I always hovered around this weight in high school and early 20s and felt comfortable with my body then. But this was also when I was a "fat skinny person" lol. My goal for my body nowadays is to tone up and be able to wear a two piece bathing suit confidently. (I was never comfortable wearing one, even in my younger days because I was really soft and jiggly- or so my teenage brain thought.) Once I reach 125 I will reassess how I feel and how my clothes fit.

    I am 5ft 1in and my initial goal was 117lbs.

    I am now down to 119lbs and have decided to go to 112lbs - which was pretty much my happiest weight... Makes me a UK size 8/10.

    5'6" and would like to get down to 150... once I make it there I will re-evaluate. Only 80lbs to go! Whoooo
  • I'm just under 5'1" and would like to be about 115. I got there and maintained for well over 2 years and then suddenly I've steadily gained 10lbs the last 5 or so months...7 of those since I started MFP. I think they set my calorie goals too high so I am going to cut them back a bit because that is how I lost it before and kept it off. My lowest weight was 109 and that was nearly impossible to maintain without starving or not doing any strength exercises, and I want to be fit, not skinny fat. The funny thing is, I am still able to wear the same size jeans at 125 that I could wear at 115. So I'm guessing some of my weight gain has been muscle?

    thanks so much to everyone who is posting their goal weight and success so far!! It makes me feel a lot better about the goal that I have picked for myself, and I know, that I will know, when I get to the real weight that I wanna be at and feel that I can maintain easily afterwards :)

    I'm 4'11.5 and I just reached the top of my goal range which is 108-112. More importantly though, I want to keep my bodyfat percentasge to < 20%. My lowest weight was 103 and I looked sickly. I love and want to keep some curves...especially my bootay, lol :tongue:

    Do what makes you feel comforatable!

    I am 5'2 and aiming for 135 ,but then want to tone and reach for 115 :) best wishes
  • I'd count the scolders as haters, unless they can validate their concerns. I'm 5'4 and shooting for 125. I thought at one point that this was to low but I just wasn't happy at 130, and so I made it a goal to be 125 and perfectly healthy and it is possible.

    I'm 5'4" and my goal is 140-145. But I have a very thick frame, I have absolutly no fat on my calves and ankles but my hubby calls my ankles "cankles" because I really don't have an ankle since my bones are so thick!!! I can't even wear anklets because they wont fit around my ankle!!! If I went below 140 I think I would look really sick and unhealthy..... it just depends on your build and what weight looks good on your body!!!

    My goal is 125-130, and I'm 5'6". NOT any less than that though... I've been 112 before & I didn't look good! That was like 7 years ago, and everyone told me I needed to eat more back then.
