Looking for 5'8"-ish girls! goal weight?

nhouse3417 · July 2013

I am 5'7'' and my goal is 145, ultimate goal of 140 but if it happens it happens. I am currently at 145 and loving my body. I am in the Old Navy tank in my profile picture.

Hi! Im 5'7, and i weigh 247.2 lbs right now, but my goal weight is 170. Just because before i had children that was my weight. lol

sydoe94 · July 2013

My goal is 125! Only 14 lb left!

HollyBollyHotTamale · July 2013

I'm about 5ft 8, and at my fitness assessment, my trainer said that my body is about 140lbs of just tissue and bones, so she said realistically I should aim for 180.

145

iara333 · July 2013

5"9 my short term aim is 143 and then I'll reassess the situation. Hopefully it'll be enough since my legs are mainly muscle!

I'm about 5'8 and my current goal weight is around 145, but am toying with the idea of 130-135 after it's all said and done. I used to be around 150-155 and liked the way I looked, as well as how I felt, but still wasn't quite down as far as I wanted. Now, I'm able to fully commit and with my job (nice workout for the day), I am already dropping the weight after only being employed at said job for only about a month and a half (jeans are falling off without belt lol). I haven't weighed myself since joining, but will probably do so within the next month to see what a difference it has made

Edited to include: I weighed about 180 when I joined MFP

im 5'8'' and my goal weight is 125. Im 158 now, so I have a long way to go!

Rockmyskinnyjeans · July 2013

I'm just under 5'7" and my original goal weight was 145 lbs. I'm happily hanging around 135 lbs now. I am a medium framed female.

flynnem4 · July 2013

im always surprised when 5'8 girls have such low weights or goal weights, you must have super tiny frames! I have a medium frame and my goal is 160 with an ultimate goal weight of 150. I am currently just under 180

I'm in the same goal weight boat; I feel good at 160-165, so that's what I"m aiming to get back to. I've got a bit further to go than you though, right at 190 right now.

I have a pretty wide frame, so my goal weight is 140-150sh.

beastmodekittyx · July 2013

I'm 5ft8 and my weight goal for now is 145lbs

StarChanger · July 2013

I'm 5'8" and am at my goal weight of 117.

This is UNDERWEIGHT...not even a BMI of 18. Even if you're modeling, this is unhealthy.

And for myself, 5'8" and looking for 145-160 lbs

NumbrsNerd · July 2013

I'm 5'8. Started at 222 - aiming for 140. I'm 168 now and a size 10 Misses - 11/13 Juniors.

pkw58 · July 2013

My goal weight is 128... perfectly happy down two pounds or up a pound. I am 5'8" .

teelynn35 · July 2013

My lightest was 123, not a healthy weight for me. I'd like 133 I'm 5'8 and currently at 153 lbs

Mustang_Susie · July 2013

5' 7.5"

I'm at 116# now

CoffeeNBooze · July 2013

it depends on your frame size and also how you feel comfortable. If you don't know what size frame you have, you can measure your wrist and look it up on google. I am 5'7 and a small frame, right now I'm about 126 and start to look lumpy at 130 (I'm also naturally muscular). You can also look up your ideal weight range for your frame size. Hope this helps! It helped me.

annakow · July 2013

Hi I am 5.7 , 52 lbs lost and counting:)

Kai81109 · July 2013

i'm 5'9 and before i put on all my weight i weighed 125 and was constantly told i look sickly so i dont think goin that low would be good again so i switched my goal weight to 135-145 as long as i stay in that range im happy..

vytamindi · July 2013

Dang... and here I was thinking I was getting close to my goal of 160. It's probably not my ultimate goal, but a good place for me to start assessing body comp.

waterwaif · July 2013

I am 5'10" with a small frame and my goal weight is 130-135.

Everyone's mileage varies, though, and two women the same height will still carry weight differently. My 135 might look totally different on you.

salleymo · July 2013

I am 5'8" and I've always been around 148-150, I was never a big girl but wasn't quite skinny either. I am currently 211 and aiming to get to at least 164-155, after all, I'm not trying to get back to high school weight b/c that was 11 years ago. I just want to be in the correct BMI

ashandloggiesmom · July 2013

I'm 5.7 and I felt the most comfy at 160 pounds. I have a medium frame. I was lean but still had curves, but not as much as I do now

KAYRRIE · July 2013

I'm 5'7 and have a bigger frame. My goal is 150, however, I would be completely ok if I stood at 170 as long as it's more muscle mass than fat. I need some meat on my bones for the hubby.

mommyrocks5 · July 2013

I'm 5'9" my goal weight is 125-127. I am currently 141.5 ( I was at goal last summer but fell off the food and exercise wagon) want to get back to that comfortable in my own skin weight. Medium build and naturally muscular.

JanAlyssa825 · July 2013

I'm 5'8" and would ultimately like to be 140 - I keep hitting plateaus, but I'm trying to power through it. When I get to 140, I may think about 135, but I'm not sure that's doable for me. Currently working my butt off at the gym and counting calories religiously!
