    Hey. I am 5'7. My starting weight was 184, cw 164 and goal is 145. When I reach 145 I will reset to 135.

    That being said, when I was in my early 20's I stayed around 125 and looked great. But at 53 I look great at anything under 150. So folks may say 120 is too small for you, but it's probably fine if you're young.

    120lbs is not too tiny by any means for 5"7. 115 would be ideal.

    It is quite tiny, 115 is way too tiny. I was there when I was a teenager and I don't want to go back. All my ribs could be seen, I had no muscle and I ate almost nothing. It was a torture.

    I am 172cm (5'5.7''), my highest weight was probably 171, current 158, lowest 114. My goal weight is somewhere between 132 - 138.

    Edit: BMI for 115 lbs (52 kg) and 170 cm is little below 18. Normal weight is with BMI 18-24,99.

    I am 5'7" and 19 years old. I started at 193lbs, now I am 178lbs and my first goal weight is 150lbs and then I will reevaluate after that. I have never been less than 165lbs since high school began.

    I am 155 and goal weight is 120-125 which I was for the longest time. But we will see when I get down there... I am quite a bit older than you so I am not sure how it will look on me now.

    Hi 5'7 here currently 273 but losing steady. I exercise as much as I can, mostly cardio but will put in strength training in another 30 or 40 lbs down. I've been as low as 206 but never lower. I plan on getting to 155 and then maybe adding more strength training to tone. I am a pretty large boned person so don't believe it will be healthy to go much below 155.
    Anyone feel free to add me

    I'm 5'7 and feel that I look overweight at 128, so I have a goal weight of 120, however as a dancer I have a lot of muscle, which is restricting me falling below around 125 without losing muscle mass. Could your problem be similar?

    I'm 5'7" and currently 165. I'm hoping to get down into the 150s because I have never been that light as an adult. I think your goal weight should reflect your build and your fitness goals. I love to lift weights and feel strong, so I don't think I'll go lower than the 150s. The hubby also likes a little junk in the trunk, so I don't want to be too small ;) . Good luck to everyone in reaching their goals!

    I am also 5'7, starting weight of 155. I'm focusing on clothing size rather than weight - I'm currently in a size 12 pants and would love to get down to an 8/10. I think that's probably around 135 or 140 for me.

    5'7" CW 157, I don't have a goal weight really. I just wanna look good in my clothes and lifting has helped that.

    I'm 5'7 SW 190 havent weighed myself since but notice that my clothes are fitting much looser. I am only going to weigh once a month so if I don't lose on a weekly basis I don't get discouraged. MY GW is 145 I think its achievable I was that weight before my first child. I am curvy and sporty build so theres no way I'd ever be able to get to 120 and look healthy.

    5'7 with a goal weight of 128 and 16% bodyfat. It's low but do-able.

    5'7" here! SW: 212-215, CW- 175, GW- 159. I'm starting with 159 as my goal weight, and looking more at clothing size than an end goal weight. I can currently wear 12s in most things, and I was absolutely shocked when I tried on a size 10 dress this weekend and it fit. I would love to be toned and be able to fit into a size 8, whatever weight that ends up being!

    238.8 right now.
    My highest weight ever was 293, lowest 164. I did not like being either weight. I'm looking to be at a happy, healthy 185.

    I am 5'7" and my sw was 204. And am at 183. Goal# 1 is to get to 160. Goal #2 will try for another 10 to get to 150.

    If I was 130 I wouldn't have nothing to worry about

    I am 5'7 currently 171 lbs. Not sure what my goal weight is, I will probably base it on pants size and %BF instead of just on weight. In my dreams, 125-130...

    5'8 and my goal is 165 (which is 40lbs less than what I am now) I carry my weight very well and am generally happy with how I look now, but I'd like to be fitter, lighter and tighter. I have long limbs and would probably start ot look sickly if I went below 145.
