    I'm 5'2" and my goal is 135. After I had my son I got down to 140 and wore a size 6. That's a good soze for me. Slim but still have curves. ;)

    I'm 5'2 1/2". My CW is in the upper 150s and I am happy here, but if I lose more then I will be OK with that too!

    I'm 5'3", and I've never really seen myself thin, so I'm not really sure what my "frame" is.

    SW: 240-245
    CW: 203
    GW: 135

    I plan on getting to 135 and seeing where I go from there. I really love heavy lifting, so my focus is more on how I look/feel, how my clothes fit, etc., than on the number on the scale. I'm hoping to have some mean muscles by the time I'm that weight regardless. :)

    I didnt realize how small 5'3 really is until I started MFP. I am 5'3 and 30 years old. I started last year at 206 lbs and I was just shooting for 150. Now that I am 169 I am shooting for 145 lbs. But I couldnt imagine myself at 120 or 125. I was probably 137 in high school and I was always in shape until my mid 20s.

    I'm 5'3 but have a pretty curvaceous frame. I'm way overweight now (157), but everyone says I look "normal" (Maybe they're just being nice). When I was 140 I thought I looked fabulous, had a nice flat stomach, thin arms and legs, but curvy hips and butt. My goal is 135-140 and reassess when I'm there. I definitely think it depends on your structure. My friend is also 5'3 but is super top heavy and even though she's 15lbs lighter than me, she looks a little more stocky.

    I think it depends on your frame as well. You can use your wrist size the estimate your frame- http://www.superskinnyme.com/body_type_calculator.html

    I am 5'3, goal weight 125..medium frame.

    I'm 5'3" with a small frame.
    Just started a couple days ago, so no progress on the scale as of yet, but:
    SW/CW: 131
    GW: 115, though when I reach 120 I'll see how I feel and reassess.

    But my basic goal is to eat healthier and keep under 130.

    I'm 5'2, I'm down to 155 now, my goal weight is 140-145. I've been fluctuating between 155-157 and I'm not sure if it's because i'm building muscle or what but I'd like to see some more progress soon.

    5'3" here! I'm about 130 now.. I haven't checked since I started the diet I'll weigh in on Monday! I've been as low as 118 and felt good, but I could def be comfortable at 105-110! I also have a small frame:) here's my first before pic! Hopefully I'll update with progress...

    My ID says 5'4" but I swear I'm shorter lol. My goal weight was 135 and now it is 115 .. I don't want to go lower than 115 and I feel that 120 is perfect as I'm getting that "your too boney don't sit on me" from my man lol

    I'm 5'2. My weight in my 20s was 105-110. In my 30s 115-118. Now in my 40s, my goal is 120-125. I'm currently 131, so almost there. I would love to be at 115 or 118 but it is difficult for me to maintain. I already work out a minimum of 5 days a week for about 90 minutes each workout session and I keep my calorie count at about 1400. I know what you mean about clothes. I lost about 22 lbs this past year and finally had to spend the money to buy new clothes. But I gotta tell you that wearing the new clothes for my current smaller size (I wear a size 8-10 in jeans) has motivated me to continue. Whenever I go back and put on one of my "big" clothes, I feel frumpy and unmotivated to continue. So, if you can, buy at least a couple pair of nice jeans at your current weight if motivation is a concern. Good luck :smiley:

    I'm 5'2 (and a half!). My goal is 140. I've really never weighed less than that as an adult so maybe I'll want to lose more, but in college I fluctuated between 135-145 and I felt great and looked great. I tried to lose more at that point but couldn't seem to get below 135 without starving myself so my goal now is just 140. I have 4 children and I want to be realistic and have attainable goals.

    5'3 , cw 155. Goal is 120, but I'm hoping to be preggers again before then, so it's more than a year off for sure. My first pregnancy did a number on my body, so I'll have to reassess after baby #2.
