    Starting weight 195 lbs
    Current weight 180 lbs
    Goal weight 155 lbs

    It seems so far away. I'd love to get to 135 lbs, but I don't know if I could do it.

    I have to agree with misskarne. 110lbs is heading into anorexic town at our height... :disappointed:

    She's already underweight and wanting to get further underweight? Yeah, not rude.

    That's about the stats of my 18 year old. It's her body type. She is very much in shape and healthy. Everyone is different.

    I'm 5'8" and my goal is around 150 lbs. The lowest I've ever been is 160, and I wore a US size 4.

    This is an example of how everyone is different. At that weight (150) & height, I wore a solid size 8/10. Everyone is built different.

    I'm 5'7" (in my mind closer to 5'8" lol) I currently weigh 122/123, but my goal weight is 115 - 118. Honestly, with my frame, I feel like I can go as low as 110 and look good. :smile:

    122 is the borderline of underweight..110 is a BMI of 16.7 and puts someone at serious risk of long term health issues

    It is not rude to point out this is not any where near a healthy weight and means the patient is likely not getting enough nutrients

    I'm 173cm which I think is 5'8. SW was 93.2kgs. CW is 88.2kgs. GW is 70kgs. Everyone seems so light. I must have a large frame because under 70kgs would be a struggle for me to maintain.

    I do have a large frame, and am at just about 70kg now (actually a touch under that but within my "range") - I always suspected I had a large frame, but second-guessed the wrist measurements and such... they couldn't possibly be accurate because I was 100+ pounds overweight! So I always used the Medium option on estimation calculators, that's partly how I came up with 145lbs as my initial goal. But recently I measured my wrist again and now that I've lost the 100 lbs and then some, my wrist still measures 6.5 inches, which actually is a large frame after all, and makes my CW of 152lb/68kg just about golden.

    I'm 5'8" and started at 196, I'm now 157 and aiming for 140 - I originally thought I wanted to be 130, but looking at myself now I don't think I have that much more to lose in order to be healthy/happy!
