    I'm 5' 3" and my first GW was 137 after starting at 173. I'm now down to 142 so I've dropped my GW to 127 because I definitely have some thigh and tummy fat that I think will take more than 5 pounds to smooth out. I'm 21 years old by the way.

    I'm about 5'2 or almost 5'3, CW is 202 or so. My goal weight is 130 on MFP but I'd like to be about 140. After my first child I dropped down to about 140 and was pretty content. Curvy and such but happy. After my other kids I dropped to about 170 and bam gained 35 lbs in less than a year...I'm heavier now than I was post partum with all my kids. Strange thought for me..

    5'4" and 130 is my goal, but tbh I will probably shoot for 120 if I find 130 maintainable. I don't have a lot to lose, but I've never known myself under 135 at this height

    5ft 3.5in - SW 144, CW 125. Was down to 120 recently, but can't seem to break it. Am trying different things ATM. I still feel too big for me at 120. Would like to get under 115. To each their own.

    I am 5'4". My starting weight was 225 at a size 18, Im currently at 180 and a size 13. My goal weight is 140, depending on how I look at that weight I may aim lower.

    120, maybe 115 I think I could stand to lose a little more once I reach 120. I was 120 a couple of years back and thought I was on the right side of being small though.

    Am 5 foot 3 and 28 years old.

    5'4", 43 yrs young and my goal is also 140. So nice to see similar goals above! I got to 130 in 2009, but it was hell to maintain (obviously). Lol

    I'm 5'3.5 and 27 years old. My happy weight is 120lb, where I'd maintained for 2 years after going down from 150lb (currently back up to 130lb after "Christmas" (yeah I know it's May...))

    5'3", 40 years old, 6 kids, large frame and my goal is 145, but I would be happy at 150. A few years ago I got down to 140 and it was too small for me.

    I am 5'3.5" and my personal ideal weight would be 160/165 lbs, i did get down to 144 lbs about 8 years ago but i didn't feel right that low as it was a little bit too thin for me and i was quite unhappy.

    Juuuuust under 5'4'' here. 30, no kids, small frame.

    SW (Jan 2014): 160/170 - estimate. Was too scared to weigh myself. Looked visibly overweight.
    CW: 120
    LW: 118
    GW: 115

    It's interesting to read the variety at our height point. I know a lot of women with bigger frames (I'm not TINY but I have no hips, fairly small wrists/lower arms, etc) who are my height and look great in the 130s/140s, but it seems like high teens/low 20s is the best point for me. I haven't really lost in a few months, but I've also been increasing my strength training, so even though the scale isn't moving, I do see differences in how my body looks, clothes fit, etc. I really do want to see that 115 on the scale at least once, just because I thought I could never do it, but I think I'll be happy with maintaining in my current 118-121 range.

    I'm 5'3, 33 years old and have 1 child. CW is 128, GW is 125. I got down to 121 last year and I liked myself at that weight but I heard from a lot of people I was too skinny. So when I get to 125 I'll see how I feel.

    Just under 5'4" (162cm).
    SW: 189 (Jan 2015)
    CW: 163
    GW: 140

    When I get to 140 I'll be in a healthy BMI range which is my main aim for now. I know I will look fine at that weight, but for years (pre-children) I was 130 and that was a good weight for me, so when I get to 140 I will see how I feel and potentially move slowly towards 130.

    Goal weight is 120. I got down to 117 a few years ago and really I should have just stopped at 8st8.

    I am 5'4" and 45 after 2 kids, I will be happy with 145, but whatever I weigh that I feel like I look good. I started out at 218 and currently at 208.

    Starting weight 143, current weight 135 - Would like to get down to 120 but don't want to beat myself up to do it, going to aim for 126 and go slowly from there

    I'm 5'4... my first goal is 180. I haven't been under 200 since before I was a teen so once I get to 180, I plan on re-assessing things and going from there. I suspect 150-160ish will be where I'll set my final goal.
