Hi Ladies!
I am curious to those who are 5'7", what is your current weight? Goal weight, highest weight, lowest weight, exercise per day, and calorie intake per day.
I just want to see where I should be aiming for (I know bodies are different, but I want a general idea).
Thank you in advance!
Will keep posting on this thread.

HI there! Thought I'd take a moment to respond to this thread.
CW: 157.2
GW: 130 and then we'll see
HW: 207 (pregnancy back to back)
Exercise per day: Running 3x a week, walk daily around 30 mins
Calorie intake: I haven't been tracking for a week or so, but it says my aim should be 1200. . . I find it hard not to overshoot that number.
Looking forward to seeing all the responses : )0 -
SW: 169
CW: 132
GW: 129
Exercise: 5 times per week, variety. Cardio (bike etc), + some weights, walking, 1 x / wk Zumba
Maintenance calories are around 1650 I believe.0 -
I'm 5'8" but I figured that might be close enough
starting weight- 250 (not sure of current weight because I'm not weighing in until June 30th)
GW- 150
Highest weight- 260
Lowest weight- 140
My exercise varies daily, but I usually walk/jog for 30min a day right now. I have been out of the gym for a couple months since moving, but we are signing back up this weekend and then I will be doing a mix of lifting and some cardio 3-5 days a week. And my intake is around 1700 cal/day for right now.0 -
I'm 5'8
Starting weight 245
CW: 240
GW: 180

I walk all day at work and lift very heavy objects also, then do zumba for an 1hr four days out of the week. I just started zumba tho! Calorie intake about 1600 or so!0 -
CW: 134
GW: 127
HW:137
LW: 120
I don't count my calories. I just try to eat more than 50% of each meal raw veggies and fruit.
I stick to mainly vegetarian diet.0 -
cw = 136 lbs
gw = might maintain here, might lose 5 or so pounds
highest weight = 198 (years ago - that was not my starting weight this time. my starting weight for my deliberate weight loss 4 yrs ago was 178, got down to 124 stayed there for years, then regained. Starting weight was ~145 this time.)
lowest weight = 115 (not on purpose) and 124 (on purpose)
exercise per day = depends. on hiatus right now but usually 45 mins on a bike, or resistance, 3-5 days/week
calories = 2000-2300 for a long time, including when i was 124. now eating more like 1900 because exercising less - still losing0 -
I'm 5'8
HW: 177
CW: 150
LW: 133
My goal weight is 135. I workout 4-5 days a week for about 40min-1h30.
On average I have around 1700 kcals a day. Most of my meals are raw plant based0 -
I'm 5'7. Current weight 154. Target weight 140 to begin with, then maybe 130 depending on how I look and feel. I'm not very curvy so figure I should be aiming for the lower end of normal BMI ultimately.0

I'm 5' 8"
CW 210
GW 150
I'm going on 1300 cal a day.
I am walking/running about 2 miles a day.0 -
I am 5.7.
CW: 165
GW: 132 (I think I will want to carry on after this to get to 120, but for starters)
LW: 116 (Bikini Model in younger years)
HW: 174
1200 calories a day, which I find I can manage 9 days out of 10. I have no intention of increasing this.
I ride a stationary bike a couple of times a week 20mins at a time and am going to start some weight training this week, whatever my energy levels can manage. I will pick up the pace down the line. One thing at a time.0 -
CW - 140
GW - 130 - 132
LW - 124 (and I realized that I didn't look great at it...so I don't want to go that low again)
I am a bit flexible with calories and allow for variation; some days can be 800, 900 cal days and others can be 1350 or 1450... I've also found intermittent fasting to be helpful, at least to me. But then, I am currently not maintaining and working to lose a few lbs. With a 10+ hrs a day desk job; exercise has to be about 6000 - 10,000 steps a day...so nothing much.-1 -
I am 5 ft 7
CW 149
LW 143
GW 140 this time...
I lift heavy 4 days a week, run 3x a week and walk the rest of those days.
I eat 1800 a day to lose.0 -
HW 150
CW 145
LW 114 (ED - age 18)
GW 135
Gym 3-4x/week: lifting (alternating b/w upper/lower body each workout) then interval training on treadmill/elliptical/bike for 15-30 mins depending on how I'm feeling
Currently at 1600 (+ exercise cals - sometimes my burn is 400-500+ (fitbit) so ignoring that would be pretty bad)0 -
Current weight 166, Goal
Weight 160 (maybe). I like my curves so as I lose weight I keep an eye on where I'm losing it and make adjustments0 -
Sw 180
cw159
gw 135
hw 180
It was a long winter! I'm comfortable at 140 but 135 is good. My lowest weight was 115 but that wasn't good. I'm very curvy and just started exercising again. I'm doing aqua aerobics and love it!0 -
SW/HW: 172
CW: 154.6
GW: 145
LW:140
I eat 1600 plus most what I get from my Fitbit/workouts so most days it's closer to 2k
I'm a size 2-6 in most brands and I'm actually fairly happy with where I am.
But I'd like to cut 10# for racing
ETA: forgot to add my workouts!
Walk almost daily, cycle 2-3 times a week, lift 3 times a week, yoga almost daily. At some point I'll be able to run again... And I'll be hiking at random this summer & fall0 -
My highest weight was 188.
When I started using MFP in March, I was 180 - am now 162(ish). GW is 125 but I might increase that depending on my muscle tone
1200 kcal/day, weight training 3x week!0 -

I notice many ladies have posted their goal weight is in the 140-130 range. I don't mean to get personal, but how does that "look" on you? I ask because, even with 5x a week weight training and cardio, I tend to get boney when I lose weight. Do you feel you are able to maintain muscle?0 -
HW: 250
CW: 160
GW: 150 but may adjust this goal when I get there
I eat around 1300-1500 a day, lift around 4x/week at home and cardio 2x/week

@cherub14 , I got to 140 and probably won't ever go that low again since I was looking a bit gaunt.
I wasn't really lifting as much then.
I'm honestly happy if I just get down a few more pounds.
With the muscle I have, I won't ever be able to healthily get below 140, maybe not even 145, without sacrificing my muscle.0 -
I'm 5'7"
SW/HW: 210
CW: 162
GW: 154 (At the moment, I might change to 147 once I have reached this; I have 161 still in MFP so I suppose I should update that)
LW: Now (unless you count my v first time trying to lose weight but I would've been about 2/3" shorter..... 135)
Calorie Intake: MFP advises 1200/day so I now use my FitBit/exercise calories, but not usually all of them, I try to stay below 15000 -

HW: 181
CW: 170
GW: Right now, 160. And then I'd love to at least get to 150. I will re-evaluate as I go along.
Right now I am running/Couch to 5K 3 x week, with walks, yard work mixed in.
My eating is set around 1450 calories per day. If I exercise, I eat more.0 -

Hw/sw 167
Lw 107 (eating disorder)
I'm mostly focused on getting healthy gw doesn't matter much for me. Since I've had an eating disorder I'm more worried about losing too much or getting obsessive.
Similar goals, add me!0 -

CW - 148
HW - 150

GW - 138
I run 2x/wk. I do group cardio 2-3x/wk. I recently got a Misfit Flash, so I've been walking at lunch (usually 1-2 miles). My intake is 1250, and I usually try to stay right around there (eating back exercise). But I'm admittedly lenient with myself about little cheats here and there...which probably explains why I've been in a plateau for months :-)0 -

I exercise almost every day. I play tennis, walk, bike, swim, and lift weights and take classes at the gym. I'm eating 1220 cals a day but eat back my exercise cals. I usually end up eating around 1500 a day.0 -
I am 5'7. I started at 194lb last year, and have now reached goal weight of 140lb. I don't want to lose any more weight as I am trying to build muscle and don't want any more loose skin. I am 51 and do heavy work plus I lift weights. I maintain on about 2000 a day. I am aiming to be muscular and strong, not thin. I have been a vegetarian for 30 years.0

My original goal weight was 140. I worked cardio everyday and ate next to nothing. I did not see definition or toned muscles and I was weak all the time. This plan lasted 3mos.
Started lifting heavy weights 3x week and swapped the cardio to HIIT 2x week about 5years ago. I went from 143lbs and a size 10 w/29% body fat to 150lbs, size 6-8 and 20% body fat. I currently eat an avg. of 2000kcal daily.0 -
