My goal wait entirely depends on how I feel and look when I get down to around 140ish. I've never been skinny, so I don't know how I'll look, but I'll know. If I feel I have more weight to lose, I will. And when I get around 130 I'll be completely fine, especially since that means losing over 100lbs. I know it'll take time, but I've already lost 11, so I've only got 99 to go0 -

5'5 I've changed my goals to focus on inches/size vs. weight- since I've never "looked my weight" so to speak.
SW: 225 - Size 16
CW: 175 - Size 10
GW: 155 - I'm guessing size 6/8 - Planning to lose three more inches around my mid-section, and try to maintain my hips as I go.0 -
I'm 5'5.6"
SW: 183 - Size 14/16
CW: 127 - Size 4/6
All goals now revolve around inches and not pounds.

I will see how I feel when I hit this current goal weight. I feel good where I am right now and honestly would be fine maintaining. I do not have a small frame and even in high school when I was at peak fitness I was 135-140 and in a size 6 jeans. I am almost down to a size 6 now but my body composition is completely different so we'll see. It's really fascinating to see the wide range of goal weights here!0 -

I want to be healthy. I am struggling with a sugar addiction and an I don't want to attitude. Another words I dont want to change anything I am doing but the weight to just come off. I realize this is unrealistic thinking. I currently as of today just want to pray and ask God to help me overcome the sugar addiction, and anytime I am craving to motivate me to either get into His word, Or get moving, or drink water. Really want Him to help me so I can give Him all the Glory as to Him changing me from the inside out. My heart is just wanting to be so disobedient and eat what I want. I have done this whole fitness pal thing before. I start and I stop and I start and I stop. I have seen some real encouraging things though. I would love to be faithful enough in my keeping track that I log in for 180 days straight. I would really like to get this extra weight off. Just to feel better. I have continued the walking and exercise, that is a positive.0 -

CW: 165 and a size 8
GW: 145-150 and a size ?
Most important I want to preserve my lean mass. Right now that's 117 pounds of me.
So if I could get down to a solid 145-150 I think that's a good goal.

I'm 25 years old, 5'5"

GW: 128
I had hit 129 a while back and felt amazing...however, when I look back I realize I was substituting so many meals for smoothies and was only happy if I were falling asleep with a growling tummy. I am much happier now, even if the scale isn't 128. I am not just working on leaning out and eating as clean as possible. If I hit that GW, awesome. If not, it's all goodGood luck on your journey! Always remember, it's not a diet, it's a lifestyle change.

I'm a guy; however, my awesome wife is 5' 5.5" and weighs 123 currently. Her goal weight is 118-120 because she's had four kids and wants to lose the extra tummy skin. She's already in great shape... she's just trying to tone and lose that little flappage0

SW 175 30% fat with 112 lbs of lean body mass
CW 170
GW 22% fat which will probably bring me to around 135-140 lbs.
It's cool to see such ranges. I know girls my height who are easily 115 lbs. I am 112 lbs of lean body mass (organs, bones, muscles etc...) so I could never, ever be 115 lbs (I'd be dead) And at the same body fat percentage as a girl who is my height and 115 lbs, I am actually more like 135 lbs!
It's an important note for us women who have a lot of natural muscle mass & enjoy weight lifting.0 -
same boat Leslie. I was 160-165 at my fighting weight and am like 30-31% fat at 176. and at 5'4.0

I had a stressful year and it lead to very bad eating habits. I gained over 15 lbs. I look and feel better under 130lbs. But the main goal is getting back to working out 3-4 times a week. I just started using my fitness pal and love all the tracking and accountability.

I have a smaller frame, so 115 looks better on me. I was 115 before I got pregnant with my 4th child. It has been harder to lose weight this time around. I think my hormones changed when I hit 30.0 -

I set my goal weight at 125 because I was this weight consistently for 15 years. Any more I feel blah,,any less I look a little sickly.0
