That's entirely dependent on how overweight someone is to begin with.0

I'm 5'2 & weigh 113 now.
I still have a few spots that bug me, a little belly pudge & my thighs still rub a little more than I'd prefer. (They always will as I have an athletic build, I'd just like to not wear out my jeans so quickly...) I am losing very slowly, but consistently at a pound a month. I also do mostly resistance training. (I usually only do cardio to help off-set dinner & beers with friends.) Since I am getting married in September I am going to keep trucking until then. If I continue to lose at this rate I should be about 110. But afterwards I will probably switch to maintenance. Or try to anyway... it will be a new process of trial & error.0 -
61.5 inches. My goal weight bottoms out at 125. Fantasies of dropping to 118, but those are improbable. Worried more about body fat percentage than weight or bmi.0

I'm 5'3 & my goal for now is 135. I might keep going after that but for now, 135. That's what I was before I got pregnant with my first child & I was happy with it. I wasn't super skinny, but the way that I'm built, I was happy with that number. I'm also more top heavy than most. :-)0

I'm 164lbs now...I have a long way to go, but my ultimate goal weight is 125lbs. So far I've lost 16lbs, but I'm not seeing it - yet!0

I am 5'1" and at 120. My current goal weight is 110. I was down there last October and was pretty happy with the way I was starting to look. Then went back up to 125 (eek)...really struggling to lose now though. I will reassess at 110 but my ultimate goal weight was 105.0

5'2 here, my SW was 180 im currently 162 and trying to get to 140, a little far from my GW which is 1250
-
I'm 5'2" also. I started at 180 and I'm now at 158. I'm aiming for 120. Don't think I could ever get as low as 113! My boobs are half my body weight!0

Yes i see what you mean. My body fat is around 20 so i just want to get it a bit lower.
I'm sure you can achieve your goals if you go slowly xx0 -

135 is a good target i think its good to set a small goal then see how you feel when you reach it. i also stop and maintain the weight for a bit to see how i feel , then start again if i want to lose a bit more. xx0 -

I have done that a couple of times. i feel like because we are small we put weight on quicker. As if i eat wha'ts recommended to maintain weight i can actually put it on.
110 sounds like a nice weight. Good luck xxx0 -

Thanks! Yeah sometimes I feel like 110 is kind of low. But, supposedly I have abs under here somewhere... or so they say. I would love to try to put on some muscle, but I'm a little hesitant to eat at or above maintenance in order to do it until after the wedding. Like you said, if I'm not careful I will gain, even around maintenance. And I just don't have the time to workout consistently enough to keep that in check right now.
The struggle is real at all sizes.0 -
I'm 5'2 and my goal weight right now is 130 - starting weight was 224.8, currently at 210. In my younger days, I was happy around 118, but I'm going to go to 130 and then see how I feel.0

I'm almost 5'3". I started at 209lbs and am now at 159lbs, so 50 pounds lost.
My goal for now is 125lbs. But I'm more aiming for a goal body/body fat % than a goal weight. I have no idea where I'll really end up because I don't care about scale weight. I care about being healthy, my fitness, and how I look a lot more than what the number on the scale reads.
Exhibit A (this is not me):

I'm 5'2 as well my goal is 1100
-
I'd like to get under 130, and maintain somewhere between 125 and there.0
