Ladies who are 5,2 what's your starting weight and goal weight. I'v finally have chosen a goal weight freaking finally. My goal weight is 160 but i always add on 5lbs to my goal weight every time so 160 165 the lowest i will ever go in my life is 150 155 so i basically have 2 goal weights for life my starting weight is 298 almost 300lbs i can barley do anything i feel bad that i let myself get this big but I'm ready to change it and i just want to be normal their is a huge difference between being just overweight and morbidly obese i never want to be obese again i also no longer have that have to be thin 115 120 mindset thank goodness. I never want to go below 150 in my life and i never want to go above 165 in my life... also ladies tell me why that's your goal weight and why you want to change... oh and this if my goal weight for life not changing it or I'll be changing it for life and that ain't cute..

    5'2" current weight is 150.2# My first official weigh-in was 313#. My original goal weight is/was 140# which would make me still overweight (and I'd still likely get the "lose weight" script from my GP). I don't remember ever being a "normal" or "healthy" weight, so I'm going with a little bit higher than what BMI says is "healthy" for my height. As of now, my upper weight, where I will get back to eating less, is 160#.

    I decided to lose weight mostly because I didn't have much choice in clothing. Finding anything 5X is hard enough. You can't quibble over clothes only coming in khaki or blue.

    I am 5'3 and my goal weight is 145. I was at my lowest of 153 after my pregnancy. I was so close to my goal. Then I started school 2 years ago and my hard work went down the drain! But I'm back at it again and will support you in your goal!!!

    I'm 5'2". SW 190, CW 145 GW 133. Basically, I was 173 when I started mfp and I just decided to lose 20 lbs which put me at 153. But those first ten came off so easily, I decided to try for an additional 20. I'm now at 12 lbs to goal and about to change my goal to .5 lbs per week loss. I figured I'd be happy at 150 and I was/am but I know I can comfortably lose a little more without too much effort. Good luck with your journey!

    I am starting at 224 and my goal is 160. Any lower and I would look like a skeleton. I weighed 170 when starting dating my hubby and I wore a size 8 and looked thin but healthy. It has taken me 7 years to put this weight on so am hoping it doesn't take that long to get it off. For the first time in my life tho I am looking at this as a life change and not a diet. Good luck on your journey!

    I'm 5'2.5" (the half inch is important, lol).

    SW 212
    CW 148
    GW 138

    Technically my goal weight is 138, which I picked only because it's the top end of being in a healthy BMI. I've never been below 135 as an adult and when I was that weight I had trouble maintaining it. However, I also knew nothing about "maintenance" back then and didn't count calories so I think I wasn't eating enough, which is explains a lot. I may change my settings to lose a 1/2 pound per week once I hit 138 and then possibly lose another 10 pounds. I'm in no hurry to lose the weight, I'd rather eat more food and get there slowly.

    Hi! I'm 5'3 and 27 years old. I started at 224 and currently sit about 163-165 (depending on what time of day I weigh). It took me several years to lose the weight and I'd like to lose another 15-20ish. I exercise 5-6 days a week and follow a FLEXIBLE dieting approach. I do not follow a strict diet because they do not last (for me anyways). I eat a lot because I like food and I'll never change that lol. I believe in moderation and balance. I count macros as well as my calories. Anyone feel free to add me! My diary is open to friends and I'm happy to encourage anyone along the way :D

    5'2 22yo
    Start weight: 262
    Current Weight: 186
    Goal Weight: TBD

    Took me a year and a half to lose 75lbs, I don't really have a goal at the moment since I'm still quite a way from being in the "normal" weight range. I've been obese for a long time, but I've been overweight since I was 5. Was over 200lbs by the time I was 14.

    Honestly I just want to look different. I'm kind of curious to see what I really look like underneath it.

    Hi
    I am 5ft 3
    At current weight of 82kgs
    I want to be 65kgs
    I think being smaller is harder as people see a small person and they think you look fine. Most of my friends think I don't need to lose any more weight but I can see where it has to come off.
    I think the extra 2 and a half stone will make the difference.
    As at the moment my feet hurt during exercise and I still feel heavy.
    Good luck Hun. X

    I'm 5'2". Started at 170, currently 160, goal is somewhere between 120-130. When I hit 130 I'll reevaluate. From college into pre-baby-adulthood I was normally between 130-135. Got pregnant around 140, then gained 45 lbs and was never able to lose the 'baby weight.' The lowest I've been since her birth (5 years ago!) is 154, so it would be delightful to just break that! Hopefully I'll be near there in a month or so, but my weight has been steady for a couple of weeks thanks to holidays and a lack of self-control while traveling.

    I'm 5'1. maybe 2. if i stand REAL straight and stretch my neck LOL

    i started at 260 and am 188 now. I break everything into smaller goals, so right now my next goal is 150, and after that 130. From there I will re-evaluate how i look and feel, and decide if i want to lose a little more or begin recomp.

    I'm 5'2"!

    GW 100-103

    I've been working in South Korea for the past year and living alone in a new and strange environment made me put on 10 pounds seemingly overnight. It wouldn't have been a problem for me if it weren't for the fact that I'm living in a country with strict beauty standards and a strong emphasis on cosmetic maintenance. This was especially apparent in my workplace where I was constantly pestered about my weight gain. I only have two months left on my work contract but I'm determined to lose the last few before I leave!

    I am 5' 9" and I started at 277 I am current at 239 and I want to get out of the two but I agree with previous post to just focus on small goals so I want to get out of the thirties and I will reevaluate myself and my goals regularly I think I should stop when I feel comfortable with my self not when I reach a number

    Hey. Im 5'2 and my real starting weight was 215 but i started on mfp at 212. My current weight is 198 (ish). It feels awesome to be out of the 200s club. I work out 4 days a week and consume 10-20% of those burnt calories back. My goal weight is 145, but i will reevaluate once I reach 170. I am 26 years old.

    Add me! We can do this. :)

    Right now, I'm about 170. :-( I had gotten down to 158 or so. I don't know what the heck happened! Grrr! I'm 5'2.5". I was at 125 in my early 20s, but I was fat at that weight. Literally. Lots of belly fat and fat in the bum and thighs. But now I'm focused on building muscle and not just cardio. I'm also focused not on the weight but the fat percentage. I'm aiming for about 25% body fat. I'm at about 40% now! Yikes!
