    I am 5' 7" and weigh 151lbs. My pre-baby weight was 137lbs so that is my goal.
    P.S. That "baby" is now 6!

    5' 6.5" - goal weight is 135, however, as I am 60, and my face is not looking good at 158 from this weight loss, I may stop sooner. I started trying to lose at 230, with my highest recorded weight at 238.

    5'7", 162 lbs, medium frame, pear shape. 31" waist, 43&1\2" hips.
    Body fat percentage last year was 35. Lost weight to 160 and body fat percentage went down 34.8. Then with some more work and a caloric intake of 2,000+ daily, I gained 2 pounds and body fat percentage dropped to 26.6.
    That's what I call feeding the beast. So weight isn't something I look at, but preferred goal would be 159 lbs and 24 body fat.

    I'm 5'6" and my goal is 140. About 10 years ago (when I was in my 20s), I weighed 145 and, while on the thin side, I was far from skinny. So, that's what I'm aiming for this time around as well.

    I'm 5'7.5 and aiming for 150 currently. When I reach my goal I'll decide if I want to lose any further. I've been looking at calculators and am guessing that I will be happier closer to 140. I'm not sure what a comfortable maintenance range will look like, so any suggestions on that are welcome!

    I am setting my goal for 150, so I can settle
    at 155-160. My goal will be to continue to
    walk 3x week, an hour each exercise. Once I continue at goal for month or two, I will decide
    if I want to go lower in weight.

    5'6" and currently 142. My goal weight is between 130-135. That's the "everything fits and I feel really good" weight for me.

    Hi! I'm 5'6 and 171 pounds. Would really like to see 120 but realistically probably 130. Have gained a ton of weight in the last 6 months since starting CrossFit. Muscle, I guess, but the fat isn't going away. I'm brand new to this my fitness pal forum, and looking for any help I can get. I just posted in the "introduce yourself" feed.

    5'6" and my current weight is 185. My goal is 145. I was a solid 150-155 in high school swimming varsity all year round. Hoping to lose quite a bit of weight but will be satisfied if I'm not as buff as I was back then.

    I am 5'8" and my ideal weight is 165-170...Looking back at high school photos 140-145 was too thin...I'd be happy if I can just get back in the 170 range. Which is almost 200lbs to go...one day at a time. ;)<3

    I'm 5'7" and started at 320, my goal is between 160-180 (I carry my weight evenly). Already lost 73 lbs since August (7 months). I walk, run, and do yoga! No diet, just eat less and move more.

    Just shy of 5'6 and I've been maintaining for two years now at 138-142, around 21% BF. I went down to 130/18% BF and it was too low for my frame. I looked very ill! (Plus hubby likes a little bit of extra junk... ;) )

    5'7" and goal is around 140. I used to be 150 in high school and definitely still carried some purge around my love handles then.

    I'm 5'7", I started at 270lbs and I am now 174lbs. I am looking to get down to around 145lbs, but I will see as I go if I am happy with what I look and feel like! Feel free to add me!

    I'm 5'6" and my goal is 140. I think I will go down to 130 and then keep my maintaining range as 130 to 140.

    I'm 5'6" and my goal is 135, though I would be happy at 145-135. I really want to get to a (US) size 8 or smaller. Right now I am a size 12. Anyone should feel free to add me.

    I'm 5'6" and in high school looked and felt fabulous at around 135 pounds. I started at 205 pounds on December 28, currently at 184 pounds. I am breaking up my goals into smaller ones - First goal is achieved (lose 20 pounds). The next goal will be 170 since this weight represents the smallest I will have been in 5 years. A final goal of around 135-140 is what I'm thinking of at the moment :)

    I'm 5'6.5" and currently at 144-ish, got down from 250's. Been staying at this weight for a bit to long, my ideal goal weight is around 128 but I am trying to get down to 125-126 for fluctuations. I will re-look at it when I get down and see if I need to lose more.

    I'm 5'6" weighing in at 142, body fat is at 29%. Looking to drop body fat down to low twenties put on more muscle and lose more fat so figuring the weight will be about 145. Would love more friend to help me on my journey. Please friend request me!
