What is your goal weight? I'm currently 172lbs want to get down to 154bs.
Just curious to see other people's goal weight of the same height?
«134

    Im aiming for 125. I might go heavier. I'm unsure what I would look like with more muscle mass, so if i get really toned i wouldn't mind being 140 and up. Right now I'm 140.

    155 goal, currently in size 12s but starting to fit into 10s again. When I was 155 before, I was still in a size 10. It takes a lot of weight loss for me to move down in sizes.

    Hi there. I am currently 150 lbs and feel pretty good at that weight. Starting a structured weight lifting program in a fortnight though so I am sure this will go up a bit as a result!

    Started 188 3 years ago. size 16
    Heaviest 220 size stretchy pants IDK
    lightest 141 size 4
    (bulked through winter) current weight 153 size 6/4 ish (can barely get away with wearing my size 4 skinny jeans with no muffin top)
    ultimate goal weight 135 size 4 (hope to reach next summer as I will need more muscle to fill out a size 4 at 135)

    depending on lean mass to fat ratio clothing size can be all over the place for people at the same weight and height. Body fat is funny that way.

    I'd like to be in the 130's but with my ice cream and Nestle crunch bar habits, I am at 140-142 (5'8") and I'm fine with that.

    I'm around 5'7 1/2 and my goal weight range is 120 to 124 but I've been currently maintaining under that for like two months accidently so I really should eat more. Anyways my highest weight was 142 and I was like a size four or six there I think? (It really depends on the clothing brand). Now I'm a size two or zero depending on the brand. I only shop at American eagle/old navy/hollister and I'm a size zero there but I feel like maybe their clothes run small? Idk.

    Edit: idk if I worded that correctly. I meant that I'm a size zero in the stores I shop at but at other stores I think I would be a size two.

    Maintaining below 120 at your height is underweight. I'm happy your recognize you should eat more. Please do so with the intent of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

    Yeah I'm trying. It only started happening when my depression and PTSD started getting out of control in December. I'm getting on top of it tho.

    Edit: that's the reason I rejoined mfp this year cause I wasn't eating much but didn't realize it cause I was kinda out of it.

    I'm 5.8 and weigh 145. I hate it and don't feel comfortable until I'm in the low 130s,

    Up until a few months ago, I was 5'8", but found out I'm apparently 5'9", but I started at 175 and am working towards 135-145. I'm currently 150-153lbs. I'm not too set on a particular scale weight, but more on how I look/feel, seeing that I've been getting a slew of "you're too skinny" comments lately.

    Best of luck to you. If you aren't already, please speak to a professional for PTSD no one should have to go through that alone *hugs*
