    My goal is 130 lbs, but my ultimate goal is developing a six-pack! From what I've seen on here, it can be done!! :bigsmile:

    I will be comfortable @ 160. Anything lower is a bonus.

    Goal is 115-120. For our height, it is recommended not to go below 115 lbs.

    Since my starting weight was so high and I am 48 years old my goal weight for right now is 150 lbs. I figure by the time I get there, I will be in pretty good shape too. I can re-evaluate my goal at this time depending on how I feel and how I look. I am 210 lbs right now and have quite a ways to go just to get to 150 lbs so I think that is reasonable for me right now.

    Hi there I am 5'6.5 the half inch counts!! lol. I started out weighing 199 in January I am not 174 and my goal for the time being is to get to 160 in the next couple months but my long term goal is to weigh 130lbs :)

    OK I guess will be the chubby here. I have 276lbs and realize that at 170 I am in a size 10 jean. I want to hit 165 and then I will re evaluate and possibly go for 135.

    I was surprised that 150 was at the high end for my height.
    Currently I have it set at 140.
    I would love 130 or below.

    Hello there, we are almost in the same boat. I am 210.5, and my ultimate weight goal for now is 160...

    Being 5'6" and big boned, 150 lbs. is best for me. I have been down to 135 lbs. and really looked anorexic with big collar bones jutting out. and no boobs to speak of. lol Of course, if I was a model that would''t be a problem but I think it looks gross. I was 150 lbs. when I got married 22 years ago and that was the best weight for me. Hope I can make it there!

    Im 5'5'' and would be absolutely ecstatic with 150! I know its still considered large for my height, but oh well, I havent been that small in like 10 years and last time I was that small I was very very happy!

    My ultimate goal is 140 lbs.

    I'm 5'5.5, and I used to weigh 140 (quite some time ago now haha) and I would love to get back to that weight.

    I have a ways to go still though.

    My goal is 135 but I dont know if my body can get there...I am 145 right now (size 6 easily) and have been for MONTHS. I may get a stomach bug every now and then and see 143 but I mostly fight to stay at 145..I dont know what to do.

    Mine is 140. However, I can't ever remember being under 150 so I'm not sure what 140 looks like on me. When I get there, I may need to adjust.

    In the best shape of my life (high school) I was 140 pounds. I was an athlete, though. I think that I will be a lot happier with myself at 160 pounds, but I would love to be in the 140's.

    Right now it's 132.....if i ever get there & think I could still lose a few more, I might go lower.

    I'm keeping myself between 125-130 but it's been tough...

    My main goal starting out was to get a 6 pack (or as many packs as a healthy woman can get). Since I've gotten back into weight lifting 4 days a week and Interval training 2 days a week with a high protein diet, I could care less about what I weigh as long as I'm healthy and strong!

    ULTIMATE is 110... but right now it's 115 :) If I can't get to 110, I'm totally more than happy with 115! I just like setting high goals so I push myself hard during my workouts , even if I never get to 110.

    I'm 5' 6.5" and my goal is 133 lbs. That was my end of high school/beginning of college weight. I've gotten below it before and it just was impossible for me to maintain. Plus if I get too far below it, my boobs disappear! Gotta keep those curves goin!

    5'6" and currently 162 pounds. My short term goal is 160 (SO CLOSE), but I'm really unsure of my long-term goal. Anything below 160 is uncharted territory for me so I have no idea how I'll look or feel at 150, or 140, or 130. Websites and my Wiifit tell me I should weigh about 138, so I guess I'll aim for that...eventually.

    I'm 5'6", medium frame. I was a very fit 127 in high school (MANY years ago), matured to 135 in college and around 140-145 before I had kids. I'm aiming for 150 at first, mainly because it will get me into the healthy BMI range. If I can get back to 140-145 eventually, I'd be delighted.

    I was looking for a topic like this yesterday, so I'm glad you made it =)

    I have no idea what my goal weight is-- right now I have it set to 120-- but I want to be a size 6. I'm a pretty extreme pear shape, so at my highest weight of 157ish, I was a 12-14, and now at 136 I'm still a 10. Will dropping the next sixteen pounds put me anywhere below an 8? I don't know, but it's worth a shot.

    On the other hand, I haven't lost anything from my chest (probably because there's nothing there)!
