    I'm 28, pear-shaped and currently at 148. The goal I had set for myself was 135 but I recently talked to my doctor and she "encouraged" me to not go below 140 for a reasonably maintainable weight. So now I plan on 140 and then will just tone, tone, tone it up :)

    Before my babies I was comfy at 155...started at 194 5/2/11, finally down to 179. Looking forward to 160 sometime in August and then 150-155 before my 30th in September!

    134 Just because I think 100 lbs lost sounds like a good goal. My hubby thinks I should be going for 150.

    Hi girls !! I am 5.6 and I started out at 205lbs and now i am 155. I thought 160 would be great but I feel a little more needs to come off. So I am now going for 130!!

    My ultimate goal is 135 lbs. My first thought was 160 but I decided I wanted to lose a bit more than that. I've got awhile until I reach my goal but I'll get there! (:

    I AGREE :0)
    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.

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

    It looks like you are doing a great job. Keep up the good work.

    I'm 5'5.5" :)
    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.

    Ditto everything you said. :smile:

    Im 5'5.5 and my goal at the moment is 170-175 at this weight i wasn't fat nor really skinny. I was happy with myself even though it is still at the wrong end of what i should weigh i am told i should weigh 145 but as my fiance says i would look like an anorexic linebacker because i am broad shouldered and big boned. If i can reach my goal weight i night try to continue to 150 but it depends on my comfort

    Mine is 120. I'm 170 now, and I was 140 when I graduated high school and wanted to be smaller. I'm somewhere between 5'5 and 5'6.

    Minimum weight is 150. Ultimate is 135..maybe even 130. Depends where I feel comfortable. What's your goal?

    Exactly what you said. I'm going to add you as a friend due to we have similar starting weights and goals, you will probably be a really good motivator for me. Thanks! :smile:

    At 147 now. I'd like to hit 120, but I will make a final assessment on that goal (and if I want to go that far) once I hit 130.

    When I was 155 I was a size 6 and kept getting told by my friends that I was too skinny. No one believed my weight. I actually had to step on a scale for my best friend. Everyone thought I was at least 20lbs lighter including my doctor when I had a physical. I would be happy near that size again but be a little more toned.

    I'm 5'6.5" (5'7" if I puff my hair:), currently weigh 147, my goal is set at 135, but I'm really concentrating more on my body fat%. Right now I am at 26% and I'd like to get below 20% so I can actually see my muscles that I am working on so hard! Whatever weight I am at when I get to 18% body fat will be fine with me :) I've always liked muscle definition better than ribs and collar bones.

    I'm a little afraid of going too far not being able to maintain only to gain it all back PLUS. I've seen this happen to too many people.

    My goal was 150, but now that I'm there I'm wondering if I can do 145?

    My original goal weight is 150, my vanity goal weight 143. Odd number I know, but I done this happy weight test from self magazine (online) and that sounded like a good weight for me.

    I started at 195, currently down to 161, I'm 5'7", and my goal is 140-145. It's been a wild ride and I wouldn't go back for anything! Keep it up girls, we can do it!

    I started at 165, after having 2 babies. I am currently 148 and my goal is 140, but if I can get there I would really like to strive for 135. I can't go any lower than that without looking really sickly thin. So somewhere between 135 and 140 would make me happy.
