Hey!! So I came across a forum that had this for ladies that were between 5'3" and 5'4" but I'm really curious to know what are some of the weight goals for ladies my height. I get everyone has different a body but I need some perspective!

    I'm 5'9.25". 60 y.o. It seems I'm small framed after years of thinking I was large..... :/
    Right now I'm at 143 but my goal is 135 to 140.
    35.5 - 28.5 - 37.5 if that helps. I've discovered I'm banana-shaped. :/

    150 is goal. Maybe 145, the probably maintain at 150, I tend to bounce back over goal when switching to maintenance.

    5'8", 42 yrs old
    My highest weight was 154 about 3 years ago. I lost about 10/15 lbs and have been maintaining fairly easily ever since. 138/140 lbs is where I have been for over two years now and where I feel my best.

    I'm 5'9.5 (ish..) And My first goal is 160. Then I will see from there. I have wide hips, I would like to be a size 9pants, us size but I have a large build according to (http://www.diet-blog.com/12/true-frame-size.php) 6.75 Inches. Based on only that, I'm aiming for in the middle... 160. And I will see how I feel.

    5'8 been at goal of 160 for 18 months

    You can't judge your weight by others ...frame, genetics, musculature all play a part in scale weight

    Agreed, I am 160 now, my goal is 145-150 and I am 5'8. In my profile picture I was around 152

    Twin.

    I am 48, around 135-140lb, 35-29-37.5 and lean. Nothing wrong with being built sleek, Lynzdee18. Your measurements are fantastic for your weight, your bones must be in good shape.

    5'9" and I'm happy at 175, but aiming to get (slowly) down to 165 now. I will note that I have significant scoliosis and my "natural height" would be 6'1" without it.

    I measure 38"-30"-38" and have a large frame.

    5'9 and I'd like to get down around 150 then decide whether to lose more or just maintain.

    I'm 5'8 my weight goal is 140. My frame is a little bigger so any smaller than that doesn't look good.

    I'm just barely 5'8 at the moment my goal is 160 with an eye to 140. I'll decide when I get closer

    5'8" and my goal is 150. According to the charts I should weigh 130 but I just don't think I can make that happen!

    5'9" and my goal is 168 right now, but only because it's the top of the "normal" category for bmi. I've been above that since high school so I'm not sure how much more than that I'll want to lose, I'm thinking 140-150 will be my ultimate goal.

    5'8, medium frame. Muscular. At 150 my friends compared me to a crack addict. I just think they were jealous.

    CW: 173, I'm currently a size 8 pants and medium top.
    GW: 140

    I'm 5'8, current weight 147lbs, goal weight is 143lbs. My goal weight seems like a far off dream, i seem to be stuck at 147-150lbs, and i'm starting to make peace with that as I'm not prepared to eat less than i am at the moment.

    I'm 5'9" and 150. In college I was 135 and I anyways thought I wanted to be that weight again, but I think I'm pretty happy at 150 right now.

    5'9", small frame and currently 140, aiming to get <130, though the last 10 is going to take its time.

    That's not true at all...throw away whatever chart you are looking at ...130 is extremely light for that height ...your population healthy range is 125 to 165

    I agree, 130lbs on a 5'8 frame is hovering into underweight territory.. I was around 130 when i was living a very unhealthy lifestyle. I cringe when i look back at photo's of myself at that weight, wasn't a good look on me at all.
