I'm 5 11" and currently weigh 216lbs... I was 180lbs 11 years ago and felt pretty good at this weight but I've gradually put weight on since then (I got married, settled down etc haha). At 180lbs I still felt like a few more pounds down would have been better. So this time around I'm aiming for 155lbs, possibly 145lbs, but I'll decide when I get there. I've still got a bit to go, but I hope to be close to my goal by the end of the year

You're my twin! I am 6'0 and just hit 216, I'm hoping to get down to the 170 range by the time I start grad school in September; I remember being in the 70s and 80s and feeling pretty good about how I felt.

I am 5'10" and my weight goal is 154....currently at 169...getting closer

I am just starting myfitnesspal. I am 6'1". I weigh 220 now. I would say i am medium bone size, not small bones. Most of adult life I weighed 190 and I was a size 14. It was hard for me to go lower and maintain. Do you think I should try to reach lower? What should my ideal weight be?

Gunnerslove77 I didn't see that you replied. I looked at the top of the screen to see messages since I did comment in a few groups but there was no feedback message. I guess I have to look at the discussions to see if anyone answered me. I did a few times in another group but no one replied, which was discouraging. I was so happy to see you replied! It does help to know someone cares enough to reply.

I am 6 ft tall and have a bigger build. I will never be below a size 8 even at my thinnest because my skeleton is just that way.
My HW was 235 and I lost a lot and got to 145 and I looked sickly and and frail at that weight. I got to 165 and was thrilled at that weight.

Over the last 5 years I have gotten back to 204 lbs.
I would love to get back to 175 at least if not 165.

I think a lot depends on how much we exercise while losing weight and maintaining weight. The more sedentary the easier it is to gain. CollieCanDo.... I am 6"1" and was never lower than size 12 as an adult. Size 8 or 10 sounds small unless you are small boned. I am medium boned. So in that way we are all different. TasminEz....165 sounds good. I am finding this hard to do alone. It is 55 days now. Late at night is hard for me.

I'm cutting out sugar eatting more natural foods. and I'm losing around 1lb a week when I'm not being naughty.. I'm around 1400 calories and going to the gym at least once a week..(cross trainer and treadmill) hard to fit it in with 6 kids and a hubby always working. I've now lost 42 lbs and ppl are just noticing

Really interesting to see such variations in goals. I'm 5'10 and have a large frame, I have wide shoulders (similar size to men's shoulders) and am very curvy.

As a teenager (at my adult height) I was between 72-75kg (160-165lb). I do have 75kg as my goal weight, but I'm not sure how I'll feel when I get there. It could be too skinny for me. I'd honestly be happy to be under 80kg (175lb)

CW 100kg/220lb

I'm 6 foot, naturally lanky limbs and no boobage to speak of; I got to my "doctor recommended" weight of ~158 lbs a couple of times (currently gained back some) and I still had quite a lot of belly fat, so my new goal for now is 150. If I find I look good before hitting it, of course I'll stop before then, and vice versa.

My current goal is 200 lbs. I was 265 at my heaviest and my knees ached all the time. My lowest (after being my heaviest) was 192 lbs and my body looked amazing but my body ached all the time (11 miles cycling daily plus running around at work and my physical activity at home). 200 I looked really really good and didn't ache.

5'8" and while I'd love to get back to my college weight, I think there's no way that's possibly anymore. 135-140 is my current goal.

I'm 5'11"and am aiming for 199 at this point. I haven't weighed that since Jr. High. The closest I've gotten was 212 when I turned 40 (I'm 48 now). Lost 100 lbs then and yup - gained it all back. Have lost 50 between January and the end of May - now am stuck in the most hellish plateau. Have been gaining and losing the same 3 lbs for 6 weeks. Anyway - I'd like to see myself under 200 and we'll go from there.

I'm 5'10", 50 years old and about 173 pounds at the moment. I've been on Weight Watchers a few times over the years and my goal weight for WW is 162. I'm trying to be a little kinder to myself as I go through menopause...because losing weight at this time in my life is nearly impossible no matter how much I work at it! I've found that giving up sugar is about the only thing that makes the scale budge significantly - and that's hard for me because sugar is in everything plus I have a major sweet tooth. When I'm at my goal weight, I can wear most of my size 8 (US) pants. I've never had much in the way of curves/hips or butt so that's why I can get into those smaller pants sizes. On top I'll always be a large because of broad shoulders.

About 10 years ago, I got down to 152-154 pounds. While I was satisfied, a co-worker said she thought I was too thin. Not sure if others felt that way or if she was jealous (we were both doing WW at that time). I know I can't maintain anything in the mid-150's anyway. I'm trying to reduce my sugar intake now to get back below 170 and hope to lose more (and keep it off) once I'm finished with menopause.
