    So happy to find some other 5'7s!!! Finally moved under the 150 mark, thinking I wanna be in the low 140s. But with my pear shape, I might need to get into the 130s to get my booty under control. lol

    I'm 5'7'' and looking to get to 124 by 9/17, which is my wedding! I'm currently at 129, but we all know the last few lbs are the hardest!

    I am in the same boat! At the beginning of this year I was in the low 40's (142) and I was very satisfied though I still wanted to be around 135 to allow myself some wiggle room. I have a big rear as well and all my weight seems to go straight to my butt!

    I'm 5'7 and 132 pounds. My goal is to be 125 pounds. I'm super squishy right now so I want to lose the fat and gain muscle.

    Feel free to add me! :o)

    I am 5'7 and my goal is 150! I am hoping to continue with further weight loss, but will be happy with 150. I have a rather large frame, and when I was younger and was 5'7, 130 I honestly looked very sick, so 150 it is!

    5'7" Here as well. Robes, same spot as you. Stepped on the scale and it said 180 and I about fainted. Just started MFP again a couple of weeks ago and I'm down to 172. My goal is 130-135. I would love to be this weight again and I will make it happen.

    Feel free to add me!

    Hello!

    I am 5' 7 3/4" :) and my goal weight is between 125 -130lbs.

    I used to obsess over the number until I got stuck in the 145 area and the inches came off but the scale did not move. Now I am not 100% sure on a number, I think I'll stop when I look the way I like and things fit the way I like.

    I think the highest I want is 130lbs. I am athletic but I am also 30 in September and I am trying to separate from my inner tomboy and try out the hole "feminine" thing. :D

    I'm 5'6.5" is that close enough? =)

    I am currently 146, down from 162. My goal is 135-140, but I started strength training, so I am not sure where the scale will fall. As long as I lose inches, it doesn't matter so much.

    5'7'' and 145.. i've literally been stuck here for about 2 months. i work out for about 1-1.5 hours almost every day, and i've finally come to the realization that my diet is what needs to change... that's the absolute hardest part for me because i LOVE food, and have a mondo sweet tooth... yesterday was my first day of counting calories [im shooting for about 1,200/day] and i want to be in the 130's by the end of this month or the beginning of the next. my ultimate goal is 125, hopefully sometime around the beginning of october. i would love to be in the 120's by my 21st birthday on september 29th, but we'll see. here's to hoping i can make this happen!!

    I'm 5'7'' and my goal is 140-150.....I was 135 at my skinniest and bonier than I'd want to be now (I'm pretty curvy, with big boobs and rather muscley lol) so I think I should be more like 140-150, depending how I feel if/when I get there. Seeing all your goals at my height makes me think maybe I should aim for a bit lower!

    i'm 5'7". Just today got down to 139lbs woooo. Started off at 150/151lbs. At my lowest I was between 124 and 126lbs but I don't wanna go that low again - my top half is quite teeny. When I was around 133lbs I was a UK size 6-8 for tops and size 10 for jeans which suited me well so I think that's my aim. Feel free to add me!

    Yup, 5'7 here too! I'm currently 184 and my goal weight is 140. A lot of work to do but I'm excited to get down to it and get to my goal. Feel free to add me as a friend as it's lovely to have pals with similar goals in mind.

    Have a lovely weekend!

    5' 6.5" here also, I count it as 5' 7' when on a eating healthier plan. :)

    After reading how slender some of you already are, I'm not ready to admit my starting weight yet and unsure of my goal weight. I am aiming to lose over 100, but we'll see how I feel when I get lower. I am DISGUSTED with the person I have become and never in my life imagined I would ever have to lose a ton of weight.

    But, I'm started and even if it takes a year, ready to do it!!!!
