    I'm 5'2" 113 lbs. I'm comfortable at this weight but I still want to lose a little more body fat. I don't care about scale weight at this point.

    I'm 5'2" and currently 114.4. My goal is 110 which is usually a great weight for me. I've gotten more into weights lately so I might be happy a few pounds up from that if I'm toned and muscular. I love feeling strong and seeing definition. I swear my clothes fit just the same now as they did when I was 110 and not using weights/resistance.

    Hi! I'm 5'2.5" and maintaining at 118ish. When I started I weighed 160 and set 125 as my goal as that's a BMI of 22.5 - mid-healthy range; I'm quite small-boned. Got there and the weight was still coming off even though I eat a lot (I took up running about halfway through my weight loss). Even now my body shape is still changing, my weight hovers between 116 and 120 but my waist and stomach are definitely still reducing.
    It's a really individual thing - I thought I would be ecstatic to get to 125 but when I got to that point I still needed to tone (and could still work on my tummy but I'm too lazy, I just like to run!).
    Good luck!

    Hi,

    I'm just under 5'2, and am currently 128, with a goal of 123. For me, its about being comfortable in, and out of clothing-on the beach-wherever! The last five lbs have been the hardest to loose. MFP has me at 1,200 calories to achieve 123 lbs-this so far has been quite the challenge. Good luck to all of us!

    Well done just to let you know mfp won't go below 1200 no matter what weight or activity level you put in that's as low as the calories go i guess it's so people don't develop eating disorders in not sure but just thought I'd give a heads up so that might be why it hasn't been as easy to lose

    I'm 5'1.75" & around 160# (-18# this year so far). I'm going for 125ish. I'm 35.
    My main goal is to run long distance while putting less stress on my joints. I used to run a marathon each year and several other races all the time. Injuries, depression, anxiety & pain almost got me to give up running completely.
    I decided to rebuild slowly with long walks, lots of yoga, fitness blender workouts, any kind of workout available, short runs, then longer. I've run a 5k and a trail 10k race.
    I plan to add swimming in the summer & patiently, persistently get to running longer distances until I get there. It will be kinder on my body if I'm ~120- 125ish #.
    I also want to have kids in the next year or two, hopefully. I sadly have not been so blessed with successful pregnancy.

    I'm 5'2"
    when I was 18 I weighed 10 and a half stones, but was playing rugby and was very trim
    now I'm *whispers...somewhere in my late forties...cough* and weigh 9 and a half, and have a little muffin top I didn't have back then, so want to shift a half stone and see how it looks.
    Body composition makes a huge difference, and at a certain point it's a good idea to use the mirror instead of the scale to decide where you want to be.

    That 1/2 stone will make all the difference, I know it did for me - I'm same height and average 8st 12 -9st 1 (125/127lbs), also late 40s - the muffin top and tummy were the last to go :/ (not completely satisfied but even though I've been in maintenance for years I'm still a work in progress :smiley: )
