I'm 5'4", currently 152.8. My goal is to be 130, and this is based on the fact that I've been as heavy as 170ish and as light as 118 and I feel like 130 was a good number for me. I was just wondering if there were any other ladies out there around my height and what your goals are? Any pictures?

And for reference, here are a few pictures of me:

    Yup I am! Started MFP at 173, currently stuck for about 3 months at 152-155 ish. My goal range was 140-150, but after being stuck for so long I would take 149.9! Haha!

    I am 5'3.5". Currently I weigh 186. My goal is to get down to 135. I would LOVE to get down to 125 though. When I met my husband when I was 15 I weighed right around 100 pounds. When we got married (3 years later) I was right at 125 back in 1999.

    I am 5'4". Pre-pregnancy weight 127. Got down to 135 after pregnancy but gained 15 pounds over a long lazy winter due to some medications. Down to 145 now and aiming for 135 again.

    Hey ladies. I am 5"4 but i am 180. I am very top heavy though and i would like to think i don't look that big. My goal is to be about 165-170 which still seems huge but i think that's where my body would be comfortable because i will never get down to 120.......It's a frustrating battle because i have been in the 180s for about a year no matter what i do but i am still pushing along

    I am 5'4''. I never struggled with weight until I was an adult. I am currently 215. I think 130 was a pretty good weight for me, and I hope to get back to that again!

    I'm 19 and 5'4 on a good day. as I say. :)
    I started out a year ago at 156.
    And when I started using MFP a little less than month ago, I weighed myself at 149. And now I'm down to about 143.
    My goal is to be 130 again too.

    I am constantly looking in the mirror and sucking my stomach in, and imagining myself with that body.
    I heard that sucking your stomach in is about 10 lbs. I sure hope it's less as opposed to more, but I can settle with those 10lbs.

    I haven't taken any pictures yet, though I feel like I truly should.

    I'm 5'4" and was at my heaviest of 143 last year, a very uncomfortable weight for me. Currently, I'm down to about 124, but am aiming for 110-115. It's a small number, but I'm not very muscular plus my clothes have always looked and felt best around that size. The problem for me isn't losing, it's maintaining once I get there... good luck to you!

    I am 5' 4" and my goal weight is where you are at right now...150 lbs. I have been over 200 for at least the past 10 years (I just turned 40 last month). I'd lose some here and then gain some back there. I have lost 40 lbs in the past year and want to lose another 25 before the holidays (be under 200). I am saying my ultimate goal is 150 but we'll see when I get there. I've become so much more active in the past 4-5 months with exercise and running. I've started C25K 3 times now this summer, but at least I keep re-starting. I can't wait to get to "One-der land".

    Good luck to you. I hope you meet your goal in the time frame you want.
