    I'm 5'4 medium build
    125ish (up a few down a few) which is pretty much my goal I wouldn't mind losing a couple more but no lower than 120. This is a comfortable weight for me I'm lean and healthy with plenty of curves.
    I typically wear a size 4 sometimes a 2 depending on the brand
    I am 40 years old
    4 children 16 yrs, 14 yrs. both natural births 4 1/2 and almost 3 yr. old via c-section

    I'm 5'5" but with short legs (I usually have to buy petite for pants length)

    - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large) - I'd call myself medium
    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? 125lbs / size 4
    - what is your goal weight and why? My original goal weight was 125 but I was at 117-118 this summer and was very happy there. I moved in August and a few pounds crept back on, so I'm trying to get down and have set a new goal of 115.
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing) -33
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) ) - yep, I have 2, an almost-9-year-old and a 6-year-old

    128lbs 28inch waist 34 inch hips (annoying) so about UK 10.
    - what is yor goal weight and why?
    110lbs, my minimum adult weight was 103lbs but I felt too fragile and finding clothes that fit
    was a pain in the a** so a little more for luck :)
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing)
    28
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) )

    I am 5'5, can I chime in too???
    I would consider myself a medium build.
    I weight about 152 and wear a size 10 or 12.
    My goal weight is 135-140 because my doc told me losing 10-15 pounds would be great.
    I am 35.
    I have two children (however they are adopted, so do not affect my body as far as pregnancy goes).

    I am 5' almost 4" :) I consider myself 5'4, my husband tells me otherwise...

    I have a medium/athletic build - and I am pear shaped - definitely carry most of my weight in my hips/butt/thighs

    I currently weight 143 and wear a size 6 or 8 pants ( I am fairly muscular so I weigh more than I look like I do )

    My goal weight is 130-133 as I feel best around that weight

    I will be 53 in a couple of weeks

    I had a c-section with my first child 24 years ago

    I'll answer my own questions too :)
    - I am medium build
    - I am 153 and in size 12 pants
    - right now my goal weight is 140 mainly because I have no clue last time I was below 150 (my pre-babies weight) and its considered a healthy weight whereas I am considered overweight currently
    - I am 30
    - I have had 2 kids, both by c section, so have the below the belly button pooch and clothes that fit me at this weight pre kids don't fit me or don't fit the same, kids have defintely changed my body, especially in the hips/belly area

    (and anyone that wants to add me as a friend, feel free to :) )

    I'm 5,3 so a little under. I have small upper body (UK size 8) but larger lower body (10-12). I am 23 years old, no kids. My goal weight is 118-120lbs, which is what I weighed before going to University and discovering Chinese takeaway!

    - Not sure! I always said large, but I'm thinking that I always just made excuses for my weight. I'm probably a medium, maybe even a small.
    - I am 173 and in a size 10
    - My goal weight is around 130, but I'm trying to focus more on having a healthy body fat percentage.
    - I am 27
    - I have 2 kids.... complications with both that left me on bed rest for at l2/3 with my first and 1/3 with my second!!

    I am 5'4...
    I have a small/medium build
    I currently weight 136 and wear a comfortable 8, tight 6.
    Goal weight is hard for me because I keep thinking that I need to be at my pre baby, pre drug rehab size... which was 102 lbs and a 0 (sometimes zeros were big) My body image is messed up from that time but I have to remember that I was definitely NOT healthy then and was extremely addicted to prescription pills. I need to form a new, healthy goal and vision of how I want to look and feel. I believe that about 115-120 would be good. A comfortable size 4.
    I am 25 years old and have a 5 month old son, who was delivered via c-section.

    Medium build, 141-144lbs
    28-29 / 7-8? in pants. I've been at Forever21.
    24 years old, no kids

    I'd like to hover around 130 I think, right now I'm at the higher end of my "healthy BMI" and although I'm comfortable and happy I think that I would be even more happy and healthy with another 10 lbs gone. It would also be my lowest weight ever.:happy: :happy:

    Hey.....that's me!!!

    - I think I'm a small build because I can touch my thumb and pinky finger around my wrist but I'm also very top heavy (38/40 DDD--the last time I got under 150 I went from a D to a DD....go figure)
    - I wear mostly 16s but they are very very loose in my thighs and butt but my stomach is bigger due to my wonderful children who were both 8lbs8oz at birth and I was all belly. Some 14s fit well everywhere but are tight in my tummy
    - It was 150 but I've lowered it to 145 so I'm in a healthy BMI but I have only been around 150 1 x in my 10 year marriage and it was in a very unhealthy way. I'm scared I won't be able to get there even so I'm not even dreaming of more than that!!!
    - I'm 36 and proud of it!!!
    - 2 children....5 1/2 yr old boy and 18 month old girl. Both 8lbs 8oz at birth and with my daughter I was over 54" around. I have the tummy fold over at the bottom and a lot of extra skin in the tummy area!!! but I would do it all again!!!

    To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :)

    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear?
    - what is your goal weight and why?
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing)
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) )

    I am *almost* 5'4"...actually 5'4.5" lol so I normally say 5'5" cause I round up.

    - small frame
    - 148 size 8/10
    - 120, because I have a specific body fat goal which is lower than what it was when I weighed 128, so the weight is actually an arbitrary guess, lol. I want to be 12% BF for figure comps. and 17% otherwise. When I weighed 128, I was at 22%.
    - 32
    - no kids

    I am 42

    Had 2 children within 18 months of each other and both were delivered C-Sect and since then I've had a Hernia Operation and last year had my gall bladder removed ... so stomach is my big problem area

    - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large) I think medium..idk lol
    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? 133lbs and size 8 cause I dont own any smaller sizes. I also have hips and smaller sizes make me muffin top like crazy.
    - what is your goal weight and why? I dont have a goal weight at this point really. I just want to like what i see.
    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing) 31
    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) ) I had a csection and a VBAC. My kids are now 2 and half and 11months. I have a little hang left to remind me of the mom pooch.

    To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :)

    - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large)
    Not sure, I'm guessing medium.

    - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear?
    Before losing any weight, I was 165 and *squeezing* into a pair of size 17 jeans from Target. Now I'm 143 and the 13's I bought several weeks ago are getting loose. :-)

    - what is your goal weight and why?
    My current 'ultimate' goal is 125 - that puts me right smack in the middle of the healthy weight range for 5'4". Plus it may be 10 lbs more than I weighed when I started dating my husband, but it's also 5 lbs less than when I married him. I'm trying to be hopeful but also realistic.

    - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing)
    28, but in 4 days I'll be 29. :-)

    - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can affect your body! ;) )
    I have a son that's about to turn 4 (born the day before my birthday) and another son that's 19 months. My stomach bears witness to how far the pregnancies stretched my body, that's for sure.
