    135. Will reassess once there but I definitely won't go below 125.
  • Mine is 120, but also toned so maybe 125 once I add on some muscle.

    Mine is 135. It also depends on large or small your bones are at this height. I am very large boned so I don't think I will be going below 125.

    I'm 5'4" and was 165 when I started, I'm currently at 138 and my goal is 125-ish. The 'healthy' range for our height is something like 107-147, I figure 125-ish is a good goal for me b/c it's right in the middle of that range and I don't think I'm a small or large frame, I think I'm somewhere in the middle. I was 115 when I met my husband and 130 the day we got married, I figure 125-ish should be a decent spot for me to shoot for. I'll re-evaluate as I go, though. Right now my weightloss has slowed a bit and I'm focusing on exercise/endurance/strength more than just pounds lost. (sorry if the 'ish'-es are annoying, just acknowledging that there are natural fluctuations. :-) )

    I'm currently around 145-150lbs (been fluctuating a lot this week with water retention/PMS).

    I've been maintaining this weight for over a year now and have recently decided to try and drop another 10lbs or so.

    New goal weight is 135-140lbs. We'll see though. I have a medium frame and I don't want to look too thin - so we'll see how I look when I get there.

    My profile pic is me at 145lbs.

    150 from then on I want to go into maintenance and continue lifting weights.... And I don't mean Barbie weights! See where that takes me. Won't rely on the scale but then on body fat %!!

    My goal weight is 120 since I have a small frame, but I want to be toned so it might change from that.

    I'm 5 ft. 4 1/2 in. and I have a small frame. My goal weight is 130 lbs. but I will have to see. Once I get close, my goal may have to be adjusted a few pounds either way.

    My goal weight has been 127lb but as I get closer to it I think I'll try for 121lb. I'll see how I feel & look at 127 :)

    145 is my ultimate goal weight and was how much I was when I was playing rugby and in competitive dance all the time. I would be pretty happy with 150 until then though. :)

    I was 142 before my daughter but with good muscle definition and I had trouble losing weight. Now I've seen 134some and decided I wanted to go 120-125. People say I look small but I feel huge lol so im shooting for 125the now.

    I kno im not exactly 5'4 but thought i'd be cheeky seen as its an inch shorter :-p im 5'3 and my goal is between 9stone and 9st 7lbs, think thats 126lbs. My lowest was 8.12 and my mum said i looked ill so like i say, no less than 9 i think.

    I will be happy with any number in the 120s as long as I have some muscle and it's not just flab hanging off bones!

    I'm about 5'6", but my first goal weight is 105 because I have a small frame (I'm at about 109 right now).
  • 100-105 depending on how much muscle, I'm 110 right now but still flabby. I have a really small frame/history of issues with food. I look big at 125 because I can't really carry it well, if that makes sense.

    My ultimate goal weight is between 108-110 lb.
    I weighed that for years and felt great.

    I'm new to being 5'4" tall. Apparently I've shrunk 1 3/4" in the last 4 years. I weighed 115# all through high school when I was on a swim team. After I had my first baby I wasn't able to get above 105# unless I was pregnant. I had my 6th child when I was 30 and finally started putting on some weight. My thyroid shut down so that had something to do with it. Over the last 10 years since my world crumbled I put on 65#. I now weigh 192#.

    My goal because I have very small bones is somewhere between 125# and 135#. When I get close to the 145-150# mark, I may reevaluate depending on how I feel and how I look in clothes.
  • i'm 5'4 and have a goal weight of 140lbs or 10stone. Having been at goal a few years ago after 147lbs people kept asking when i was stopping and that i was starting to look ill.
  • 135 is as low as I'm willing to go, I think.

    I'm 5' 4.5" and I currently weigh 117 but I am very small-boned. I'd be happy at my current weight as long as my BF percentage gets to a point where I might see some more ab definition. Currently, they are still buried. So that's my goal. Abs!

    I'm 5'4" and my goal weight is 121. This is based on the Devine formula.

    I'm 5ft4 3/4". My goal weight is between 125 & 128. I weighed that before kids, was fit and looked healthy. I preceive myself to be very much a medium build. Definetly not small framed, but not really big either. I have been hovering around 140 for the last 6 months & now that my latest babe is going to be 1 in 2 weeks, I am ready to kick it into gear & get back there!
  • What is your goal weight if you are 5'4

    Mine would be 118-120


    Mine would be 118-120 too, however I want to keep my hour glass shape; just trim my waist and tone trouble areas so I'll be ok with 125

    I'm 5'4", medium or small frame, I guess. Right now I've set my initial goal for 145, which is just within the acceptable weight range according to BMI.

    But, I think I'm going to have to re-evaluate from there. Right now I think I might end up around 125-130, but, I'm gonna see how I feel once I get closer. I haven't been at a normal weight in my adulthood so I really don't know what I'll look like or feel liek at these weights. :D

    I'm 5'5 and my goal weight is 150lbs. I've recently discovered I have a large frame which is annoying... When I get to 150lbs and I still visibly look overweight, I'll will lose more. 150lbs puts me in the 'normal' category, this is why its my goal for now.

    My goal would be at least 150. Anything else looks sickly, in my opinion.
