    I'm 5'5", medium build. Its not so much about weight for me, but I'd like to be a size 12 again, and a 10 would be perfect. (pun intended)

    At 5'1", I often feel I'm in danger of being stepped on. I weighed in @ 216lbs today, but back in high school I always dreamed of being 127lbs. I've always been a chubby gal, so getting rid of my front pouch, the thighs that constantly rub holes in my jeans and the love handles would be incredible! I'll never be rid of my boobs or booty. But since everything seems to shirink down altogether, I doubt if I'll ever be able to get my ideal body beyond my weight...

    Still, hope springs eternal, so...

    I'm 5'6" , currently I weight 159. I was down to 150 and felt good- I'm shooting for 145-150. I'd like to be a nice toned size 8. These number should fit right in. If I get my body where it needs to be and I weigh a bit more, I'll be ok with that.

    Some of these 5'6" girls have very low goal weights compared to mine. If I weighed less than 145, I'd look sick. That's WAY too low for my body to be. My D cups may play a part in it. I've lost 60+ pounds and only lost 1 cup size, probably not going to lose much more with the last 10-15.

    I would love to weigh 125. I am 5'4" and weigh 140 right now and can't seem to get past it. I don't have a chest and I have other curves that I have been trying to get rid of since I was 14. Ugh!

    I'm 5' 3.25" and currently weigh 145.5. I would like to weigh around 130. That would set me comfortably within a healthy BMI. Yes, I am a girl and plan to keep some curves. It is definitely in my genes to be curvy. When I reach 140 I want to stop worrying about weight as much and really tone up. I don't care if it takes me another year to lose the last ten pounds.

    I'd love to be 125-130, but my goal is 135. I'm 5'0".
  • I guess I'm just being a little nosy or let's just say I'm interested to know....What's your ideal weight? Please add the height along with it. Do you want to keep some curves? Are you not really concerned about the curves and just want to feel and look good? Do you just want to be skinny?

    If you're not afraid.....please post!!

    As for me, I am currently 5 ft 6 in and weigh roughly 165 lbs. I started at 172-173 and my ideal weight is 150-155....but I don't want to lose curves so I'll see as I progress if that changes.

    I am 5'4 and currently weigh 135lbs. I started at 150 and my ideal weight is 118-125. I'm trying my hardest to keep my curves so for now I'm working on a healthy BMI & Body Fat %, once I reach that then I'm good with whatever weight I am.

    I'm 5'4" and currently around 145lbs. I recently decided I want to lose a little more - so, I'm currently aiming for around 135lbs or so. I don't want to lose my curves and am willing to accept my current weight as my happy weight if I start losing and see the curves disappear.

    I can't imagine myself any thinner than 135lbs - I have a large frame and would look gaunt and unhealthy at anything smaller (heck, I may find that I don't look healthy under what I currently weigh - we shall see).

    6' 1" 42 year old male with a 190 lb target. It's a little over what the charts said but Dr thought it was the right weight for my frame. I was there briefly almost 8 years ago and now I'm aggressively working to get back!

    my ideal weight is 120

    starting weight 235 5'2 is my height

    current weight (according to mfp) is 217, i'm not logging weight in till New Years, when I do my weigh in
  • I'm 5'8" and currently just under 112. I think my ideal weight is 120, but anything from 110 to 130 is probably fine for me.

    33 and just under 6', would like to get back down to 155-160. Even at that weight I won't go under a size 10/11 {HIPS! lol} so it's all good. :smile:

    I'm 5'7 and I started at 204 and am currently 161. I want to be 130 or a shade under depending on how I look. I just want to be toned, tight, and on the thinner side but not skinny. I have HUGE thighs so no matter what, even if I got underweight I'd still have 'em. Although I'm sure by the time I'm 145 my tummy will be perfectly flat. It'd just be nice to be able to wear shorts someday.....:grumble:

    I'm 5'4.5" and my ideal weight is between 135lbs to 145lbs. Right now I'm just shooting for 145lbs, then I'll reevaluate my goals depending on how I look and feel. I started the journey at 205lbs and I'm currently at 175lbs.
  • I'm 5'2 :( I wanna get down to at least 55kgs!
  • I just want abs and a defined back xD Weight ehhhh don't care about as much

    I'm 5ft2 - 5ft3 and 120 pounds currently. I didn't want to go under that :( but in order to get my abs to show through I am thinking I will have to be under 110

    I'm 5'3" and currently weigh 155.7. I want to get down to 145, and stay between 140-150 for the rest of my life.
  • Im 1.68m and I'd like to weigh around 65kg. Its hard for me to get involved in these kinds of discussions cause I'm always back and forth converting measurements. I haven't weighed that in forever - since I was still a teen growing. My lowest out of school was about 66kg and I looked amazing back then.. Well amazing in the 'I didn't lift weight sense but still played a ton of sports'.

    Converted.. I think that makes me 5''6 and 143lb..

    I'm 5'5" tall with a goal of 16% body fat. According to this nifty little handy dandy calculator on Tom Venuto's website, it says that my ideal weight is somewhere in the 115-125 range.

    At my lowest weight of 128, I was still unable to see the muscle definition that I was looking for, so more than likely I will be around 120 or so. My ticker has the goal at 115, but I don't know if I will get there. I just set it low so I wouldn't have to change it later on, lol.

    I want a lean, athletic body with low body fat so you can see the muscles that I am working hard to get. I don't care about "curves" other than those which are natural, not caused by smooth fat deposits. I'm over that.

    33 and just under 6', would like to get back down to 155-160. Even at that weight I won't go under a size 10/11 {HIPS! lol} so it's all good. :smile:

    My mom is also 6' tall and she wears size 10. She actually feels better at size 12, and when she loses more weight to get into an 8, she just looks too skinny.

    A size 10 on her looks like a size 4 on me!
