    I'm about 5'6 1/2 and my goal weight is 145 and I've maintained that weight before. I looked great and felt great at that weight. I have a medium/large build. Seems like like this is realistic as most of us at this height on this thread have a similar weight goal! :)

    Im 5"7 and that sounds very realistic to me.
    I havent weighed myself in a couple of months, but i was at 134 lbs..
    My goal is about 110.. i know it seems low, but when i started my weight loss journey this was my weight, and i was flabby..
    Now i realise i dont need to be smaller than that, i just need to be toned..
    But i need to get back to that weight first before i turn my focus primarily to toning lol.

    Hey

    I think your goal is 100% realistic. I am 5'7 started with mfp August 24, 2011 at 156... by Dec 10th, I was 139.8. My overall goal is about 130lbs... with muscle definition...

    You can do it!

    5'7" here and I have been fluctuating between 130 and 140. I am right now stuck at 140. I'd like to get to 134, which was my premarital weight. I definitely want to tone up, more than lose weight. So even I am 140, as long as I see more beef on me, I am happy. Also, I am small framed but curvy. So, I do have the option of going down to 130, but I'll stick to 134! :o)

    Hi all! Also 5'7" with my weight currenly hovering around 190.

    My first goal is 150 and then perhaps 130ish (which was my weight when I first met my husband).

    Feel free to add me! :)

    Hi everyone! I justed started MFP last week and my starting weight was 159. I am 5' 7" and my goal is 135 -140, so I think your goal is very realistic. Over the holidays I put on 5 pds and now its time to take it off and more. I am 48 and have noticed I have to work a little harder to lose a pound coupled with thyroid probs. Best wishes everyone in meeting your goals!

    DANG. I'm 5'7" but did I start out as the biggest here?? I started at 210...I'm currently 164 and my goal is 150 for now because that's nicely inside my healthy weight range. I say 'for now' because since i've been bigger most of my life, it might be a struggle for me to stay in the 150s. I don't want maintenance to be something i'm always stressed about. but i guess i'll see when i get there!

    Oh! And I feel great at this weight! But that's partly due to my fiance, lol. But, I think I will feel even better when I get lower :)

    I am 5'7". I started at 252, with an initial goal of 180. I had no concept of what a healthy weight for me was, as I h Ave been very heavy for 20 years. When I got under 200, I changed my goal to 170, but now I can see that it should be much lower, so aiming for 150. I am sure I will change it again. I think your goal is realistic.
    Check out this site, another MFPmember posted the other day:

    Most definitely attainable! I'm 5'8 and weigh 132 - started at 140ish and wasn't sure I could lose any weight. Once I started using MPF I found myself eating healthier, watching calories, and exercising regularly. Then the results followed. Good luck!

    Word^ :o)

    It definitely helps when you have friends on MFP that have goals similar to yours!

    I started at 158, I'm now at 144.5 at the mo, but would like to be between 135-140. Having said that, I'm a size smaller jean than I was last time I weighed this much, thanks to Jillian Michaels, lol. So quite happy presently being a UK size 10 jean and UK size 12-14 top!
