5 ft 5 - what is your goal weight?

i'm 5'5" and im looking to get down to 135, although I've never actually seen my body at this height and weight

I'm about 5'6'', and I was that weight in high school. I'm a classic pear so I'm very thing on top, even at the weight I am now. I looked almost anorexic at that weight. I say don't worry about the number on the scale because your body type will come into play at some point. Personally I'm aiming for 140. (The extra 3/4 of an inch may require that for me.)

Between 127 and 130

my i will accept it goal is 130
and my i will be happy goal is 120-125

Well imgoing by my bmi ( I'm a little under 5'5) so my healthy bmi weight is 145. ATM i weigh 185 and I have a ways to go. I'm more of a stockier build , when I work out I tend to get more muscular oppose to thin ( my mom and sisters ate the same way). Ideally I'd like to see myself at 135. I have set a few goals.

Per week - minimum of 1lb less than previous week
1st goal- 179lbs for my sisters wedding this march
2nd goal - 159lbs for a cousins wedding in July
3rd goal- 145lbs to reach a healthy BMI
4th goal - 135lbs for my college graduation

I'm a little over 5'5", and I've been through the entire range of "ideal weight". I prefer MY body at just under 140, but that's just me. Set a realistic goal and see if you like your body when you reach it. You can always change your goal weight.

I'm 5'5 1/2 Currently 200.2 and I'm shooting for 150. Once I get there I'll decide if i want to go lower. But I've always had wide hips and a muscular build so I think 150 will be fine. I've seen pics of myself when i was around 130 and i looked entirely too thin and sickly. Everybody is different.

I agree! Everyone is different. So many people get caught up in the numbers instead of what looks and feels good on them. From your pic I think 150 would be fine, I'm the same height as you, and I've always struggled to gain weight (fast metabolism), so now that I'm 120, I think an extra 15lbs would be great, any more and I think it would look weird on my small frame. Even with the same height, different weights would look best on different body types. Thanks for highlighting this!

My goal weight is 125 and i'm 5'4" and i am giving myself until i go on holiday in middle of June to get to goal!

I have my goal set between 140-145, I have a bigger build, and my doctor said that is a perfect weight for me, any smaller I will look sickly. My low when I was a freshman in college was 140 and I am happy at that weight. I am at 155 now.

You have a similar build to me, so I am shooting for the higher end also.

My goal is between 115-120lbs. I have a very small frame, I wear a size 3 1/2 ring lol.
