  • I'm 5'7" and i weigh 220. I was at 236 and lost the 16 lbs before I joined MFP. My long tem goal is 160, I'll be thrilled when I see 180 since that's where I was before I had 2 kids :)
  • I want to get to 160- 165. I am happy there. I am 5'7 and weigh way too much. I had lost a lot ofweight in 2010 but then hurt my back. I gained all my weight back and then some. Anyway, i am getting back in the groove.

    I'm 5"7 and at my heaviest weight of 170! Goal is to get down to 133lbs by summer time! x
  • I was 242 lbs and lost 20 lbs at the beginiing of last year before I got a new job and found it difficult to work out around my new schedule. But to answer your question I am also 5'7 and my goal weight is 260-270 lbs. I have no desire to be a skinny minny or size 2. I just want to be healthier and fit.

    My goal weight is 150 pounds which would put me in a size 8-10. I'm perfectly content with that.

    I started at 175 pounds and size 14 (US). My initial goal weight was 145. I am currently 147 and a size 6/8 and I am pretty happy at this size. Click on my profile for my full body picture- that is me at my current weight. I have a side by side photo of me at 175 and 150 that I could probably dig up if anyone is interested.

    I'm around 5'7 and my goal weight is 130, which I haven't seen since high school!! I've lost almost 40lbs since getting serious about losing weight last August, and I'm currently at 149.2.
    I'm hoping to get down to a size 5/6.

    I am 5'7". My top weight was 215. I started MFP at 203. Goal was 140. I have been maintaining between 141 and 136 since august. I would like to lose about 5 lb more of FAT. Hoping continued workouts will do the trick. It took 18 months to go from 203 to 140, slow and steady wins the race!!!!!!!!

    I started at 220.5 and am now 201.7.
    My goal is 140, but I'd be happy with 150 tbh.

    very interested... please post xxx
  • Hey,
    My goal weight is between 160-150. Im currently at 185 and lost 60lbs over the last four months I've been told by my fitness instructor that i may look too scorny at 160 but i wanna get there and see how i feel and what sizes I fit into. Would love to be a 10-12 (UK sizes). It's important to also think about your fat mass and stay within the healthy region. Feel free to add me...

    I'm 5'7 and I'm aiming for 155-160lbs. I started at 230 and I'm now down to 176.

    My aim is simply to get to a BMI of normal.
  • I'd love to be between 150-175 mostly because I want to KEEP my curves. I have an hourglass shaped body, and I've been smaller than 150 before and I lose my curves.
  • My goal weight is 149 (so I can say I am in the 140's!)....as I get older I have found that I cannot maintain 135 like I use to....so it may depend on your age......I am almost 43 yrs old.....I have about 15 lbs to go. Put on about 15 lbs over the past year when I injured my hip, so getting it off has been a challenge!! Good luck to you and if you need some supportive friends...add me!!! I have been overweight most of my life and understand your struggles....I wish you all the best!!!

    I started 11/11/11 at 237. My goal right now is 160. I think I will be about a US 10 at that weight. We will see.

    I weigh in and take measurments every 6 week . At last WI I was 205 and had lost 21 1/2 inches.

    Nice to see lots of fellow 5' 7"er!

    I'm 5'7 at 247 right now, my goal weight is 150. I don't remember being this weight but it sounds good to me and charts online say for 5'7 normal weight is 125-150.
