    Mine is 140 at the moment. I will decide if I want to lose more when I reach it! Currently 147lbs wanting to have a flatter belly and tone up!

    I guess I'm shooting a bit higher. At 150 w/o being toned I was a size 8, this was comfortable for me, but my goal this time involves more muscle, less fat so I'm not sure exactly where its gonna land me :) (I am 31, mom of 2 boys)

    My goal will be about 120-125, but I'm currently at my lifetime biggest & was only around 105-115 until 3 yrs ago when a bit of weight has crept on. I think it's unrealistic to maintain a weight so low in a healthy way now I'm older so I expect to be about 20-25 pounds lighter than today with keeping my calories down & exercising.

    I'm just under 5'7'' and my goal is 120. Ultimate is 115 since that's where I was before I gained weight.

    Height: 5'6
    SW: 240
    CW: 232
    GW: 160

    Once I get there, though, I'm going to re-evaluate. I want to be more fit than flab, so I'm thinking my ultimate end weight that I try to maintain may end up being closer to 140ish. My smallest was 116, and I was still a (baggy) size 8 and looked like a bug...but I haven't been under 150 since adulthood, so it's going to be trial and error and doctor input past a certain point.

    my goal WAS 150'ish, but i'm honestly thinking nothing smaller than 160- i'm big boned and have VERY large breasts (and they aren't going anywhere- mom had a size F natural cup at 125 lbs)- i won't care what my final weight is, i just want certain rolls to be gone!

    I'm almost 5'6" and am currently at 145...I think I look pretty good right now, but would like to firm up my triceps and abs. My ultimate goal is 135; I have weighed that before, about 15 years ago, but I wasn't as toned as I am now (thank you strength training!) My avatar picture is from 2 weekends ago, so you can see what 145 at 5'6" looks like on me.

    I'll have what she's having....145 looks dang good on 5'6"!

    I'm 5'5.5" and at 163 right now. My goal weight is 130, but I'm not positive that's the perfect weight for me. I definitely wouldn't mind weighing more if I am happy with the way I look. I don't won't to battle "the last 5 pounds" for a year or so - if that last 5 or 10 pounds wants to stick around that bad, then I think maybe it should! I think when I get that close to goal, I'll be more focused on the tone of my muscles, etc. and not the number on the scale.

    I am 5'6' and my goal is 114.6lbs; I was about 121.3lbs last year but now I became 143.3lbs

    Hunny... 114 is not enough for 5'6''. Anything under 119 would be considered underweight :/


    :huh:
    114.6 is actually the lowest weight for our height for a healthy BMI. So as long as the weight is within the healthy range, & the individual eats & exercises well, I see no issue with this goal.
    :smile:

    ...underweight according to who? You can't say someone's weight isn't healthy for them if you don't take into consideration their age, bone structure or body fat percentage.

    I have only one true goal - to not gain the weight back! I'm 5'6" and I've been at 147 for two months now. My dream goal would be to be at 135 and have a 135-139 range to bounce around in. But I won't do anything different that might trigger gaining any weight. So I'm learning to be happy at this weight. I don't think I can eat any less or exercise any more.

    And if I weigh 147 two years from now, instead of having gained the 95 pounds back, I will be one happy woman.

    I'm 170cm (I think nearly 5"6) and 71kg (156lbs) aiming at 63kg (138lbs). I've been doing some strength training so I might even be happy if I don't quite make it as long as I can get the body fat % down.

    I'm 5'6", 285 pounds. My initial goal is to get down to 175. Once I get down there, I will re-assess :)

    I'm at 210 now, and my goal is 150. I just randomly picked that number...I figure I could reassess my goals when I get there. I just want to be out of the obese and overweight categories.

    Started 178lbs, now 172lbs. 1st goal is 150lbs. Then from there, probably 140lbs would be my ultimate goal. and more muscle tone.

    Hey there,
    I am just under 5'6'' & I am currently 64 kilograms (141 pounds) - my aim is to get to 60 kilograms (132 pounds) so I am closer to the middle/lower end of my BMI. I'm also trying to burn off calories lifting heavy weights and for toning.
    Good luck.
