    My goal is one pound a week....until I reach 135lbs...not too little, not too big. As long as the weight loss is steady - even if it's not as much, or as quickly as I would like - I'll be happy. MFP is projecting for me to be at my goal weight by Fall! :)

    I'm 5'6 and 3/4ths almost 5'7. My starting weight was 156.8 and I'm currently 147.4. My goal weight is 136 but once I get there I might reassess to decide if I want to lose more or focus on toning.

    I'm currently 186, started at 193 (post-baby weight). I want to be down to 130. I would be happy with a size 4 or 6 if that meant more numbers on my weight.

    I'm currently 178lb, looking to get back to 148 - 150lb. I was down to that weight two years ago and wore a size 6 - 8. I'm in my 40's now and believe this is a realistic and healthy weight that I can manage for life.

    I am right now at about 176. i really want to get down to about 160, and once i get there maybe down to 150. I have a mid-large frame so i dont know if i will get much lower then that. really i need to work on size. currently im in a size 16 pants, but really want to get down to a 12 or even a 10 would be better.

    I think we have the same body type. Although Id love to get to a 8...With my frame a size 10 would make me happy i am a 12 now...was a very tight 12 a little bit ago but down now....i am 172 lookin to get to 160 too! Good Luck!

    I'm 5'6" and currently 150lbs.
    My goal weight is between 120-125.
    But I'd be happy at 130, since that's when I felt my personal best.

    Hello All,

    I like this thread. I too am 5'6".
    Currently I am 134 (down from 150)--aiming at 125 area.

    I was aiming for 130, but I inherited tiny legs, so all my fat is stored in belly region.
    Apparently, I have to lose about 5 more pounds than most people to start looking fit!

    SW: 178
    CW: 166.5 (woo hoo for half pounds!)
    GW: 150

    I have never been less than 148-150 in my adult life (I am 37 now) so I will see when I get there, as a lot of people. But when I was 150 I was a size 8/10 and I was pretty happy with myself. I have a larger frame, so it is nice on me. I have a feeling that if I went to 130, for ME, I would look quite sickly.

    I'm a smidge short of 5'6" and I'm currently aiming for 154lbs (11st) - at that weight I am generally a UK size 12. I *may* decide to go for 140lbs, but I'm going to hit 154 first.

    Anyway, once I get to 154, it will be more about how I look and less about what the scales tell me =)
