  • I'm 5'3 and currently at 217. My goal is 160 and then I will see from there how much further I should go. I am large build with a heavy upper and big booty, so I will probably ultimately stay around 140.

    110-112, where I have been most comfortable my whole life. 115 if it is all muscle

    I am 5'4", I am currently at 253 and my goal weight is 140. But I will have a better idea once I start losing the weight.

    i'm 5'4" and am currently at 190. Like many who have already posted, I have a medium build and am top heavy. I've been athletic all of my life, so am plagued or blessed (take your pick) by being heavier than I look. My goal weight is 155.

    That's my goal too. I'm 5'6" and want to weigh 135. I'm at 164 now. Where are you and what is your goal as to time, if any?
  • I"m 5'3" and my goal is around 130. I will adjust it once I get there and see what I think!

    Great question! It was so good to read all the responses too! I am 5'5", but solid. What I am "supposed to be" and what looks healthy on me is totally different. I have a big frame and get boney at 190...except for the legs and butt. My optimal goal is 175.

    I'm 5'3 1/2 as of my doctor's appointment yesterday. I have a T-frame, so big shoulders and chest and small hips, booty and legs. I tend to carry all my weight from my belly up. At my appointment yesterday (after my BMI analysis) the doc said I should shoot for 115-125. I actually have two goals set for myself. First is to get to 150 which is what I was when I got married 9 years ago. That will put me in a size 5/7. My second goal is to get to 125-130 where I hope to be able to maintain :)

    I'm 5'5 I started off at 147 ( the most I've been) and now I'm at 126. Which was goal but I'm not that happy hoping I can go down to 120. Does anyone think 118 as 5'5 would look? :S

    I'm 5'5" and have weighed as little as 117 in my adult life. I have a small frame and it looked really good on me. My current goal is 119, but I wouldn't mind 117 again. Message me, and I can send you pics of what I looked like at that weight.

    5'4" and my goal is 115-120.
  • 5'4 I'm 230lbs right now my first goal is 150lbs but my perfect weight would be 115lbs.
  • 5-3 and a half ...lol I do like the .5 when i type it in the BMI Calculator .. Well I weight 192 and I am 41. I would like to lose 40 lbs and run a 10K in the summer. My goal is to not huff and puff when I climb stairs (the eleven steps to my office) every day, or my thighs not to rub when I run. Most of you know what I am talking about how your shorts gather between your thighs and bunches up, I don't like that...lol .. :tongue:

    I'm 5' 4 1/4" (the 1/4 is very important ;-). I'm shooting for 147 which is what I weighed for most of my life. I'm in a 10/12 at that weight and I can maintain it without making myself crazy. Plus at that weight I am strong and fit.

    I am 5'5 and my goal is 150 I use to weigh 157 and I use to think I looked fat but I realize I was tripping. Please add me I need more motivational friend on mfp. I lost 4 lbs so far. this is my second week
  • Hey-o! I am 5'5" (and 1/2, on a good day) and started around 150. I think 135 is a good weight for my frame, where I'll look good while still being healthy, and reasonable to maintain without a 7-day/week crazy workout schedule. I'm aiming a little high (low?) in the hopes that I'll be around 130 at my wedding in August, but plan to try and maintain 135ish after the big day.

    5'3 i want to be around 130
  • Hi. I'm 5'5", 41, and i just started MFP, too. I'm a Slooooooooow runner. I STILL huff and puff, but it does get better. I started running when I turned 39 and have done 3 half marathons. Seems like I can get the exercise thing down or the diet thing- but not both! I found Hal Higdon.com to be really helpful for training. I'm 164 and would like to be 150.?.

    I'm 5'6 and my initial goal is 180. I'm 302 now. I would love to lose 40 there after and gain back 25 lbs in muscle through definition and toning.
  • i'm 5'4, currently 151lbs and I wear my weight well between 130-135lbs. Anything lower than 130lbs doesn't look good on me and my body really fights to get back to the 130's.

    I'm 5'5 and, I'm at 245 and hoping to get back to where I was at around 140 to 145 then I'll be happy. I'm so bad at excersing so today I just started to doing the Kinect Adventures for about 45 minutes,figured I'll work my way upto more strenous things but it really took a lot out of me!! Any motivational people would be a real blessing I am so bad at sticking with dieting and excersing!!
  • I'm 5'4 and would be happy to get to 140! I really would like to be at 130 but am thinking since I'm older now that might not be realistic.
  • I'm 5'4"...My ultimate goal is around 120. Right now, I'm aiming to get down to 150

    I am 21 years old, 5'5", and my goal weight is 145. Once I get to that point I may lower it to 135.
