I'm 5'7", currently 182 (have lost 5 lbs so far), and my goal is 145lbs. Since I have a perky butt, that puts me in a size 8 (others a 6). I'd be happy at 145lbs since that was my wedding weight 4 years ago. Since then I've also had a kid.0

Currently aiming for 153 since this is where I was when I did WW pre-babies. Ideally I'm focusing on Body fat % and want to get to like 18% and see how I feel. I have a lot to go still, but it's not a race and I will get there. Fit by 40 (I'm going to be 35). So by the time I'm 40 I really want to be in the best shape of my life and I don't mean just hitting my goal weight, but low body fat %, more muscles, lifting heavy, etc.0

I'm 5'7 and currently @ 209 aiming for 155-165. I have a medium large frame and would not look well smaller than that0
-
Mine is 140. I started at 231, currently at 179.5. I plan on being lean and muscular and muscle weighs more than fat so 140 is reasonable.0

I'm 28 and 5'7.
Currently 154, hoping to get down to 130 (or thereabouts...i'm gonna stop when i look 'right' as i'm not sure if 130 is too little for my build... we shall see i hope!). SW was 162.
Anyone have similar stats or goals?0 -
when your bones are sticking out that is just UGLY sorry ladies but it is!!!!!
Wow, I agree with the above person, grow up.
Skinny legs was me in a size 3 at 5'7 at ~90 pounds in high school. My waist is actually smaller (I have a jacket that matches the dress on over it). I ate allot, and won food eating contests, and definitely did not have an eating disorder, though there were many rumors. Mom wouldn't let me buy the style clothes I loved because it 'made you look sickly thin'. I couldn't gain weight to save my life and I was always quite offended people like you existed in the world. It's just as bad saying similar things the other way around. It does not help anything. It got to the point I went to my doctor about it and he told me I actually had large bones and was skinny (which made me feel worse). But, then he said I was healthy and not to worry about it though I felt I looked sickly (pale red head did not help).
That being said that doesn't mean that it's alright for everyone to be that weight or try to get there. Food is yum, eat.0 -
Also
CW: 130
GW: 120 by the end of this semester-ish, which point I'll have more time and my back will hopefully be good enough for me to work out my abs of steal So finally I'll probably be about the weight I am now, but hotter, and more cardiovascular, and able to throw punches for all the picked on skinny minis out there
And since everyones been sharing and in case I can find some more like me...I have a small upper body (but with some boobs) and carry all my weight from my hips and below (despite what the picture above shows haha). I'd like my final waist to be about 25 inches. So I'll probably be a size 8 'cause my butt's huge, and that's what I was in before...stupid pants, always hanging off in the back...
For an idea, I want to be around this again (I was 120 here):

I'm 5'6 and I started almost a year ago at 188. My original goal was 140, but I'm 143 right now and the pounds are still coming off quickly. (Actually the last 10 pounds came off more quickly than the previous ones due to changing up my exercise program, and being very strict about proper nutrition in the last month and a half I believe.) So once I hit my original goal I'll aim to get to 130, but probably at a much slower pace since I'm going to switch my focus more to strength building and improving endurance and less on what the scale says.0

I'm 5' 7" (medium build) and I'd love to get down to 135. My sw on 1/2/12 was 176 and cw is 161.0

This pic cracked me up!!! I'm 5'7. Starting was 230. Current is 220. Goal is around 150. Like a previous poster, I've been heavy for as long as I can remember, so I have no clue what I'll look like when I get there. But I feel like I have a decent sized frame so I don't want to get too thin. As much as I'd love to fit under the bars like you did, my "birthing hips" as my mom calls them will NOT ever allow me to do that. :laugh:0 -
Maybe 1300

I'm 5'7 and I weigh 170 right now and would love to weigh 125-1300

I'm 5'7!
SW: 193
CW: 183
GW: 145
I was 140-145 from the age of 14- bounced back within a couple weeks after my first pregnancy, and never lost the weight with my second pregnancy at 28. That range was where I felt my best. Get me to 135 and under, and I just look scary thin.
I don't understand how some women (judging from this thread) can be at 140-145 and 5'7 and fit into such tiny jeans? At that weight, I always wore an 8/9.0 -

I'd say it has most everything to do with body fat % and body composition... Right now I'm 128, small frame 5'7" yet my waist and hip measurements are around 28 & 38.5 respectively... so, unfortunately for me (or fortunately, if you're a man who likes *kitten*) I don't even get to fit into jeans smaller than stretchy 6's... That's right, 128, 5'7" and barely fit into a 6 (more comfortable in an 8 probably) BECAUSE of my body fat %... I'm around 27% or so.
Fortunately, with weight training... this can change So... I'm aiming for a size 4 again in less than six months of weight training. And I'll probably end up around 125 or so... which doesn't look too skinny for my frame, small frame.0 -
I'm 5'61/2 and currently 74kgs (163lbs). I'd love to make it to a strong, toned looking 65kgs (143lbs)!!!0

My first goal is 170. From there I will be working to get down to 160-155. I'm more of a in between medium/large frame. Im halfway to my first goal so Im thinking I want my body to stabilize at the 170 mark and maintain it for a couple months and then hit the accelerator to get to 155-160 ha.0

I'm 5'6. CW is 143, and I'm aiming for 130, but depending on how I look/feel, anywhere in the 125-135 range might be ok. I'm hoping to lose a few pounds, but mostly I want to tone up. I'm starting a heavy lifting program in March, and as long as my body fat percentage goes down, then I'll be happy with whatever weight that leaves me at.0

I'm 5'6 1/2" My goal is 140. When I make that I will be down a total of 83 lbs. Since I started back on August 1st I've lost 29lbs...0
