  • I'm 18 and 147
    I started out at 177 and my goal would probably be around 125ish.

    I started at 281, and am shooting for 175. I know I won't seem skinny to most at that point, but to myself and those who know me I will be in much better shape!

    I am 5'6". I started at 176lbs. Currently I am at 157lbs. My goal is 140 - 145 and a size 8 dress. I do not want to lose all my curves.
  • I was 145 at 5'6'', but was mountain biking 3+ hours, 3 - 5 days a week to maintain that. So, 145 - 155 is my goal weight.

    Hey girls! What weight do you want to be at 5'6? And if you already lost your weight can you post pictures? :)

    I am 146 in my profile pic! I have an athletic build, so I think I want to keep working out and maybe go to 140-- I don't want to lose everything on top if you know what I mean!!

    I'm 5'7" and have gone from 155 to 136 lbs. Originally I wanted to hit 135 and see what made sense from there. My waist and hips are still bigger than I'd like, so I'm trying to go down another 5 lbs or so, but mostly I want my body fat % to drop and gain muscle.

    I'm aiming for 138# but anywhere between 138 & 143 is fine!

    I always feel like the odd one out on posts like this...my goal is 160(or in the 160s..) I'm currently at 169(down from 235!) :)
    I have a larger frame, and I just don't see the need for myself to reach anything lower...I want to live, and enjoy eating still! :)

    I am almost 5'5" and my goal is in the 160s..... Feeling like I want to be much bigger than the other people here.

    My ideal body type is something like Kim Kardashian, Beyonce or Jennifer Hudson with more definition in my arms and legs (I have tendencies to gain muscle, especially in my arms and legs, so I might as well deal with it instead of hoping for skinny thighs or whatever.)
  • Two years ago I was my heaviest at just over 180. Now I'm around 155. My ideal weight is anywhere in the 125-130 range, which is what I weighed at age 20 and that was a very healthy weight for me!

    Good luck fellow 5'6"ers!

  • I'm 5'6, currently 145? (was 143 then went back to 147 last week don't know my current weight until tomorrow's weigh in) and i would like to be 125. but i want to add on quite a bit of muscle so it will probably be more than that but i am just going to go by my measurements and how I look and feel. I'm currently wearing size 9 jeans that are loose!!! and hoping to get back in size 3

    I started at 172 and am currently at 154. I was originally aiming for 145 but I'm not sure I'll get there - we'll see how things go. I started New Rules of Lifting for Women 2 weeks ago and the scale hasn't moved much (but I haven't been logging as well as I should either). Currently, I wear a size 8 jeans and am close to a size 6 and a Medium in shirts. I love to eat and drink and am aiming for something that I can maintain and still have the lifestyle I want to have (in moderation of course).

    My ultimate goal weight is 140. I'm at 148 right now. I wear a medium top and size 6/8 pants. :)
  • I'm 5'6 and my goal weight is 150-160 and that puts me at a size 9 in jeans :) I like my curves so I wanna keep it curvy but fit.

    I am 5'6'', I currently weigh 179 (Start at 245 in April 2011). I want to be 145/150, but am willing to adjust my goal the closer I get.
    I am currently in a 11 pant/Large shirt. Have a gut from carrying full term twins!

    You llok awesome at 169! I agree I don't think you need to be any lower. I started at 280 and I want to get into onderland then see where it leads. CW 247. :smile:

    I'm 5'6. My highest weight was 140 and my current weight is 119. I hope to get down to 105.

    I'd love to be between 125-130. Currently 135 :)

    I'm aiming to be 120. I know some people say that is low, but it makes sense for my body. I carry all my weight in my lower stomach, hips and thighs but have a very small waist and a very tiny chest. I go between 126 and 130 right now.
  • I'm 5'7 and want to go down to 145!I'm at 179 now started at 194!Good luck..:)

    I am 5'5" and would like to be 130 lbs.
  • 145...I am fairly muscular and I think that would be a safe bet-have quite a ways to go and reckon I will reevaluate as I get closer :P
  • I'm still a work in progress at 138, but I hope to be anywhere between 125 and 130! But if I have alot of muscle and I weigh a little more than that, I'll still be happy :-)

    I currently weigh 203 and that's my smallest adult weight so I really have no clue what I should be aiming for. Whatever I put on my ticker for a finish line was just a guess...I just hope I know when I get wherever I'm supposed to be.

    At 5'7", I would like to land somewhere between 140 and 150. :happy:
  • I'm just a quarter of an inch under 5'6", and I'm aiming for 120lbs.

    I want to be around 130. I was 133 but its really hard to stay there. I seem to stick around 135 better.

    I really don't go by the charts (most of them are really unrealistic, anyway!) When I'm at 150, I feel good and look good. I have alot of muscle so of course muscle is gonna weigh more. But I feel, for me anywhere between 150-160, would suit me!
