Funny that when I was reading all the other posts, I thought, man, I just want to get to 160 (I started at 313 and currently am at 239). Maybe when I get to 160, I'll want more but right now to attain 160 to me would be awesome! I'm 5'6".0

I started at 207 and I am currently 159. My goal is to get to 153 but I'd really like to be between 140-147. If I get to 153 and I look great after weight lifting, I am staying there.

For ALL of my life I couldn't gain weight for anything in the world--I tried and tried and even went to several doctors to help me gain weight with no luck at all and I was 111-114 pounds and miserable and hated being stick skinny (in those days, stick skinny wasn't looked upon as fabulous--stick skinny back then was a unhealthy and unattractive as fat is today).
Then after I started having children (later in life), I started gaining and gaining and gaining. I NEVER want to be stick skinny EVER again in life--So, I'm aiming at 130 pounds...I think I will look fabulous at that weight!0 -

I'm 5'7 and I started at 175. I am 169 right now.. I would like to get down to 145. That was my weight before I had my children...0

I am 5'6 with larger frame and I started at my highest of 206. I'm currently at 175 and my goal is 130-135. I wonder all the time what size clothes I will be able to shop for when I get there. My best guess is 6 because I have no curves or booty. I haven't been that size since before my first son 13 years ago at 19 years old. It will be AMAZING!0

I'm 5'6. I was 188 last March, hit 139 today. My original goal was 140, but as I got closer I thought I'd like to lose 10 more to get 130 pounds. However, right now I feel great and would rather focus on building strength and endurance, so if I lose a little more fat, gain a little more muscle and stay at 140 I'd be fine with that too. Right now, since I hit my original weight goal, instead of tracking weight, my goal is to be fit enough to complete Tough Mudder this fall.
Edit: I never ever remember bring in the 130s before. I'm pretty sure I weighed more than that when I graduated high school, and I know for sure, 2 years after high school I was 150+ up until this January. So it's been at LEAST 15 years, probably more like 18 or 20 since I've been this weight. It's a great feeling, I hope you all achieve your goals!0 -
My goal is 135. In my profile pic, that is my before & after from before I got fat from having a baby. I was actually at about 145 in my after pic, but I was also carrying around about 8 pounds worth of extra boobs that have since been surgically reduced. So I figure 135 will get me back to where I was in that pic:happy: .0

I'm currently at 135.5 and my original goal was 120 (what I weighed a little over a year ago). I started at 138. At 135.5 I'm starting to look more toned and in shape than where I was at 120 when I rarely exercised. I think I'm abandoning my goal weight all together and I'd just like to fit back into my "skinny pants" and go down in inches. That scale is really messing with my head!0

5'6- Originally I started at 235 lbs. that was 2 years ago. for the past year I've been trying to hit my goal of 150 lbs - I'm stuck between 178lb - 183lb, and I just dont move. I do not, however, excersice, which I know is huge... so I can't blame my body for wanting to stay at that weight!!0
-
I started at 171, I have a large frame so I'm aiming for 140-145 with lots of toning. I've dieted before so many times in hopes to achieve 150, and haven't gotten there yet, so we'll see. I have to stay motivated...0

I am 5'7 1/2 and weigh in at 176. My goal is to be around 145. I did Body for Life (Bill Phillips) about 10 years ago and lifted alot of weights. It was amazing the transformations. I got down to around 138 and my husband thought I was too thin (actually I think he didnt like it since I had lost alot of weight in my boobs! LOL!). Anyway, I am trying to get back on the weights and was just curious what you are doing?0
-
Wow you look great! What kind of weight lifting program did you do?0
-
I'm 5'6.5'' and right now I'm at 121. I'd say I have a large frame. It works for me, although I need to tone up.0
-
I'm aiming for about 170! I agree, I always feel the odd one out as people my height are aiming for goals much lower then mine. I know that I felt the best at about 170. I have wide hips and ribs and a stocky frame so below 160 makes me look sick. heh0
-
Ideally, 130, but I'll be happy with 140.0
-
i'm currently 233. my goal is 125 - 130. i have a pretty athletic frame. more important to me than number is size. i want to be back in a 6. so if i can get into a 6 at 140, then i am cool with that.0
-
I am currently 128 and would like to be around 125. I was 117 before I had a baby, but I was thin with not so much muscle, and I've been lifting weights a lot more so I'm hoping that I will put on some muscle and be a little more toned than just skinny.0
-
I'm 5'6" I want to be 135-140 and am presently 149.6. Add me if you like, always looking for friends with similar goals!!
ME TOO!!!!! It has been the toughest for me so far, I just can't get past the 146lbs!!!!0 -

-
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!
Me too!!!!!

I think that if i lost 30lbs I'd be one hot chica! lol! I currently weigh 180! so 150 would look really good on me! ;-)0

I'm 157 now and would like to get down to 145.0

I started at 217Lbs July of last year. Currently I am sitting at 158 Lbs.. I would be happy at 145-150 but really I feel good now. I still trying but I dont kill myself anymore. I maintain all the time and lose a LB here and there.. I started out on Micheal Thurmond's 6 week body makeover and have lost 57Lbs.. Very happy with that..0

I have a very small frame (wrists are 13cm!!!) and started at around 11 stone (155-8 i think) and would like to go down to just below 9st (126lbs) and maintain at around there - AND/OR i'd like to have more muscle and thus being 9 1/2(133) stone would be fine if it was muscle weight
I'm at 9st 5 or 6lbs (131lbs-132lbs) depending on the day so settling here for a bit until my collarbone is healed then shall commence.
126 is my goal, or 133 with muscle :glasses:0 -
Im 5'6 and these are my stats
sw = 240
cw = 164
gw = 1400 -
I want to have a 30" waist. I have read that to reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and colon cancer to their optimal level, a woman's waist should not exceed 50% of her height. So, at 5'6" that translates to a 30" waist.
At my largest my waist was 48"; it is currently around 37" after a 75 lb weight loss. I have no idea how many pounds I would have to lose to achieve a 30" waist, or if it's even an achievable goal for me since I have a 'boy' shape, ie, no defined waist.
I'm currently wearing size 13 jeans, down from a size 4X, so I'm pretty excited about where I am, and very hopeful that I can lose some more of this fat hanging around my torso.
If you're interested in photos, feel free to look at mine.0
