5'6 Girls what weight do you want to be?
Replies
-
I'm 5'6 and my initial goal is 170. I have never been that small in my adult life so I have no reference as to what I will look like at that weight. I started out at 235 and am 24lbs away from 170. Once I'm there I may reevaluate my goals but only time will tell!0
-
I'm 5'5 and started at 193 currently at 177 with an aim of somewhere between 150 - 154. I never went below that in my twenties, and though I could go probably go lower I have a fear of ending up with my 38GGs slumping rather than bobbing :noway:0

I am going for 140, I just want to be in the healthy BMI range, I will reevaluate from there.0
-
Around 125-130. Lower would be amazing, but have to keep it achievable!0
-
I'm 5'6 and currently 185. I'd like to be 145/150....35/40 pounds to go.0

would love to be between 130-135. i'm 137 now, so very close!!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 am diabetic (type 2) and off most of the meds now but want to medicine free which I believe will happen if I can reach 143...help!0

I'm 5'6 and have a smallish frame except for my hips, which are very pear shaped. I am aiming for 100-110 pounds. On the low end of the BMI chart but I'm willing to weigh more if I have muscle and feel small enough. I'm going more by look than weight. 0

Currently 127...goal weight is 120-123. Started at 138.0
-
I'm 5'6 and like most on here, I want to be at around 135.. 0
-

-
Currently at 214 Would like to be around 130-150lbs. 5'6 1/2. I'm not a small build though so 140s would most likely be perfect. But overall Aiming for Healthly over weight. 0 -
Below 163 so I meet the Navy's standards before I go to boot camp, if I am above those standards then I get to get taped and sent to the heavy division or as some people call it, "fat camp" lol0
-
Id be happy with 140-150lbs, I'm 185 now
gunna be a long journey!! xx
Exactly the same as me! 140-150 would be perfect I think... I haven't been that small in a long time.0 -
I'm 5'6" with broad shoulders and hips. I know they "say"135 should be right for me, but I am shooting for 145. I mean, at 16 in a size 10 I was 155.0
-
Pre kids I was always 120-125lbs....I'm 150 lbs now and I will be happy with 130lbs but if I can knock it down to 125lbs I will be ecstatic! I was always very fit, six pack with out much work etc...I know it's there still, I can feel it underneath some cushion! Lol0
-
I feel good at 140, I look smokin at 130 0
-
I am 5'6" and I weigh 122. I think that's an awesome weight 2 be at my height.0
-
Depends on your build. I am a medium build and I look best at 1450
-
I would love to be about 160, screw those charts man. My goal is to be at 23% body fat. To me, it all depends on how much muscle you have! I want to be happy and healthy and have an occasional cookie!

I'm 5`6". I was 149.5 when I delivered my son 29 yrs ago. I've been as high as 176. I looked around 160something when I started this journey to healthiness. I want back into my vintage '47 black Laura Petrie dress. That means a cut 115.0
-
I used to be 150lbs and I think I looked good and I did feel healthy at that weight. I put on loads of weight but hopefully looking to get it off again. Between 140-150lbs is recommended for around that height. Aim for that weight and then you decide when to stop or continue, see how you feel. I wish you all the best0
-
im 5'6'' and a half and my goal weight is 125lb. oh i miss being tht weight!!!!0
-
I would like to be 130 but I don't wanna be skinny fat or whatever it's called. So I figure 135 - 140 because I felt I looked good at that weight and toned.0
-
I am 5'6" and presently weigh 141.5. My goal is 138, but I can't seem to get there. I bounce between 140-142. Recently weighed under 140 for a day. I am a size 8, and would say I am a small-medium build. I am also 58. I look and feel great where I am. Would like to reduce my BF%.0
-
When I got married 10 1/2 years ago I weighed 127.
If I can get there and maintain without having to work to hard, then I will stay there.
Otherwise between 130-135.0 -
Working towards 125 and then I'll see how I feel. Might be happy there, might want to lose another 10. I have no idea yet.0
