    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!

    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:

    I am going for 140, I just want to be in the healthy BMI range, I will reevaluate from there.

    Around 125-130. Lower would be amazing, but have to keep it achievable!

    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!!!!!

    SW 190
    CW 169.8

    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. :)

    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 :).

    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" lol

    Exactly the same as me! 140-150 would be perfect I think... I haven't been that small in a long time.

    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.

    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! Lol

    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!:tongue:

    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.

    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 best

    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.

    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%.

    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.

    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.
