    I'm only 5'6" but at 140 I just put on a size 6 jeans. Normally I'm an 8 now (was a 16) but it was nice to button a 6. No desire to be a 6 though.

    Thinking 135 is too thin for you 5'9" ladies. Guess it depends on your age. If in 20's or early 30's maybe but in your 40's or older it is really hard to maintain.

    I started off at 186 and pushing out of a 16 due to huge stomach. Lost 50 and got a tummy tuck and I've been bouncing around for a year and trying to land at 135 and stay close to that.

    I'm 5'9 also and goal is 170. I started at 295, so I've got a LONG way to go yet, but slowly and surely....I am getting there!
    Nice to see that's the choice for most of us this height.

    5'9" 155

    When i first started losing weight (before MFP) I weight very close to 200.. and I thought it would be a miracle if I ever hit 175.. and then I did and was like woahhhh maybe my body frame is smaller than I thought haha.

    Goal weight about 145-147. When people say the last 10 is the hardest.. i am definitely going through that. It has been hard to stay motivated, but I have given up excuses.. so i am interested to see what happens!

    Thank you! You WILL get there, trust me! Now I'm not concerned with the number on the scale, I'm focused on gettting FIT! So I know now that I'm getting serious with strength training (I did all cardio to lose the weight) the scale might go up a bit. I'm using inches to determine progress now instead of the scale! :)

    I'm at 135 now at 5'9" and trust me, for my body it is nowhere NEAR to thin. I haven't taken a pic since 135, but my profile pic is at 140, and I look pretty much the same.
