    I'm 5'3" and my official 'goal' weight is 135. I'll have to wait and see what I look like anywhere from 140-125 though and would be happy with anything in that range as long as I felt good about the way I look.

    Hi - I'm 5'3 and have set my goal in increments. Once I get to my initial goal of 157, then I would like (love) to drop to 140. :happy:

    I'm a almost 5'4'' and my goal weight is 115. My sister was 108 last summer and she looked too skinny, but I'm 133 and have a ways to go!

    I'm 5'3" and I think my goal is 145 ish, I am at 176 right now, and I have lost 107 pounds already. I have no idea though on the specific number. When I get there and feel good and don't have to spend everyday at the gym and obsessing over every bite, and not gain, then I will be at goal :)

    I'm not so much as big on the number on the scale as my size jeans/how my clothes fit. My goal is 115, BUT I do know in high school I was a competitive swimmer and I weighed between 115-118 and looked absolutely too thin, BUT I was a size 0 and a ton of muscle. My goal is to be a comfortable size 2 (I'm a 4/6 right now) and to feel comfortable and look good in my clothes, BUT I also have a very petite frame and bone structure, so a size 2 may not be reasonable for all people. I have plenty of friends who I think look amazing and are a 6/8 and the same height as me, it just all depends on your body shape and bone structure. I would ultimately say pick around 135-130 to start with and then go from there, and don't be obsessed with the number on the scale! Its all about how you feel in your clothes and what you're comfortable with, not necessarily the number on the scale!

    I'm 40 years old with three kids...I'm small boned, and I'm setting my goal at 125. Would love to be a bit lower, but I suspect my pre-pregnancy 110 is a vain goal. I'll be happy to be muffin-top free and toned.

    Very pleased to see that, only a few pounds in, most of my pants (usually size 6-8 petite) are loose!

    I'm shooting for 130. That's the number that's always stood out in my head. With that said, though, I'm honestly just chugging along, 10 lbs at a time and who knows? Maybe I'll get to 140 & feel like I'm in a good place. I want to be healthy. That's the bottom line. I'm 2+ years to 40... ugh, sounds worse out loud... and I want to be 40, FIT AND FABULOUS. Even though I plan to be to my goal well before my 40th!

    I have wondered the same thing. So I Googled it!! Here is a fantastic link that I think was the most helpful:
    http://web4health.info/en/answers/ed-dia-weight-ideal.htm

    I am just under 5'4" and this chart says that for ideal weight AND longest life, it says I should weigh between 132 and 147. I liked that answer!! I think 140 would be ideal.

    Hello :)
    5'3 and my goal is 107, which isn't too far off from where I am now! But truth be told, I care more about how I feel and how my clothes fit, more so than the number on the scale.

    I am 5'4" and my goal weight is about 130, I want to be a size 8 by then. If I increase my strength training and toning, I could even get to a size 6.

    A six pack by the August long weekend.

    I'm 5' almost 3". Started at 130#. Thought I'd aim for 115#, but think if I'm going to get stronger, then the weight itself doesn't matter - I'd prefer a hot body (with abs) for swimsuit season.

    I'm in the same boat. I started at 135 lbs and am aiming for 115, but at 125 right now, I'm not as concerned about the number on the scale as much as getting the muscle and strength for a good -looking body.
