    I am 5'4.5." My goal is around 165ish. But my real goal is to wear a size 8-10ish. I may re-evaluate when I get there, and focus on dropping some inches around my waist if needed. I doubt my hips and thighs would let me go any lower than that, and I don't need to be a size 2 or 4 to be happy. I also tend to be a bit more muscular, so 120s aren't realistic for me, once I get to about 180 or so I'll stop paying attention to the scale.

    I'll probably be in the BMI "overweight" category at my goal.

    SW/size: 250/18-20 US (UK20-22)

    5"5"
    Age: 49
    SW: 122
    CW: 115

    I'm happy with this weight but I need to convert some belly flubber into muscle. So now that I got the weight down, I'm concentrating on exercising and getting in shape. If muscle adds more weight, then I'll be happy with that. I want to look good in the mirror, so I don't worry overmuch about what the scales say.

    My goal is probably 140-150 and I'm not there yet. , but honestly I think I'm to the point of not really caring. Just gonna continue to eat, lift heavy and see where it takes me. I'm fairly confident I will never see the 120s though.

    I'm 5'5 and 31, I had a goal weight when I first started last year at 178lbs...but I've come to the conclusion that when it comes to Health and Fitness the scale is null and void!

    I'm at 138, right now I have definition I've never had and prob the smallest I've ever remebering being, besides HS but even then I wasn't fit or healthy!

    the scale is a good for some feedback but don't let the scale define you and your journey!

    I'm 5' 41/2, 56 yrs old and aiming for 155 lbs. I'm afraid if I lose too much weight my face will look wrinkled and saggy. :smile:

    I'm 5'6", 58 years old and weigh 141. As you can see from my profile photo, my face is neither wrinkled not saggy. You only get sags and bags if you lose the weight too quickly. At .5-1 lb per week, you won't have to worry about wrinkles....I actually got rid of my double chin.

    Totally agree with you Reyna (what a surprise ;) ).

    I'm a mom to 4, 34, and 5'5". My SW here was 161, original goal was 135. Current weight is 135, and I'd like to get below 130, but I'm really not too worried about the number. Right now I am just focused on being healthy, losing body fat/inches, and gaining definition.

    I'm 5'6 and my goal is 135lbs as of now. I am currently 144 and I am nervous 9 more pounds won't make as much of a difference as I'm hoping! We will see :)

    135 or 145lbs. I am very muscular, so anything less than 135lbs and I would be too skinny

    Im 5'5 and 21 years old. My goal weight is 115lb but Ill be happy with anything close to that. I seem to stop at 120lb. I mostly want to teach myself how to eat more healthy instead of always going to the junk food. So far I have lost 7lbs on here. Good luck to everyone and reaching their goals. :)
