    I'm 5' 5". I am 46. I started on mfp at 164 lb but had been a bit heavier before logging on here. Currently just under 138lb but my goal weight is about 126lb.

    I am 5'5" as well, but older than you. I think you will know when you get there. That is what they always said in weight watchers. Sometimes the actually number is not as important as how good you look and feel. You will know when you are happy regardless of the exact number.

    125, but I will see when I get there. My original goal was 135 but it wasn't what I thought it was going to be.

    I'm 5'5", although up until a couple of months ago thought I was 5'7"!!! I can't have shrunk yet.. .i'm only 35!

    SW: 163
    CW: 151.5
    GW: 130s

    I recently rediscovered an old ID card from 2002. It lists my weight as 68kg! I'm almost there!!!

    Not sure when I'll actually stop. I'll probably have to listen to my hubby, because I think I'm getting slightly addicted to this weight-loss thing.

    I'm 5'3" and at 115 I still had comfortable room to lose another 5. Instead I gained 30. So my big flabby self is now working back to 115. I've decided that works well for me!

    Yeah, I'm 5ft 5 too, and am 18 years old. Last year my weight was 189lbs (13st 7lbs), but my actual SW on mfp was 140lbs (10st). I'm now aiming for 9st aka 126lbs. :)

    I'm 5'5". 26years old. I am 149 now but goal is to be 135... I really liked how I looked at 135lbs...but really if I Starr gaining muscle and look good then that's good too :)

    I am about 5' 5" currently about 137 and want to get to 130 - 125. I'll be happy with 130 by my 30th (6 weeks) and will then go from there. I've been on here over 200 days but some weeks are better than others, depending on weekend plans and self control :laugh:

    I'm actually 5'4", but I'm trying to get down to about 200 or as close to it as possible. Once I hit 200 then I need to drop another 20-40 lbs, but short term is that second 20 lbs.

    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)

    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. :)
