I'm 5'7" and curious as to what one would look like at 170ish lbs?! I know everyone is built different but It's been soooo long since I've been that weight I just want something to look forward to :) And if you don't mind could you tell me what size you are..thanks!!!

    Hey there! This isn't exactly what you asked for, I'm 5'9". This was me at 173 pounds, a size 8.

    I'm 5'7" and weigh about 164 lbs. A little embarrassed to share this but if it helps... I wear a 10-12 in pants (depends on the brand, I almost fit in a 6 at Ann Taylor somehow). Usually a M in tops, sometimes a L (if it buttons, sometimes that isn't even big enough). I'm trying to tone up (especially my arms and belly).

    I'm 5'7" and my starting weight was like 162... if you go to my profile, the pic of me in the grey dress is representative. Remember though, everyone carries their weight differently!

    We have the same basic goal! I've got some serious hips so i'm always wary of what others look like at my goal weight (ill never be a size 6 with my baby birthing hips!) I'm very interested to see what everyone looks like too though! nice to know someday I wont be so...lumpy.

    I am headed to the that myself. I am hoping for 160 and I am 5'7". Right now I am 205 and a size 14. Last time I was 160 I was a size 12 but that was 31 years ago. I hear sizes are different now than they were. Don't know since I have been in the sizes in the 20's and 30's for so long...

    I am 5'6 and 1/4 to be exact, so you will look a little thinner than I did! I couldn't find many pictures of me at 170lbs because I got out of that range pretty quick...but this is one that I found!

    I'm 5'6" and 165lbs, so that's pretty close. I wear a 10 and a M right now. It's not where I want to be but I'm starting to actually feel a bit more comfortable and notice that I've actually lost something.

    Profile picture is not a current weight at all...that's around 120ish for reference

    everybodys body is built different so that is so hard to judge by, for example I am 5'7 and i weigh 186 right now and wear a size 10, and i am seeing comments where a 5'7 woman is 170 and a size 10, crazy hey, so this question would be so hard to answer, there are sites you can go to where they adjust a picture of yourself to what you will look like at your goal weight , why not try that, but its very interesting to see all the different responses lol
