    I'm 5'2" and 113 lbs. I am still not happy. I am not really concerned about the pounds but I'd like to be around 18-20% BF.

    Do you use a body fat caliper to measure your BF?? I have no idea what my BF is, and don't know the best way to measure it.


    No, I used a scale and it said 25%. Even when I do BF calculators online, they all say 25% so I am going with that. I just want to see the number go down. I'll know to stop when I am satisfied with what I see in the mirror.

    I'm just under 5'3" and my goal is 135lbs. I'll re-*kitten* when I reach my goal to see if I want to lose more.

    I'm 5'3" and would be happy with 145 to 150. If I lose too much I look sick.

    honestly im not sure. In highschool I was a size 2 but I was 135 lbs, I have always had a really high BMI. Im going to try to get to a size 2 or 4 but I dont know how much I will weigh at that point.

    I am 5' 2" and look my best at 130 lbs. I am also 59 years old and when you get to be my age it just makes you look old if you lose
    to much weight. I am just starting on 4/30 with Paleo/Primal program. I really don't need to count calories I don't think, but should keep track of carbs.

    I'm 5'2" and currently 143. My goal weight is 120. My lowest weight was 118 when I got married but it was so long ago, that I don't remember what I felt like at that weight!

    I'm at 5'3 right now, currently 143 lbs. My goal weight is 135 but because I'm pear shaped. I don't think I'd look good anything lower than that.

    I'm 5'1" and right now I'm shooting for 125. I managed to get to 128 last year and then found out I was pregnant. And then after I had her, I became lazy. I've just restarted trying to lose weight and she's almost 10 months old!

    I am 32, 5'2 and CW is 115 and my BF is 19%. My UG was to get to 18% BF and my trainer said I should get to 113 while also adding lean muscle. So that's my UG now.

    I'm 5'2" and 29 years old. I started at 118 lbs last October and have gotten as far down as 108. Lately I haven't been able to put as much time into exercise, so my weight's been more in the 109-110 range. I still have a lot of flab that I'd like to get rid of, so my ultimate goal weight would probably be something like 105.

    I'm 5'2.5'' (lol) and I have my goal set at 110-115, but in reality I just want to lose my tummy fat... so if I can do that at a muscled 120, that'd be great too :happy:

    I'm 52 years old, 5' tall. Was happy and curvy at 135 for years. Got depressed and got up to 152. So...my goal is 132lbs. Last time I was at 132 my friends were worried about how thin I was getting. I look bad under 130.
    Seems weird when I see others at my height shooting for 110 or whatever. Goes to show that all our body types are SO different.
    Oh, I'm almost 1/2 way there, thanks to MFP
