    WOW.

    This thread made me realize how truly messed up I am.

    I'm 5'7", weigh 100 lbs and I want to lose more.

    My goal is 135-140. In high school I was 125 and I looked like Skeletor. I would say I have a medium frame. Right now I am stuck in the "Pit of Despair" (aka the 160's) and am closing in on the high 150's. I fluctuate anywhere from 168-163 depending on my fluid retention. After today though, I'm probably back up in the 170's. Yikes.

    I just want to weigh under 140 fully dressed and after dinner. 135 naked first thing in the morning. :-)

    Lol at "Pit of Despair". I have been stuck in the 160's forever!! I can't seem to get below 167.5 and fluctuate between that and about 171/172. My goal is 140 since it's right in the middle of the healthy BMI range, and it is what I weighed when I got married. But I may change my mind if I ever get any closer. I would like to be a fit 140, rather than the flabby 140 I was before. But at the rate I am going I may just have to get used to 167.5! :laugh:

    140 . This is based on calorie king purse sized book. on this chart for 5'7 it ranges from 121-159. and BMI 19-25 for the weights I just listed. I wanted to be in the middle so 140 would be a BMI of 22.

    I am 5' 8", & I am down to a size 6 & 137 lbs. I would like to get down to 130 but that's probably too low. If I can maintain this weight I would be happy. It's addicting though.

    My 11 year old son (who is 5'1") weighs about 100, and he is thin. I am pretty sure 100 lbs would only be a healthy weight for someone about 5' tall or less. Please be careful, and take care of yourself. :flowerforyou:

    Any of you ladies feel free to friend me. I started out at 158 at the first of the year and have reached 138.6. My original goal was to be under 140 but I'm still not quite where I want to be. My new goal is 135 with more muscle definition. I have a medium frame.

    The girl with the skinny legs, that's me at 90 lbs.

    To the majority of people, I was not hot. That dress was bought because it was layered and made me look less skeletal. I was also ridiculously active, ate a huge amount, and had a very high metabolism. People made fun of me because I looked 'sick' and 'ugly'. So many rumors and lies went around. Life went on, I gained weight. Got to college and 120 lbs. If you ask me, I looked a lot better, and felt a lot better there.

    Now I'm 28, and 120 again. And I definitely do not think I need to loose more. If anything I'd like to thicken flatten and bulk up more.

    YES! I am in the same spot! I actually don't mind the 160's, I think I look pretty good here and I run at a respectable pace at this weight... so no pit of despair, but definitely ready to be done with the 160's and into a normal BMI range! It's been months of 160's, I don't even want to think about how many months...

    At this stage in my life, I'd kill to weigh 170. That is my goal and if and when I make it to there, then I'll see if I'm happy with it or not :-)

    It's been months for me too. Unfortunately I am a pretty jiggly 167.5! :laugh: So I do mind the 160's. If I can tone up some (a lot) I won't be too worried about the number on the scale though.

    I have a large frame so my first goal is 175, but I'll see how I look and feel then and change it to 160 if necessary

    Hey:) I'm 5'7 and ultimately I'd like to be between 140-150 :)

    well right now, 175. but maybe eventually 160. i don't know, i have a weird body.....small extremities but a larger rib cage and such. I hate my rib cage...i feel like it protrudes way too much. same with my hip bones...ugh

    I have a large rib cage and hip bones too, plus small boobies which make the other issues more prominent. I do truly love my body with all its imperfections, i feel myself getting stronger everyday and i've found the older i get the less i care what anyone else thinks! This is the body i was given so im gonna make the most of it and stop complaining about what's "wrong" with it and start relishing all thats right with it!!!!

    My goal has been 139/high 130s. I am finally starting to actually lose weight again (thanks to the Dukan Diet, not MFP, to be honest) and am now thinking about aiming for 135. I'd be perfectly fine with weighing 140-145 if I was able to put on more muscle weight though and were toned. I currently have a veeery flabby midsection that sticks out a lot and I know my body fat percentage is high compared to my "normal" BMI so my goal is to address that more than the number on the scale and hopefully reverse my prediabetes. I want to fit back into the smaller of my size 10 jeans and not have muffin top, or people eyeing my stomach trying to figure out if I'm pregnant!

    145 or 135. I got to 149 pounds in 2010 using MYFITNESSPAL
    and got preggers not long after losing 55 pounds.

    Happy Weight Loss :drinker:

    Im 5'7 1/2 and my goal is 185. I am at 205 now and in between size 12 and 14. I use to have an eating disorder in my late teens early twenties and I was a sack of bones weighing 145 and in a size 0/2. Ive finally started to realize the number on the scale is just that....a number :) So with my body frame anything below 175 would look horrific on me , but everyone is built different and carries their weight in different places
