Hey Guys. I am 5'4 and have a curvy shape. Most of my weight is in my hips, thighs and butt. My arms are a lil chunky too. Just wondering what is a nice goal weight for this height? I don;t want to be totally skinny I still want some of my curves.
«134

    My goal is anywhere between 125-128. Depending on your build, you could probably go as low as 120. But when I first started losing, my goal was 130.

    Good luck!

    I'm naturally an hourglass too, your curves are never going to disappear with weight loss if you were born with them! Your boobs might get smaller, but you can combat that with exercise. I'm 5'4 and my current weight is 120, I'm aiming for 110-115.

    Shoot, I'm 150 right now (two babies and a love for wine) and I'd be happy at 135. Granted, I was always less than 125 before the kids, but my body has changed shape to the point that I won't ever look like I used to. *SIGH*

    Hey well I'm a lot heavier than all the other ladies who replied I'm 221 now and my goal at the moment is 185. I guess when I reach that goal I'll shoot for something else. good luck to you :smile:

    When I was in high school I was about 115 and looking back at picture I was skeletal (thought I was fat at the time, but that's another story). Before I had my first daughter I was about 125. A year after she was born I was almost back to my original weight (130) but was a size 8 instead of a 4/5 pre-baby. Second baby got me up to 175 and my weight has been up and down ever since. My goal is 135, and maybe lower eventually. At this point I'd be happy to get under 150!! I don't think I'd go lower than 130 though. Hubby likes some curves :)~

    Originally I had it set for 125, then when I got to about 130 I decided to bump it down to 120. I'm currently 123. Still got curves. Working on perking up and smoothing out some of the curves by exercising with heavier weights. :-)

    The 'healthy BMI' range for 5'4" is between 107-147 I think. I was 105 in high school and it was too small and I was not healthy even though I was skinny. I'm aiming to keep more muscle on my frame this time around b/c muscle makes whatever you've got look better. ;-)

    When I was younger I lost about 50lbs and dropped from one 180ish to 130s. At my thinnest at 5'4 I was 125 with 38DD and was a size 3, I looked sickly....its all in your body type and what you look/feel like. I never lost my boobs either. I lost it everywhere else. Some people are meant to be tiny, i was never meant to be smaller than 125, you could count every rib, every bone in my body. My goal now is to be 140-150. Good luck!

    I'm 5'4" and my goal weight right now is 150. I am about 208 now and I still have a big belly. My whole family is heavy set and stockier build people. I will reassess when I get closer to my goal weight. I'm really just looking forward to getting into the 100's sometime in the next few months.

    I am 145 now, goal is 130. When I first started about a year ago, goal was 140 but as I as losing, I realized I could go further and get to a size 8.

    5'4", large frame and large chest. Ultimately I'm shooting for about 145 but not sure that would be maintainable for me. Based on the number of sizes I've lost already, getting to 145 would put me in a size 8. That would be PERFECT!!

    My ultimate goal was 125-130. I've been fluctuating between 137 and 140 for the past few months. Trying to stay motivated to drop this last 10-15. I carry my excess weight in my belly.

    Right now my goal is 130. When I hit that I will reevaluate, perhaps try for 125. I was 129 just before my first pg and still trying to lose a few lbs, but obviously 2 kids have changed my body, so we'll see!

    I'm 5'4" my current weight is 149 and my goal weight is 132 because I still want to be curvy. 128 is probably the lowest I would ever want to be, I used to be that years ago but apparrently I looked too skinny and unhealthy

    Hey! I'm 5'4 and have a medium frame. My ultimate goal weight is 116, but I would be happy at 120.

    If you want curves, I'd say 140 would be a good goal, depending on body type.

    How on earth did you wear a 38 band at 5'4" and 125lbs? I am 5'5" and 125, and I wear a 32 band.

    I'm at 154 right now, with a current goal weight of 140. Once I hit that weight, I'll decide where to go from there. I wouldn't want to weigh less than 130 though.

    Wow, wide variation! This has been interesting to read.

    I feel good at about 118.

    starting weight was 220-ish....

    Original goal weight was 160 - but after some thought, I have set it to 145. That may change as I am not sure how that will look. My main concern is to tone and "look" good....the number on the scale is not as important to me as how I look and feel!

    As you get closer, just keep in mind that the scale is not the best measure.....body fat, inches....those are going to tell the real story :)

    Oh gosh .... Not again : ) The scale ...... And picking a number as a goal Nope. Myy goal isn't a number ....it's the body I want ..that's my goal. I'm size 8 now, down from a 16 a year ago. My start weight 236. My weight now ??? May surprise you.
    Still have some tweaking to do.

    Check it out ...... My blog. My profile is open, the link is there.
