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

    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!
    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.

    The answer to this depends on your body shape and composition. I am right around 130 give or take 2 pounds or so. The numbers on the scale present entirely different depending on how much muscle you have, etc. It's good to set a goal, but your level of health, fitness, and personal happiness with how you look will always be a better indicator than a number. :)

    I am 5'4" and an extreme hourglass, 34DD/sometimes E when I was my goal weight previously.

    I haven't fully ironed out my goal, though I think it will settle between 135 and 140. Though, I have been VERY happy in the 150s when I had a significant portion of muscle, so we'll see :).

    I THOUGHT I wanted to be 120, but it just doesn't work on my frame! Thus, I think the goal will be very different depending on body type, and on the specific details of your goal -- i.e. are you a lifter looking for visible muscle, are you just looking to be thinner, etc.

    In high school, I was around 100 lbs and very thin, but I didn't look sickly. At my heaviest, (not counting pregnancies), I weighed 146 and looked just awful...too thick in the middle, boobs, and arms...even my face was round.My goal weight has been 120-124. I've lost down to 130 and that's actually not as heavy as I thought since my arms are toned (10-lb barbells). My excess weight is in my belly, too, so I really need to get back into the crunches!

    I am a whole inch taller than you but my goal is 140. I have lost like all my weight out of my upper body at this point and need to start losing in my lower half.

    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*

    This is me too! I think you need to consider age in this question as well....I'll be 39 this year, have had 2 kids and my shape and metabolism aren't the same as when I was 20 or 25. I started at nearly 160 and would love to see (and be happy at!) 135. I have a medium frame, small chest and strong legs & arms. All of which I appreciate more than being weak and skinny!
