    I'm 5'4 1/2" and my goal weight is 125. I was at 129 a year ago but now at 149. Slowly creeped up on me. I have hypothyroid which also doesn't help even with medication.

    Add as friend, I need encouragement and I can offer the same.

    id love to be about 10 stone (140) and fit into size 12 (uk) any smaller than that and i get shapeless in my opinion.

    I am 5'5" and my SW 229lbs, my CW is 211lbs my first goal weight is 185lbs. The smallest I have ever been was 139lbs, and I was too skinny. I am not so much worried about the scale, but I want to fit into size 9 jeans, which I was able to do at 185lbs last time.

    I'm 5'4" and my goal is 160! Ultimately 145 but the lightest I've ever been (and I was low body fat, lots of muscle) was 160 so that's my goal.

    Thats my goal too!!

    145 is my goal. My skeletal form wouldn't allow me to be less than a 12 around the hips and I like my curves so I'd be over the moon at 145.

    THIS!!
    I'm naturally quite muscular so for me to be under 145 would mean I would completely lose the curves that I have.

    I'm 5'5". My goal weight is between 145-150.
    I don't think I could go lower than 140. I still wanna have some butt, thigh, and boob haha
    Right now I'm 151, and when I started MFP I was 171.

    I let go of the idea of a "goal weight." Instead I'm focusing on getting my body to look a certain way, i.e., flat belly, no flab, etc. :smile:

    5'5 here. I was down to 125lbs the end of last summer. Gained some back over the winter to 135lbs. Down to 130/132. But clothes fit about the same at 125lbs. I'm building more muscles now I do believe. I just want to look good in what I'm wearing. Not so worried about the scale.

    I am 5'5" and 38 years old. My goal is goal weight is 145. I started at over 220 and never remember being less than 158. I believe it to be reachable but not easy. I will reevaluate from there.

    I'm 5 5" 29 years old, current weight 147pounds (or 10 and a half stone in UK terms) goal weight is 126 pounds/9 stone, and my motivation is my impending March 2013 wedding. (although I want to reach close to goal weight in 2 or 3 of months so I can start dress shopping) I'd love to be a size 10 (US 6)

    I have been 9 stone before when I was 20 years old and remember how many compliments I got as my usual weight during my early 20's was 9 and a half stone (133 pounds) and I felt great, slim but not skinny.

    I have been 8 stone 4 before (116 pounds) when I was 18 but all I remember is my Mum and my best friend worrying that I was too thin and quite frankly as I have a medium rather than petite build I think it did make me look a little skinny, obviously not dangerously so but when compliments turn to concern you have to trust your loved ones opinions. Fortunatley I didn't have an eating disorder or dismorphia beyond teenage body image angst so I corrected my eating habits and put on 10 pounds within a few months by starting to join in with family meals again instead of just shooting out the house and having a bag of crisps for dinner.

    By that I'm not discouraging anyone who may be a more petite framed 5'5" going for under 120 pounds but for me I didn't look good.

    So yeah 126 pounds, slim but still retains some feminine curves and no boney bits. :D

    Good luck x
