    Im 5'1'' and my goal weight is 120 lbs. I will reevaluate when I get there or closer. I am more concerned with not looking so big.

    I'm 5"1.5 and was originally aiming for 150 because I was around 200 lbs, and 50 lbs seemed so far off. Now, as I edge very close to the 150s, I am re-evaluating and I think 130 will be good for me. I've been heavy my entire life so that would be a very healthy goal.

    Wow it's crazy how different everyones' body types can be! Lol. To the people who know their Body Fat %...what do you use to measure it?? I heard scales aren't very accurate, and that body fat calipers are more accurate, but I'm not sure what I should use!

    I read that bioimpedence scales are reasonably accurate and for many people, they're easier to use than calipers. Obviously, there are other, more expensive and less accessible methods that are supposed to be more accurate (scans, underwater weighing).

    I use the scale reading as a benchmark. I think the bf% estimate may be slightly low, but if it says 22 for a while and after I've reduced fat in my diet and worked out it starts saying 18 for several days that's still valuable information.

    5'2" going for 135lbs for now. If I feel like lower is necessary, I'll re-assess, but 135 is prob a good fit for me :)

    I am 5ft 1in, 122lbs with 30% BF. I wouldn't mind losing weight but I am more concerned with my BF %. I would like to be around 20% and probably 110lbs.

    I'm 5'1 and my CW is 132, GW is 115. I'm short and curvy, so if I don't get below 120 I think that will be okay. I would love to get down to my early college weight of 105, but not sure if that's possible (I'm 28). My HW was 153, and I lost 20 pounds just from eating better and exercising (I do Zumba). I joined MFP to stay on track and lose the next 20 pounds :)
