    5.6 1/2 here, and I'm shooting for 148. Actually, 150 will be good, but I want to have a 2 lbs safety net. This way, if I slip up maintaining my weight, I'll know that I cannot cross 150. As of right now, I have 29.6 lbs to go to reach 148, having lost 3.4 lbs in the past 2 weeks. :smile:

    CW: 156.6 (back up this morning. UGH!)
    GW: 140

    Although, I was 138 a year ago and would really prefer to get back to that. I'd be ok with a higher weight if I could drop back down a pants size.

    Im about 135, but I dont watch the scale anymore at this point. Im working on toning- and as long as Im toned I could weigh 250 and I would be ok with it. :smile:

    Aiming for 140. I'll re-evaluate when I get there but I can't see me going much lower. Definitely below 145 for sure!

    Your weight should be 9stone 12 lbs(127 pounds) for being 5ft 7 inch, but i was told this about 4 years ago by my doctors, it may of changed.

    Wow, really? I can't imagine being that small. Although, when I started my original aim was to get to 187 lbs (85kgs, the weight I was when I last felt really healthy), and I'm only 5lbs away from that. Mind you, I don't feel like I've lost 25lbs, although on good days I can tell that I have.

    I am 5'6" and 125 and this suits me just fine. Working on toning and being fit, not losing any weight :)

    135 is my goal weight. I'm at 152 right now, my lowest weight was 142 and I felt I had a few more pounds to go.

    I'm 5' 7.5"
    Start weight 200
    CW 187
    Goal around 168. I was 142 at my lightest ever and I hate those photos of me I look scrawny and ill. So gonna keep some curves, I like it and my fiancé likes it too. 168 would put me in a healthy BMI range so I would be very happy with that x

    Started out close to 240 and am hoping to get down between 160 and 170. My weight has fluctuated between 200 and 250 for the past 20 years so 160-170 would be a dream!
