    CW 137ish
    GW 125ish?

    I really am most concerned with toning and losing some more fat, and I am hoping that at this weight it will achieve that goal.

    138 is enough for me...I can't imagine being lower than that but I want to keep more muscle

    I have a large build so I don't know what would be a good weight for me? I am guessing 140 but that is just what the charts say for someone my height.

    Can't remember if I posted here already or not... but my goal is about 175. I weighed 175 when I graduated HS, and I looked awesome. I don't think I could maintain anything smaller than that...

    I... kinda like to eat...

    somewhere between 130 and 145. I've never been anywhere near that small, so I honestly don't know how I'll look and feel until I'm there! But I don't think I could imagine going below 130. I have a medium build, and broad shoulders and chest, so any lower than that and I'd probably look disproportionate... not cute! lol

    145lbs is my target though I may stop around 150lbs as that was my smallest so don't know if I could get smaller lol

    GW 130-135

    My lowest was 132 but I'd like to have more muscle than I did then. Once I reach my goal weight I'm going to work on adding more muscle and see how my weight goes from there..

    I am looking for 175 - 180 as well. Larger framed (plus I'm old! LOL)

    I want to be realistic about what I can maintain. I'm around 225 now and in a size 16, so guessing 175 - 180 will put me in a 12 which I would be thrilled about!

    I'm looking to be 170. I have a large frame; I may reassess when I get to 170, but I'm going to play it by ear.

    I'm naturally muscular but also think I that I have a smaller frame. I've never been under 140 in my adult life so I'll def have to reasses when I get to 135.

    There are a lot of goal weights in the 120's. I think I would look horrible at that weight. My CW is 150 and I really just need to tone up now so hopefully I can reach 140 but I don't think I could go any lower- I'll never have a slim build- I'm such a 'big' person even when I'm skinny, if that makes sense!!

    Your cw was my start weight. I had a pot belly and felt winded all the time and my heart would beat out of my chest when I stood up. I was also eating about 4000 calories a day being sedentary, so I am definately not the 150 you are lol. Thats why a lot of people have different goals I suppose. Just get to a goal that makes you feel healthier, and it should be easier to maintain with your lifestyle. Ignore what everyone else is and don't critisize them if they are being healthy about it. I usually try for 2000 cals now and am a lot more active. I'm now a bit heavier then what I was before I gained (120 now).

    10 more pounds! You are so close! Congrats

    I'm looking for 140 - I think that suits me the best, although the slimest I've been in the last 10 years is 155! But reckon I can do 140 this time - so much more motivation :)

    135. I was 114 once and I looked scary skinny. 135 is a much better weight for me.

    I look fine around 145, but even when I was there, I remember wanting to be smaller. But I don't want to just be tiny; I want to be fit. So, gotta leave some room for some muscle weight.

    my weight right now is 165 my goal weight right now is 150...

    then it will be 140... then 135 maybe depending how i look and feel and how hard it is to maintain.
