Just wondering. I'm slim but I'm not sure if I'm at the right weight or not and I wanted to know what you guys were working towards. I'm 118 lbs, by the way, and 5'2.

    I'm 5'1 and I'm about 121 lbs. I'm little flabby and stuff. Trying to get fitter so I guess that for me, my perfect weight would be 105 lbs -112 lbs something around there. And for you, since you're 5'3 it would be 115 lbs - 130 lbs...
    Hope this helps something!

    I think part of it depends on your age but if I were 118 pounds right now I would be estastic. I might look sickly too though. I am 54 years old and I am 5'2". I know all the charts, etc., say I should be between 110 and 120 but I really think that would make me look drawn. I would be very happy at 140. However, if I were a lot younger, I would want to be between the 110 and 120.

    I'm 5'3 and I'm shooting for the midpoint of healthy for me - 130, when I get to a couple pounds below healthy I plan to start heavy lifting to shape up.

    It surely is age dependent! I am 5'2" and 135 at the moment at not too happy about it. I am in great shape but still carrying too much fat. 10 years ago I weighed 125 and thought that was too fat. Now I am trying to get to 130 and maintain that but at 57 its pretty hard, and I am very active which makes me hungry!

    I'm 5'3 and my goal is 140. I have large breast and hips with a small waist so anything less would make me look sickly.

    I'm 134 and 5'2.

    Goal is set to 120, but to be honest, I really don't care about some arbitrary number. I go with measurements and BF%. At 16 years old, I was 112 and in a size 5. Now, I weigh more and actually just bought a 3/4. My goal is to be strong and healthy, not skinny.

    5'1 and aiming for a toned 120--that is the last weight where I actually liked the person I saw in the mirror

    I am 5'3" and would like to settle between 130-135. I am more about being a size vs the # on the scale. I want to be a solid single digfit - 8. I have never been a single digit my whole life, and it is what I want to do. I am working towards it - it is a slow process.

    I think you are at your ideal healthy weight or close to it. I'm 5'1" and 132lbs. so I have a few pounds to shed. I would like to be at 115 or around that number anyway.

    Right now I'm shooting for 135.. I45 was my goal last summer.. Baby steps other wise I'll have a hard time keeping it off with my PCOS.. I have curves and love them so We'll redetermine that weight when I get there and see how toned I am.

    I am 42 and 5"2

    I have always been told I have an hour glass figure, and really liked how I looked at 120-123.
    I haven't been that weight since early thirties though so right now I have mini goals for weekly weight loss set so I will hit 130 by the end of August.

    I was excited to think about being 130 when I started here on MFP,.......but I have a sneaky suspicion that I will want to be smaller. Even though I have big hips and bra size is a D cup,.......I know more about body fat and BMI and honestly think 130 may be still too big for my height.

    I'm 41, 5ft 1 1/4", 125 lbs. I wouldn't mind losing a few more lbs but mostly aiming to be very toned and my measurements matter to me more than the number on the scale. Most of my adult life, I varied between 105-115 and felt good there but as I've gotten older and had 3 kids, my body shape changed and my metabolism suddenly slowed down.

    I'm around 5'2 and about to turn 33. I weigh 132lbs (lost 23lbs) and I'm not too worried if I don't lose any more though my bum and thighs are still pretty big. Happy with top half and just toning up a bit!

    I am 5'2.5" -- My goal weight is 120. I have a medium bone structure and would like to be toned/muscular, and I don't think I could get much smaller than 120 and still look "healthy", which is really what I want.
