    Im 5'5" with a goal of 165-170ish. I havent really set a firm goal. Im just going to see where it takes me. However, I dont believe I will ever hit below those numbers. Ive never been fit/thin/whatever. Thats not what this is about for me.

    some of these posts are soooo funny !

    I am like the girl who totally went from birth to size 14 (maybe 16) and have struggled for forever !!!

    I am reasonable -- I'd be happy with a 12 honestly. I feel like its attainable and manageable. Size 2
    I'd never eat again

    lol, size what????????? Girl no size 2 is for 9th graders......I am a real woman!

    Oh and this is just plain offensive. Some of my tops are US size 2s. Am I not a real woman because I'm naturally quite petite?

    I don't want to be a size 2 and not sure as I ever could be again. I was 98 lbs at 20 but then packed on the pounds when I was pregnant and had cancer...lots of stress eating. I am 5'3" and 138lb (today, lol) and my original goal was 135 and now I want 125, lol. The thing I want the most though is a boob job if I can ever get to the point of affording it :)

    I'm 5'10ish and very large boned.
    My grandmother was a size 16 with size 10 feet so from a very non-scientific genetic point of view--- there's no way I could possibly be a 2 or wear a size 6 shoe. PERIOD.

    Ideally, I just want to be a firm, tone, healthy 14 so I can FINALLY go to this one designer consignment shop and not only shop the handbags but shop the clothes too. :)

    I'm a guy, currently wearing size 34. I'm thinking my backbone has more than a 2 inch circumference, so no, I won't be going for a size 2 anytime soon. I'd need a saber saw. On, and to be dead. :laugh:

    Seriously, though, women's clothing sizes utterly mystify me. How can a "size" be expressed by the number zero? :noway:

    It's like Starbucks, a universe where there is no such thing as "small", "medium", and "large". It starts out a lie (no, that coffee ain't "tall" in anyone's book, sunshine) and then starts to use fancy foreign words to hide the fact that you are paying $1.50 extra for a "medium". LOL.

    It's because no woman wants to say she wears a 24 or whatever is equal to a 4/6 - it's all marketing. That's all it is.

    And If you'd understand the meaning behinds starbucks if you knew the company was started after an Italian journey. That's why they use those names.

    I've never been a size 2. I was briefly a size 6 but I usually was around the size 8/9 back in the day and that's where I would love to be!

    Funny thing is I was probably never happy with an 8/9 at the time but now I wish I was that size!

    Everyone is different so a size 2 might look normal for someone and then unhealthy on someone else. I think its a form of discrimination for you to say size 2 is a bad thing. Would you say a size 22 is a bad thing? Then whats stopping you from saying a size 12 is not healthy, or a size 30? Seriously, worry about you.

    I am aiming for a uk size 12 - especially in Jeans. I'm 5'5 and my target is 145lbs ( the top end of the normal range of BMI) My family have large bottoms so I know that I'll never be tiny in the trouser size.

    My weight loss goal is 175 too. I definitely don't care to be a size 2.

    I'm not interested in a size, I just want to be more toned. Sizes and numbers on a scale are easy, if not incomplete, measures of success. I'd rather lose inches because that means I'm toning. If the scale doesn't budge, so be it.
