Hi all. I was wondering what everyone's goals are for their height and age?

I'm 5ft 9, currently weight 151lb (10 stone 11). I'm 39 and a size 14.

I'd idealy like to be around 140lb (10 stone) and a size 12. Although, I'm really big busted (34H), so may have to still fit a 14 up top, and a 12 down below!! :laugh:

I don't want to be too skinny, I like my curves, but I really wanna lose the love handles and baby belly!! :laugh:

    Hi,

    I am 5ft 3 and currently weigh 153.78lb (10 stone 9) I am 27 and a size 12

    My target weight is 121 (8 stone 6) and a size 8 - 10. I am an ex gymnast so have rather wide shoulders, so I may struggle getting back in to a size 8 top.

    I want my pre baby figure back, and I am will to do anything to get it at the min, I had a emergency C-Sect to have her, so I want my belly gone. I have lost 22lb so far, and heading in the right direction. My next target goal is 132lb and I want to do it in 9 weeks. I am going to a wedding them and want to look fab.
  • Hi there

    I've just joined and loving this site so far.

    I'm 5ft 4.5in, weigh 206lb (14st 10lb). I'm currently in a 16-18 clothes size - I'm aiming for a 14 and then see how I feel.
    I am aiming to get to 154lb (11st).

    Wish I'd found this site before, going on holiday on 14th June, so not much time to lose much before then. I'm going to start the 30 day shred as there seem to be some good results. I've had the dvd for months and still in the plastic wrapper!

    I'm 5'6", 14st 9, just turned 30 and size 18.

    Want to lose about 60 lbs, maybe size 12/14 and improve my overall fitness too. Spent too long eating too much wrong stuff and too little time exercising.

    I'm 53, 5 foot 4inches tall and currently weigh 10st 2 and am a size 12/14 on top and 10/12 on the bottom.

    I was 13stone before I started this 3 year weightloss journey. I wouldn't mind being 9 stone something but I'm pretty much where I want to be. Some people on this thread seem to be aiming a bit low for their height.

    Hi I'm Sarah my stats are,

    5'5" 10stone 6pounds, 29 years old, clothes ususally 12 jeans, 14 tops (I'm a bit of an apple) I've put my goal as 9 stone as that was the weight I was when I met my OH 9 years ago and I'm getting married next year although I'd be really happy with 9 and a half, but mostly I want to shrink the inches around my belly I'm 35" round the belly button (39.5" round the hips) I'd love that to be under 30" even if I stayed the same weight.

    I've been doing MFP for a month and only lost 1 pound, which is a bit of a nightmare! In fact is there anyone who's around my weight and height who's losing and can give me any tips? :D

    I'm 40, 5'5" and weigh 9st 6lbs. Size 10/12 bottom 12/14 top (big boobs and ribcage).
    Starting weight around 15 stone, size 20 - 24.
    I'm at my goal weight and size now but want to tone up and lose some flab especially off my belly.
    My maintenance weight range is between 9.3 - 9.8 stone, I'd like to stay somewhere between those weights and it gives me a bit of wiggle room to allow for holidays, natural fluctuation etc.

    You think? I haven't seen any particularly low goals here. People carry weight differently, it depends on your frame and how you carry weight. And personal preference of course.

    Hello....I'm 5ft 8. My starting weight was 12 stone 9 in February this year.
    But I am now 11 stone 13 and just back in my size 12 clothes.

    My ultimate goal weight is 10.5 stone, but I will be happy to be back at 11 stone again, which was the weight I was before I stopped smoking.

    Good luck to you all in reaching your goals and feel free to add me :)

    Hello All,
    Just joined team uk, but have been using MFP for a little over a week now.
    My height is 5' 7"
    Age 50
    Start weight was 12st 7lb
    Weight as of Friday 12st 3lb
    Dress size is a very good 14 teetering on a 16


    My aim is to get down to somewhere between 10.5 and 11 stone and back to a size 12, back to the days when clothes shopping did not feel so traumatic.

    I understand your concern, but before I had kids I was a healthy 9 stone 8. I don't think my goal of 10 stone is too low for me at 5'9? :smile:

    It's whatever you feel comfortable with. I've noticed a couple of people on this thread who are the same dress size as me but are also shorter and heavier. We all carry weight differently, goes to show the scale isn't everything. My weight has always seemed to take up more space than other people's. People of the same height and weight (at whatever stage I was at) always took a couple of sizes smaller in clothes than me. I'm small boned, tiny hands and feet, I guess that's why. They probably have more muscle too, I'm working on that :smile:

    I'm 5 ft 7, weigh 144 lbs, am 27 and a size 12.

    I'm not looking to lose a load of weight just want to lose a few pounds and tone up a lot more coz seem to carry all my weight round my belly, hips and thighs. I lost a stone before joining this site but my jeans don't feel much looser so trying to do sit ups and stretching combined with loads of walking.

    I have a really small bone structure so I'm thinking maybe I should be aiming to get down to the lower end of the healthy bmi scale. :)

    I'm 28 years old, 11st 8lbs. Too chubby for size 14 but not quite a 16 either. 5'6".
    I am determined to lose a stone or a stone and a half healthily, I'm sick of feeling flabby and have tried and failed to lose weight since my first daughter was born 4 years ago. I'm determined not to give up this time!

    I'm 5' 6" and currently 10stone 3lbs. Pretty happy with my weight but could do with a little toning and maybe a few more pounds off.

    I wear a size 12 but as I'm pear shaped can often wear a 10 on my bottom half.

    Hi, I'm 64, 5' 7", size 12, weighing 9st 2lbs...lost all of 3st with weight Watchers, which I started April 2009. Got to target weight in April 2010. Living in Norfolk, just keeping up with things on this site!

    i'm 24 years old, 5 foot 6, 14 stone 12lb and a size 16- 18 (would say i'm a perfect size 17 at the mo, if that existed!)

    started in feb, 17 stone 4lb and a size 22

    First goal is to get to 12stone where i'll hopefully be a smallish size 14

    And I'm 50, 5'7" and weigh 14stone 10pounds. Am in a size 16 with the (very) occasional 14.

    My goal is 12stone 7pounds and then I'll re-think, I want to fit into size 12/14 clothes again with ease. I've a big bust with a small back and my waist is small in comparison to my thighs so finding some clothes to fit is a bit of a nightmare at the moment!

    I was just under 11stone when I got married and my size 12 wedding dress had to be taken in (those were the days!!), but people said I looked too gaunt!

    It's so strange reading through everyone's statistics and seeing the vast difference in weight vs what size clothes are being worn, I suppose it all depends on build.

    Good luck with the weight loss everyone!
