    I'm 5'5". I am big boned and have a large bust, so I'm not sure where to set my goal. I remember in high school gym class they told us that we should weigh 100 lbs for the first 5 feet, then 5 pounds for every inch taller. That would mean I should be 125. At the time that seemed both unreasonable and impossible and it still does. I'm shooting for 145 - 150 and when I get there I'll see what it looks like and adjust accordingly. I think that's probably about what I weighed as a teen ager, but I don't really remember. I just remember always feeling fat.

    I'm 5'3 and am 163 at the moment. My goal is to get back to my pre-baby weight of around 125ish, give or take a couple of lbs.

    I am almost 5'3 and I currently weight 140. I would love to get down to 115-120 hopefully with some muscle.

    I'm 5'4" and would be content at 140. However, 130-135 would be even better. :-)

    Hi, all! I'm a smidge under 5'4", currently 191, and my current goal is 140. I'm guessing that would put me in a size 4 or 6, depending upon how much of that is muscle.

    At my healthiest and most active, I weighed around 125, but that was when I was in my late teens. In my early 20s, I was very happy at around 130. I figure now that I'm in my mid-30s and post-baby, 140 is a sensible goal.

    When I start to approach that goal, I'll see how much further down it makes sense to go. Who knows? I may get back to 125 and my size 4 frame some day! :bigsmile:

    I'm 5'4" currently 126lbs, goal is 115lbs. I am small in frame structurally so I can get away with being between 105 and 110lbs but I am having a really hard time dropping any weight right now due to stress or too few calories...not sure what's going on.

    I'm 5'5
    CW 192lbs
    GW 160lbs

    Have thyroid issues that has been a challenge for me over the last year. I was 180lbs for about 5 years then I went up to 205lbs over a period of a month.... GRRRRR. Hopefully, I can master my hormone issues to lose the extras and get back into the clothes in my closet!

    I'm 5'4 and my goal is 115. My whole family is thin, except me. I'm a "belly heavy" 135 now, and just want to get back to being toned, and fitting into a size 6. A good pre-baby weight for me

    I also think it depends on your age. I am 49, 5'3", and 160 would be comfortable for me.
