    I am 5'8" and would like to weigh 135 in the end. My first goal though is to be at 150. That puts me in a 10 and that is where I was back to before having my 2nd son. 135 is where I was when I was in my early 20's. Somewhere in between there would be good too if that is where my body wanted to stop.

    I'm 5'6 with a goal weight of 140 - lower would be great, 145 would be okay. Thanks for the frame size calculator. Good luck with your goal!

    I am 55, and 5'8 pushing 5'9 I currently weigh 171 pounds and am aiming for 140. I have been rail thin most of my life and gained weight in my mid forties to date. Yes I am that 115 pound woman who ate three times as much as everyone else and did not gain weight. Truth be told I was to thin. I was tested in my thirties for hormone problems and thyroid function, both were fine. I have always been very physical, did a lot of hard work, and came from a tall thin family. I have good shoulders, a small waist, and unfortunately the hips to balance my shoulders out. I am fairly muscular as my work and activity level require it but it is all clothed in that layer of fat. I wear size 12.

    Good luck everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am 5'7" 44 years old and currently stuck for 2 months at 177:grumble: . I am shooting for 160 pounds although I should probably change that to 150. I was 150 for many years and was very comfortable at that weight it is still considered a little high for my height but it felt right to me.

    I'm only 5'4 and there's no diet or willpower that will ever change that :frown:

    well i'm 5'11 and hope you dont mind me joining.
    currently at 205 but would love to get to 160, but i fear i may start looking a bit odd. I really just want to be happy in my own skin.
    have tried so many times but with no real success,
    i have always played lots of sport and will never be the skinny one but with mfp and the support on this site i hope to.
