    I'm 5'3, 18 with a small build -- My ankles, feet, hands and wrists are TINY, and I have quite a nice hourglassy figure, but If i gain as little as 2 or three pounds I can totally tell.

    Right now I'm 117lb, UK size 8, US 4. I'm not as toned as I'd like to be, and I'd ideally like to get down to 110 where i'd feel thin, but it's not really happening at the moment.

    I'd say I have a large frame.
    I weigh 110lb. I wear a UK ladies size 6 or girls age 10/11.
    My goal is just to lose another 2/3lb and then maintain, because I think I'll be happy at that weight.
    I just turned 44 last May.
    I have one child, he's 15 next month.

    I'm 5'3.5"
    Small build
    96lbs
    Size 0, sometimes smaller but I have curves too
    Goal weight of 88
    I'm 20
    One son, he's 15 months.

    If you don;t mind me asking, why do you want to get down to 88lb? That is way too tiny for your height. I've been your current weight when I was around your age and that looked much too thin for me and I'm only 0.5" taller than you. Go easy on yourself sweety. :flowerforyou:

    - I have 2 step-chidren but no biological children.

    I'm 5'4"...

    I'm medium build.
    I currently weigh 150 (my highest weight was 252) and I wear size 6-8.
    My current goal weight is 146 but I think once I hit that I will try for 140.
    I am 39.
    I have two kids (Owen is 14 and Nolan is 9), both vaginal deliveries.

    Having once weighed in the 250s, I can honestly say that I would be fine to stay at my current weight forever, but I'm too competitive and I like the challenge of setting new goals. :)

    Because I have an eating disorder and BDD and if I don't set myself a limit, I won't stop. So 88 is my limit, no matter how fat I still feel at that weight. My lowest weight was 93. I still felt huge. That's life I guess.

    I'm 5'4" I believe I have a large frame and the reason for that is because when I weight 120, I wear a size 00 and everyone thinks I weigh only 90 pounds!
    I currently weigh 135, and started on mfp about 2 months ago at my highest non baby weight of 151..

    My goal weight is 119, just because I feel that now that I am older I probably would look a little more normal at that weight, I have no curves--I'm straight up and down no hips no butt B- sized chest, I wear around 7 or 9 in pants like I said, my waist barely curves in at all I have the same waist size as my bff who weighs 209, I just don't have the hips that match!!!

    I have 2 daughters ages 9 & 10, (both vaginal deliveries) and I was at my lightest adult weight after they were born, not before.
    I had liposuction and a full tummy tuck when my youngest daughter was 7 months old, and it was about 2 years after that that I hit my lowest weight.

    Oh, & I will be 32 next month :)

    I think I'm medium build. The wrist test thing tells me I have a large frame. I dunno. Most shirts I wear are a medium. Large if it's a button down because of the girls.

    168 pounds currently - in a tight 10 / loose-ish 12.

    Goal weight is 135-140. I think it puts me in a healthy place, and hopefully back into a size 6/8. I'm pretty curvy, so I'm cool with that size/weight. I don't care if I'm not a hardbody.

    37 years old, two kids ages 5 & 7. Finally working on losing the baby weight!

    Hiya. :)

    Small, I think. Maybe medium. I have large breasts, small waist and fat *kitten*. Typical hourglass shape, I think?
    168lbs. I wear a UK size 14/16.
    120lbs. Healthy BMI for my height and I will still retain my curves, hopefully.
    I am almost 24.
    No kids.

    - I have had 2 kids, both by c section, so have the below the belly button pooch and clothes that fit me at this weight pre kids don't fit me or don't fit the same, kids have defintely changed my body, especially in the hips/belly area

    -OK, I'm 5'3. I feel like a blimp.
    -I'm somewhere around 190- been at this for a week and am afraid to weigh myself -- I'm wearing size 14 pants
    -Forget the 115 size 4 pre-prego body. Lets start with 150 and see where we go from there.
    -34
    -6 kids. Was a waitress with the first three and dropped the pounds almost as soon as I got home from the hospital. Gained 70lbs with the twins and havent been able to lose anything after the 3mo old was born.
    -I need easy snacks I can grab on the go at work.

    Hola!

    I'm guess I'm a medium build, wear size 6-10 depending on the clothing
    I weigh 157
    Goal weight for now is 145 because I think that will be a healthy weight for me (and really I don't want to lose my boobies. With my weight gain I finally got them and I don't want to lose them! =P)
    I'm 32, going to be 33 this year
    And nope - no kids for me.

    Also, I just joined up again and am looking for buddies - if any of you ladies has similar goals. Please feel free to add me. =)

    Cheers!

    I'm a medium build
    Current weight 210 (down about 10 since this photo)
    Pants size 16, sometimes 14 now. Depends on the cut, because I have thick thighs.
    Goal weight - currently 165. I set it about 35 lbs ago. Not sure how I arrived at that number.
    I'm 35. No kids that I know of.
