I'm 5'5, 128 lbs, but I'm very athletic so I've got lots of muscle (also some fat :tongue: ). My goal is to be around 125, get a flat stomach, and lose my love handles!
Now I wanna hear all of your goals! :smile:

    5'4, 152.6 lbs. My goal is to get strong and have a muscular/toned build. I like the way people with this body look, and older people with these kinds of bodies don't look as old as they actually are and thats what I want to be like.

    I am 5'5 and 149. I really want to be 130. It's tough because I have hypothyroid and I think I almost have to burn twice as many calories to loose. Like last week I had an 8000 cal. deficit and only lost 6oz. It's a process, I just want to get there. i really would like to get rid of my belly from having kids and my love handles. Oh and some toned arms won't hurt either.

    5ft 4- first goal weight of 135lbs and then if I still see room for improvement, 130lbs. The last 5 lbs would be less intense though.

    I'm 5'5" and 57 years old. I realistically want to no longer be obese (so get below 180) and I dreamingly would like to weigh 150. I know when I weighed 141 in my late 20s I was too thin (you could see my ribs and all the veins and tendons in my arms and neck). How is that possible? Jugs for days. ; )

    I'm 5'5" and I'm just under 170 lbs. My goals are to be fit enough to get my 2nd degree Black Belt in Shotokan Karate next year and to feel good.

    5'6", when I was younger, I felt good at about 140. Gained weight in Iraq & never lost it, then another 10 lbs from pregnancy -- up to 165. I'm now back down to 145 (and dropping), but my body fat percentage is too high, so I'm focusing more on that than weight right now. Once I get the body fat percentage down to a reasonable range, I'll see how I feel. Not really sure what my end goal is!!

    I'm about 5'3.5-5'4. My ultimate goal is 111, but I'll see how I feel when I hit around 120-125.

    5'6" (maybe a little closer to 5'7", actually), 154.4 lbs. My goal is to get to 140 lbs. Realistically, I'd like to stay permanently between 135-140 and tone up so I'm not so "soft".

    5'4": My goal is to be a size 8, around 140 pounds. I'll see if those two numbers correlate when I lose a bit more weight! :) I've never been a size 8 to my knowledge before.

    I'm 5'4, and I'm a few pounds from my goal weight. My goal, in addition to reaching that weight, is to have a flat belly and non-jiggly legs and arms, and 20% or less body fat. :blushing:

    5'4"
    goals are:
    muscle defiinition
    20% body fat
    that is pretty much it. If I stay at 150lbs and I have 20% bf I'd be fine with that. But I'm guessing I'll end up a little lower weight. Doesn't matter when I think about it hard, but it is difficult to remind myself of that during the process.

    5'5 a toned 170lbs is my goal. Even though articles say a healthy weight for my height is 130lbs but I can't picture it. Not going any less then 150 lbs (personal preference of course).

    Good luck to you :drinker:

    Great goal! It's all about decreasing that fat percentage!!

    I'm the same height as you but was 222 and I would love to be 122. My doctor said that might be too thin so you give me hope! I've had 4 children though and I'm almost 40 but I also have fibromyalgia so it's been a tough first month for me. You are an inspiration! How much exercise do you normally do a day and how many calories? I not only want to lose the weight but I want to be strong and feel like I have some type of energy! If any of you guys would like to add me as a friend, send me a request! :flowerforyou:

    I am just about 5'5 and want to be under 130. 125 would be freaking awesome but probably wont happen since I have an athletic build. My goal is too tighten up my abs!

    I'm 5'4 and my goal is 130. I have more of a "look" (I WANT TO SEE ABS!) so it will probably change...I just needed a "goal weight" for my ticker lol.
