    I'm between 5'4" and 5'5" and am at 164 right now. My initial goal was to get into the healthy BMI range, which would be under 150. I may reevaluate when I get there, but I've never been as small as I am right now, so I can't imagine what 150 will look like....

    I'm around 5'5 and am shooting for 150. This is what my doctor wants. I'm less than 10 pounds away now.

    I'm 5'5" and my goal is 140 (and that number may be higher or lower depending on how I look and feel once I get closer).

    I'm 5'6, currently 163 pounds. I gained 15-20 pounds very quickly from some medication, so first I'd like to get back down to 143 pounds or so, where I was before the weight gain. After that... I'm not sure. I'd like to be comfortable in all of my old size 6 clothes.

    By the end of this year I want to have a 34-36 inch waist. Right now I have a 38 inch waist. I am sure I can do it, I've had great results recently. I want my weight to go down but right now the scale is not changing so I'm focused on my shape.

    I am 5'6" and my goal is 125. I really really want a flat stomach. Even as a teen weighing an awkward 113 lbs. I still had a belly pooch, I want it gone!! So I guess if I weighed a little more but had finally gotten flat abs I would be happy!

    I'm 5'4", currently weigh about 135, used to be 220, and trying to get down to 105 (may stop sooner, but I still look chubby at 120).

    Haha that's so funny. I'm 128, 5'5" and athletic as well. WIth the muslce (and some fat). I just want to get that muscle tone and get down past 115 ibs... mainly because my weight fluctuates in 1 day from 123-128 (probably due to eating and water weight)

    I love that so many of you have flexible goals based on feeling healthy & fit, rather than a specific number on the scale!!!

    5'4"
    185lbs Currently
    I would Flip a Sheet to be 120-130, but 135 is my realistic goal.
    I'd like 18-20% BF

    I want to finish all the 30 day Jillian Michaels, P90 & P90X, and Insanity and become a regular runner :)

    Basically be a fitness badass :)

    I'm a little over 5'4'' and hoping to be less than 145 lb, to get to a healthy weight! I set my WW goal to lose thirty pounds, so that'd be 142.6.

    Also, non-scale goal: a size 8!

    And a two-piece bathing suit or bikini would be nice ;-)

    I'm almost 5 foot 6. I am currently 165 pounds. My goal is to be 135 by next year hopefully and re-evaluate then. I mean, I might be healthy at a toned 140 so I'm not sure. Definitely working on eating healthier and going to the gym 5 times a week.

    I'm 5'4" and still have 70+ lbs to get to my goal weight; in the 160's for starters. Then I'll reevaluate then.. :(

    I'm 5'6" and my goal is 170, probably a little more once I get there, just depending on how I feel, but I don't think that I'd really like to go below 150. Don't want to lose my curves!!

    I am 5'4 and my dream weight is 130-135... BUT I have a medium frame and a more muscular build. So, I am aiming for 145 to see how I look and feel and then try to go lower. I have a feeling that in order to stay at 130 or 135 I would have to really restrict my diet and it might be too hard to maintain.

    No way, I've never found someone with the same stats! I also have a rather large range of weight fluctuation - but I drink a lot of water so I'm not too worried. I just can't seem to lose the last couple pounds for good, lol

    I am 5'3 and over 200lbs now, will like to get healthy and get down to a weight that compliments my body. Whatever that weight is, will be determined as I go along, however I do realize I have a long road to being healthy and I am a working progress in making healthy life style change. Ideally I will love to go down to 125lbs but as I get older I realize my body is not the same as years ago, so I will know when I get healthier and fit in to the perfect dress.

    I'm 5'5" and hovering between 120-122. I'm pretty much at goal. Starting NROLFW this week to try to get some nice muscles, though.

    I m 5'6" my goal is to EAT CAKE! Just kidding, I need to build muscle, get the definition in my arms, and thighs. Those are my 2 problem areas. I have recently decided to start a cleaner diet, I usually come in around my calorie goal, and I am at a healthy weight, just need that muscle tone. Not body builder style just nice. Ya feel me?

    Haha! Cake, I wish :/ And I totally get you about the body builder style - I've been doing A LOT of weight lifting, so my arms are looking really toned, but I'm worried that the rate of arm toning is going faster than ab toning! Hopefully I DON'T turn out like a bodybuilder...

    5'3''+ My goal is to be the healthiest, leanest, toned person I can be. I not necessarily wanting to build alot of muscle or have 6-pack abs, I just want to look toned and lean. I have a small frame, so the extra weight I am carrying around isn't doing me any favors! I am half way there and the last 20+ pounds are a B@#$% to lose.

    I am 5'4" my tentative goal is 140 pounds. I am not sure if that's where I need to be I have to see what it looks like. At 14 I got on the scale and weighed 150 lbs, then I started dieting. By the time I left college I weighed 180 lbs. I know as a teen 150 was still too much, so I think it might still be the case, but only time will tell.
