    5'3 here and 195 lbs.

    1st goal weight is 175, 2nd goal weight is 150. final and ultimate goal weight is 130. I am going to try to get to 110-120 but I think it might be too thin for my medium frame, although I am an hourglass shape. I am pushing for being not skinny, but smaller and toned with good muscles <but not ripped>.

    I am 5'2. At 135 I wore a size 4. I would like to be there again, maybe a little less since I am in my 40's. I will wait and see how I look and feel but 135 is my goal for now.

    5'3 here! Not going for weight but going for the golden hip/waist ratio. Although according to the program I am doing a person my size hits that ratio between 107-135!

    I am 2 inches away so since i am 120 now I am guessing i might hit it around 114-118. But i am also happy being 2 inches away from the golden ratio..i.e. (the ultimate hourglass!). Most of the people doing the same program I am in are happy being within 1-2 inches. So I may just coast here and try working on muscular development but maintaining the hourglass.

    Some of the people I know hit the ratio at a higher rate...some lower. I like having this metric instead of solely weight. Why? Because I am sure at (I was 112 Dec,below my prepregger weight) 112 even though my weight was lower i lost the hourglass. I can look at pictures and I just wince at how I looked.

    So at 112 I look like a 10 yr old boy(so skinner not always better!). At 135 I look chubby. At 120 where I am close to the hourglass I feel and look just right! Take that scale. The shape is where it's at!

    145 is about right for my frame. The last time I weighed in the 130's my doctor thought I was anorexic. And I am 5'3".

    I'm a little over 5'3" and down to 170 from 189.
    My first goal is 145 which is where I was before I quit smoking. I'd like to get down to 120-125, though the scale is not as important to me as the size, I'd like to be a size 6, which I haven't been since I was 128 pounds before my daughter was born.
    Here's hoping I can do it.

    Im 5'2 and my goal is 140lbs from 247pounds. My idea is that i will get to that weight and then see how i feel as theres no knowing what clothes size i will be when i get to that weight. if im happy at that and can fit into the style of clothes that i like at that then ill try to maintain as i will have had a long journey to get there. if i need to modify it i wouldnt go below 126lbs.

    I'm exactly 5'3. A few weeks ago, I weighed 146 and it was just too much for my height and small frame. The healthy weight range for our height is 113 - 141. So I was basically overweight at 146. I was around 122 in college, but now that I have a child and hit the age of 30 (!), I'd like to shoot for a Goal Weight of 130.

    Mine is about 115, but only if that accounts for some muscle mass. It's a tough height to be. A little bit is a lot on a smaller frame. Ultimately it's a look I'm going for, not a number.

    I HAD a goal weight of 110 lbs being 5'2.75" and yes...I put that height into anything that uses my height to calculate things. haha.

    HOWEVER, because I lift so much, I am quite dense. I've been measuring my body fat consistently (same machine, same settings), and I have been consistently losing.

    November 2011-22%
    March 2012-20.5%
    July 2012-18.6%

    The scale hasn't move....actually...the scale has went up a slight bit. I'm stuck around 124 lbs right now, when my lowest was 121 lbs.

    I have decided to set a goal of 15% body fat. I would LOVE to see the scale go down to around 118 lbs, but if it doesn't, I'd be happy.

    There are many ways to set goals. Measurements, scale, body fat, fitness goals....etc. I have a 1/2 marathon coming up. That's one of my testing points too for fitness. I'm aiming to do that in September.

    True. Everyone is slightly different. one of my friends at 135 looks great...me on the other hand...awful.

    112, I am sickly looking, another person even with the same height looks great.

    so I am going for shape too. ) (

    Striving for the ideal hourglass. 2 inches AWAY!!! YEAH!

    I'm 5'3 and my goal weight is somewhere between 120-140. I'll know what I get there and when I'm happy with my body. I'm currently at 170, so I've got some ways to go :)
