5'9 or taller women

im 135ish atm...gw is 130. go for what u r comfortable with.

I am 5'9". when I was 20 I got down to 128. I worked the nursery at our church. I was asked to resign b/c people began to think that I had Aids b/c i was so thin. I want to get down to 170-168. I am a big build woman as it is. I come from a family of rather large men (my brother is 6'8" and @ 305 u can't c fat on him) I think it depends a lot on your body type. My dr says I need to be 145 which I find way to small for my body type.

160 is my goal I am 5'10....I hate skinny would prefer to be phat!

I'm 5'10" and my goal is 180. I have a larger frame and am fairly muscular.

Hey! I'm 5'9" and my goal weight is also 160. That made me nervous from the beginning. I remember being in high school and weighing 164 and being in the best shape of my life exercising 6 days a week. In my early 20's I remember weighing 174 and being very happy with the way I looked. So, 174 is my ideal weight and 164 is what the Internet tries to convince me I should be.

I'm 6'0" and my initial goal was 155 (which I hit a few weeks back) but in the meantime, I tired out a bone size calculator that someone posted on the forums and learned that I actually have a small frame. That (unfortunately) puts my ideal weight down between 138 and 151 so I'm now shooting for 150 for now and seeing how things go from there. Much as it sucked to hear I still have a way to go, it actually made sense as I wasn't feeling I was where I wanted to be even at my initial goal weight.

Good luck!

I'm 5'9" and currently 136 and about 20-21% BF. At my highest weight (preggo) I was over 200lbs and outweighed my hubby who is a skinny 6'5" . Spent some time in the 150s and 140s which was too big for my small frame - no muscle definition, double chin and squishy waist/bum. I like muscle and am aiming for 19%BF with clear muscle definition - I am guessing I will get there at around 132/133.

I am 5'10...currently weigh about 146' with 22.6% body fat last time I checked. My goal is around 130 to 135' but this is not set in stone. I have a small frame and don't naturally carry a lot of lean muscle, so even when I was down to 135 before, I was definitely "skinny-fat"

I'm 5'9 with a large, muscular frame. I'll probably stay at 180. Charts and doctors probably want me lower than that but I think I'll feel fine at 180.

I'm 5'11 and aiming for 140 (i'm 159 now), I have a very small frame and 160 is just blah for me... I used to weigh 120 which was a bit too thin looking back on it.

I don't have a goal weight. I was 160, got down to 140... now I'm trying to bulk (gain muscle) and I'm not sure how high I want to go with that. Probably just up to 145-150lbs then go back down until I look hawt. Lol. I am 5'10" and have a small frame.

Y'all are amazing!

At the doc's office, I found out that I am only 5'10" not 5'11" that I thought.
According to the doctor's scale measuring thing, my goal weight is 173 lbs. That seems like a very very far off place for my current weight of 234.4. My current goal is to take each day at a time. I am currently at the lowest weight that I've been since late high school / early college and it feels a little weird to be so low - even though, I know that I still have a lot of weight to lose before I am super duper healthy.

Happy day to you!

Well I am 5'11 and I personally think that for me right around the 200 mark is perfect. That keeps me at a size 14/16 (depending on the maker of the clothes) and I look healthy. It seems to me if I start to loose anymore, my face starts to get to skinny and I kinda look like a skelton lol and it just isn't my observation...it was notice by a few friends and family too after I had lost 90 lbs after my divorce. Sadly 5 years later I have gained it almost all back. Although this time I didn't gain it out of sadness, but bc I have an amazing man and well he just loves me to much lol

I am slowly working on loosing it again. I am so sorry to hear you don't have a great support system. I also come from a "plus size" family. Both my grandmothers were 6 ft so unless you marry into the family...you arn't small lol So I don't ever picture myself being 150-170. It might happen, but I know I am a curvy girl and I will always be on the bigger side, but for me a healthy toned weight of 200 is where I would like to be again. I have always been "big" my whole live. I was 5'10 in the fifth grade, so I am use to being who I am. If you ever need anyone to talk to I am here! I understand where you come from. But i know you can do this and I think it is great to set a goal for yourself. I say just make little goals of 10lbs and just keep an eye on how you feel and look. If you get to a point where you look at yourself and say "hmmm I look a little to thin" .. then you know where your cut off mark is. I know it worked for me.

Good luck and Best wishes!!!

I'm 5'9" at about 138-140. I'm very happy with that.

5' 10". Currently have goal weight of 180, which is my lowest adult weight -- I was that height and weight between 16 and probably 21. If I don't like where I am there, I can always shift it lower, but looking at old pics I was pretty good then. I also have a large frame, very broad shoulders, and tend to be muscular.
