5'6 135-anybody out there?

I'm in my early 20s, 5'6 and 150lbs (down 5lbs already!)  with a medium frame-definitely NOT small. My goal weight is around 135. I am thrilled at the thought of being skinny!

If anyone out there has is around 5'6, has a medium frame and is or has been around 135:  what size are/were you (I know it varies)? Anybody with pictures?

I'm just anxious to lose and would like an idea of what I heading for! Silly, yes...but whatever.

I'm 5'7" and 134# - is that close enough?

My picture (it's small in my gallery) is uploaded - a bit hard to see; taken this year (I'm 65 years old).

I've been so underweight for so much of my life, I've refused to have my picture taken very often.

I think you'll like 135# - possibly (based on your bone-structure) you'll like between 128 and 130 even better (my doctor has counseled me all the way, so he gives me a 'range', not a specific number).

Hey so I realize this post is a few days old but I'm 5'6" and about 128.  But I have a small frame, so it's probably comparable to what you'd be at 135.  I like 2 current pics on my profile, i hope you're not disappointed though cause I'm not skinny haha.

i HAVE like 2 current pics*   

It really depends on your shape, muscle tone and general build as to what size you will wear. I fluctuate between 133-136 (I drink a very high amount of water and frequently retain water so my weight is very dynamic). I am apple shaped and have relatively lean limbs, small chest and bum and a nice amount of fat in my abdomen. Last time I had my body fat tested it was 20% and is probably higher now (I was under 130 then- about three months ago).

I wear between a size four and six and a small in normal shops and a medium in shops for hussies. The nice pair of jeans I have are a 28.

I'm 5'6", medium frame with a figure, currently 165-7.  My goal weight is somewhere between 145 and 135. At 145 I wear size 12, and 135 maybe size 10.

well right now i am 5'6 166 and wear a size 10/12....when i was thinner throughout highschool i was 125 and a size four. so i would imagine that based upon your body you would be about a size 6 give or take a little?

Hi...I'm 43 y.o. 5'6" and 146 today.  Started out at 156 and wearing a snug size 10.  My goal weight is 130 (which I've been able to maintain most of my adult life until this past year).  At 130 I wear a size 6.

 It's sad to see that I've gained 25 pounds in the last year.....how does that happen?

Hi!

I am actually right there ! I'm 22, 5'6 and ab out 136 pounds!

I am medium frame as  ;well. I have very small& nbsp;wrists and it seems  thin bones but my frame&n bsp;is medium for sure, l ike the width of my  shoulders etc.

I wear a 29" waist&n bsp;and usually a medium  size top.

I am hoping to get t o 130 and try to los e my gut cause thata  ;where i seem to carry&nb sp;my weight.

Anyways good luck with ev erything!!! 

I am 5'6, 130-132 down from 179 a year ago. I believe that I have a medium frame. I am small wasted with thicker legs and arms, but overall I believe I have an hourglass shape. i wear anywhere from a 4 to a 7 depending on the store.

For me I think that I will be most comfortable at about 125, with a lower body fat percentage. Def. important the body fat, because in clothes I look really small, but with them off I can see all of the jiggle. so my primary goal is to focuse on building lean muscle mass and if I get to 125 great.

I started here Jan 2, 08 at about 145ish and have lost 10lb, so I'm currently 135lb, w/ about 20% body fat (getting my body fat down was my main goal, not weight loss). My ideal goal is 125lb but I'm shooting for an extra 5lbs and I think I'll be happy. I'm also 5'6" and have a medium frame (I have a wide rib cage, well I think it is, so I will never look skinny). I have some pics on my page.

I think clothes sizes vary rfrom store to store, but I did just buy some summer clothes in size 6 (which is huge for me since I was wearing an 11 at 145) and tops in size small. I liek to go by measurments though. MIne are as follows:

Natural Waist - 27", Stomach (at belly button) - 31.5", Hips - 36.5", Thighs at largest point - 21", Calves - 14.5" and arms -12"

Baylward, we're almost twins. I'm about 133 right now (5'6") and also have a wide rib cage so I'm readjusting my initial goal of 120 for about 125-28, because I don't want my ribs to be any more obvious than they already are. I wear a size 4 pant now (6 in certain stores) and a small top. But I live in Europe so the sizes are all screwy over here and make me feel huge, even at this lower weight! What can you do.
