Hay! 

I think I'm around 5'8...I'm not quite sure, I'm from Sweden so I use centimeters in sted :) I weigh 139lbs. My goal is 128 lbs....I Think its good to have waypoints when you wanna lose weight, otherwise it can get a bit tough...So I think that if you want to be 160lbs set a waypoint at 170 :)

Hey, I think being tall is good :)  I'm 5'8 and 175. Aiming to go to 150 - 159. But your goal 170 is bad if you are more tonned and not flabby like me :D

I'm 5'9" as well. I weigh in at around 220 lbs, but my goal is 170. I know people use this excuse all the time, but I have a larger bone structure than most women. It's true! When I was in the best shape of my life (early high school) I was around 150. So, I feel like 170 is a very reasonable goal at the age of 23. I think it just depends on your body type. And hey, if you get down to 170 and you would still like to lose more, set another goal! :)

I am 5'7" and 193lbs. In High School I was around 160 and always thought I was overweight, little did I know that was my skinny years:)

I would love to get down to 153, which I did after my 2 child was born (last time I was that weight was probably in Jr High!)

I am 31 and worry that I will become severely obese (it runs in my family), so I have to do something now before its too late.

My body is weird i weigh 197 but i dont really look it its like only certain parts of my body looks fat i know that sounds weird lol. but i guess i do have a large frame like im nott suppose to be really thin i think. i think im just suppose to be curvy.

Yeah, I'm 5'9, and currently 190lbs. Any time my weight has been around 170lbs, I've felt great and have worried a lot less about what I look like. I think it's all just about finding a weight that looks and feels right for you.

I'm 5'8" and am 170.  I have a very small bone structure though, so that's pretty over weight for me.  I'm aiming for 132.  Wish me luck!
