5'5 people out there... what is your goal weight??

I'm 5'5. I currently weight 127. According to the BMI index i'm currently in a healthy weight range. This day and age everybody strives to be thin, unfortunately I also fall into such category. I wish to weight 120. I'm just wondering people out there who are my height... how much do you wish to weight and what are your current weight.

Thanks so much!

I saw you,re pictures on Myspace and you look underweight. Please be carefull.. it's very unhealty to lose an other 10lbs...

well superduper, dont worry about lose, just tone up your muscle. screw what "thin" is supposed to be and just go by what the Bmi says, if it says your healthy, then dangit your healthy.

Megandeth heh, you look fine to me, i saw your pics on myspace and you look too thin anyway, you would probably feel worse after losing 10 more pounds. trust me, if anything you should be gaining weight back.

I'm between 5'5" and 5'6".  I currently weight 177 and would like to be 150.  That's the weight my doctor suggested for my large frame.  I started at somewhere 240+.  I don't know exactly because I didn't own a scale.

I'm around 5'4-5'5.. currently 141 lbs, I want to get to about... 128-130lbs  At the weight I am now I'm considered "healthy" in the BMI thingy

I am almost 5'5, currently 149lb, want to be 135lb or less. I wish I could be 120lb, but I have never achieved that after high school. My lowest is 124lb after the college. Well, I will be happy if I am around 130+. I don't think 120lb for 5'5 is underweight. As a matter of fact, my sister is 5'4 and weights 109lb. She is a healthy aerobic teacher and looks fabulous.

i'm 5'4 and I've weighed 100 when young..... and i've also weighed 171 and to me I was at my happiest at 120.  I think that's the perfect weight for me and i'm medium frame

I am 5'5" and currently weigh 118.  120 was my goal weight when I originally started dieting and exercising, I then weighed 154.  I would say that I am a medium frame...

My first thought was Oh Please!  Come on, you guys thought that too...but I would first ask what your build is like, are you "small, med. or large framed"?  If you are small framed 120 might be ok for you.  I am 5'4'' and medium to large framed and when I weighed 125 I looked sick, unhealthy sick.  My ideal is somewhere between 135-145 which is my goal.

I am 16 and  5'5"1/2 currently 120 pounds.  Goal weight is 113. I'm not really sure what my frame is... i don't think i appear to be small framed but everyone says i am because they can easily wrap their hand around my wrist, is there any other ways to find out?

I'm 5'5 1/2" and I currently weigh around 148.  My goal is to get to 135 lbs...possibly a little less.  I want to see how I look & feel before I lose anymore that that... I don't want to lose my curves.  I think goal weight also depends on your age.  I am 47 and being 120 like I used to be would not look good at my age.  If you're younger, it is fine.

5'5, 24yrs old.  Current weight 167lbs but already a size 8.  Honestly, I would love for someone to tell me how I am at this size, but the weight I am at is quite unhealthy.  Trying to work towards 130lbs.  Hubby loves my curves, too.  Trying not to lose too much of my girls or my butt!

On CC for 2 weeks and lost about 2.5 lbs.

SAME AS ME!!! I am down to 164 from 178 and I am a size 8.  I guess we just hold it well!  My goal is to get down to about 130 as well

5'5' and currently 124 lb

body structure - small framed apple shape

body fat - whopping 26.6% ...basically no muscle

my goal is to get to about 110-115...whatever magic weight it takes to lower my bodyfat to about 17-18%

how im doing it: 1200 cal diet, heavy weight training/circuit training 3 x/week for 1 hour sessions; spinning 3x/week 45min-1 hour; and another cardio session 1x/week for an hour

I'm 5'5" and I currently weigh 139. I want to weigh under 135, and maintain between 130-135. I guess you could say I'm losing vanity pounds at this point, but they're the hardest to lose. I think frame size is important when determining what weight is best for you. I have a medium frame so 130-135 is a reasonable weight.

 Im here with you girls too!!

down to 161 ..i dont really know what I would look like any lower, but my goal is 130!!! 143 puts us in healthy bmi range, so i want to see what that looksl like first, and then work on the vanity pounds!

but i definately dont want to lose my curves!! I love them, and my body shape makes me look smaller than i actually am (according to everyone i have the courage to tell my weight to.. lol)

I am 5'5.5 and 140 lb. I would like to be between 130 and 135. But more than that, my body fat % is 26% and I would love to get it down to 22%.
