5'8" what is your weight

I want to be really toned Im trying out for antm  prev to i have lost 40 pounds and now i just want to get in dhape sculpt my body  currently im 142 i go up and down from 140 141 142 and its stressful maybe it is muscle tone that i am  gaining ....beats me i just wanna no what is a nice MODEL (healthy) weight???????  and what is a normal  weight or average for my height

140 is the supposed ideal weight for our height. :D I was super happy with 143 when I was really into running. I had nice abs for the first time in my life. :D

okay so would 130 135 look too smalll?

Well, my personal low was 134 and I looked like death...but I'm a big boned girl (seriously, there is such a thing, my freaking collar bone makes me look anorexic at 150 lbs) so you may be built differently.

tahst true last week the scale said for the first time 139.9 but the next day it said  141 so im like oh goodness i no my body is very porpotioned because i use to be very big breasted and when i lost my weight the first time i lost my breast  36 dd now a  32 dd and a big c up so i dont no what i would look lik ebut i would like to see ?!?!?!

I'm aiming for 155 myself... but to be honest, I actually look pretty fit at about 175... not totally toned and great... but pretty good.

I too have an ENORMOUS frame... bracelets will NEVER fit me no matter what my size... Even with a normal BMI my RING size is 10... I'm just a large girl.

Haha, don't worry about the variance of the scale. And if you feel like you could lose a couple of pounds, go ahead and try it. Just make sure that you are eating healthily and know when you are getting too thin. Ask those around you, they'll know better than you will just how healthy you look. :D Good luck!

well missbear the ppl around me now say im fine and i guess thats only becuase they saw me at my heavest and i  didnt look that big to them then so they think im crazy but every body i no that actually is fit worlks out and all thinlks its okay to tone down and loose a few inches so i guess i can count  askin my ppls out of the equation

and tamarascholtz ive been 175 and i also looked fit i guess im just trinna break into the model industry and i want to be slim but healthy

I'm almost 5' 8".  My goal weight is 145, and I'm medium framed.

I'm 5'8" and shooting for 140-145, on  a medium frame.  I'm pretty muscular, so I'm hoping I'll look pretty buff and lean at that weight.  When I graduated HS, I was 125 and looked terribly scrawny.  Not good at all. 

I'm 5' 8" and medium framed, my goal weight is 148 but I will be happy at 150 or anywhere near there.

Ever since I reached this height in HS, I've hovered around 140-145 without any problem, no matter what I ate. Now that I've had a baby (2 years ago!) I can't seem to stay at any reasonable weight and I'm not sure why.

I've given up on ever being anywhere near 140 again, I think those days are gone! The interesting thing is that whenever I lose weight, my clothes still fit, they just are more comfortable, I don't look really different, but its the way I feel that really gets altered.. I guess that is the important thing!

im deffinately not 5'8 (try 5 inches shorter! haha) but it is really nice to hear you girls talk about realistic goals and healthy weights for your heights... so congrats on having positive attitudes! :)

i'm 128 and small framed, almost no muscle, almost no breasts, and according to the doctor i'm in a good range for myself. but 140-135 is about average for our height, i believe.

See I'm 5'9", and I guess I'm relatively small framed because for me 150 is not so great. Right now I'm at 145, shooting for 130-135 with some decent muscle tone (I'm a dancer and competitive horseback rider). Bit I definitely want to keep it realistic-the anorexic skeleton look is not at all for me, I've had some close friends struggle with eating disorders, and I am very careful not to go to any extremes in dieting! nice work everyone in your progress and confidence!

orchidjuice- I think im small fram because of the finger test around the wrist it tells you to do tooo see but im 141 as of today! and it looks nice but i bet thet 135 would be rockin !

and hak1031- we are in the same boat so we can diff support one another  to hit the goal of 135 if you are down!!!!!1

I'm 5'8" and right now I'm looking pretty good at 150.  Ideally I'd lose 5 more lbs and tone up.  I have an average frame, large thighs, and no boobs.  I definitely think I would look sickly at anything less than 140.

I'm 5'8" 129 pounds. I'm aiming to tone up for summer.

I'm about 5'7" and right now I weigh about 165. For about a year or so I weighed about 135 and I looked and felt GREAT. I keep talking about wanting to be that way and my new friends tell me I'd look sickly at that weight... but I wouldn't- and I didn't!! It's so annoying and hurtful that people don't think I know my own correct weight. At 165 I feel awful, like I'm huffing and puffing all the time. At 135 I was out exercising all the time, and it didn't even feel like work..... I was lean and energetic. It's really glad to talk to people who understand that different people are best at different weights....

im 46 yo 5ft 8in 155 lbs

shooting for 145

130 waaaaay too thin

140 in high school (gymnast weight)

145 would be totally cool since i like to lift

 

 

I am 40 years old, 5 ft 9 in tall, and 145 pounds.  I have seven children, so even at this weight, there are parts of me that are saggy (LOL) but I don't think I can do much about it.  I like how I look and feel and am working to maintain...sometimes I think I'd like to get down to 138 (not sure why I like that number) but I'd probably look too thin.
