5'4 Whats Your Goal Weight?

Need some opinions.. Anyone 5'4? If so what is your goal weight. Mines is 160 but I am thinking that may be too high.. I would love to be a size 9/10 again.

    I didn't set a goal, crazy as it sounds. I got my band, followed band rules and settled in at a weight at the top end of a healthy BMI. If I wanted to work harder I could lose more, but I am not that

    I'm 5' 6" and my goal is about 160-165, but really anything under 200 would make me extremely happy.

I'm 5 r

4 my current

weight is 175 current size 12. Goal 135 back to a size 8 I hate double digits!. May 9 th can't come soon enough

I'm 5'4 and my goal that my doctor is cool with is just under 170. For my build' date=' 165-170 puts me in a 10/12. If I lose more, so be it, but I'm happy in a 10/12. If your profile image is you, make sure to stick with sizes and body fat % as there have been a few studies that show BMI isn't an accurate measurement for black women. We tend to have less fat that women of other ethnicities.

Good luck![/quote']

I so agree with this!

I'm "5.6 1/2" goal wt. us 145lbs I have a while to go my current wt. is 305lbs

I'm the same weight as you and I just want to be under 200. I always say if I look in the mirror and I'm happy and I'm healthy then that would be enough! I can't wait till my surgery day May 18th! I'm excited and watching out for everyones success!

my ultimate goal is 130 (as per BMI chart) but I am going to play it pound by pound.

We are almost exactly the same size. I'm 5'6.5" and currently weigh 310. Neat :-)

Add me too! Same height and not to far in weight. I just have not had the surgery yet. I'm excited!

I am 5 foot 3 and my first goal was 160. Got there and changed it to 140. I am at 147 and now thinking to go for 135. Never did I think I would get this low again. Just looking fwd to hit 142 and be in the normal weight range!

I didn't set a goal, crazy as it sounds. I got my band, followed band rules and settled in at a weight at the top end of a healthy BMI. If I wanted to work harder I could lose more, but I am not that motivated. My PCP would be happier if I lost 10 more, but my bloodwork is good now, so he isn't pushing too hard.

For me, getting banded was not about dieting, it was about healthy habits that I can live with. I've been maintaining this size/weight now for coming up on 2 1/2 years. I think I've found it!

I'm shooting for 140-145. I think I wore a size twelve at that weight. I'm going to set up small goals so that I don't overwhelm myself. Baby steps.....

I am 5'3" and 199 size 14, my goal weight is 135 according to bmi that would be healthy.

I am 5"4 and currently 153 pound size 9 or 10 pants. Goal which surgeon approved is 135. Once I get there I will regroup and decide if maybe want to go 5 or 10 (max) lower. Hubby keeps telling me to stop in3 pounds at 150 but i know myself and recall 130s in high school and i know i looked good at that weight (i am 38). We shall see...
