I am 5'11" and hope to hit 170 lbs. I was at that weight 25 years ago and was healthy and trim. I weighed 150 lbs 45 years ago but was not well and was having stomach issues ( also only 20 years old).

I'm 5'8" and my goal is 165-175. I'm at 190 right now and in a size 14 pants (I'm pear shaped). I'm pretty happy with the way I look now, but would love to see if I can get down to a size 10.

5'9 and started at 348lbs, 175lbs is my goal weight.

I'm 5'10 and my goal is 175 to 180. Started at 296.

I am 5' 9 1/2", I too have shrunk from 5'10". My goal is to be say 165 pounds I would like to have a small buffer from 170 pounds.

We have the same stats. And that's about what I wanna be at

I am 5'10". My surgeon says goal is 100 lbs for 5 feet then 5 pounds for every inch above that so they have my goal set at 150. Realistically I am hoping for 165.

When I asked my surgeon about a goal weight he asked me what I weighed when I was happy with my weight/looks. I'm 5'10" and for me this was 180. But I have been as low in my adult life as 160 but that was college and I was wearing a size 7. Not sure if that's realistic, I'm 40 with two kids. I will be happy in a size 12 which is about 175-180 at my frame.

OHHHH I wish!!! I can't wait!

I'm 5'11" with a goal weight of 175. I'm currently at 188, so only 13 more to go!

Hello, I'm 5'10" my CW is 177.8 my HW 304, SW 271.6 4-30-13 PERSONAL GW 185. BEING Pear shaped makes weight loss intersting for me. I waer a medium top and size 12-14 pants. But taht's still better than 2-3 x tops and 22-24 pants. So I want to slow weight loss some, a weight 171 seems great for ME.

I'm 6ft tall & my goal weight is 173. That would be a loss of 120 lbs for me. I'm down 40 lbs & 4 1/2 weeks post op.

Hi im 5'11 and will have my surgery on Tuesday. My senior yr of high school i was down to 175 or 180. And i was a size 12. I set my goal for 200. I dont want to be a bean pole either:)
