That's a great chart! So 150lbs at my age (47) would be very realistic. Thanks!

Personally I'd love to get down to 165, so I would have lost half my body weight. But I would be happy under 200, anything is better than 331! I'd love to be a size 10 pant and a medium-large top. As long as I feel good, I'll be thrilled!

Thank you for sharing this!! This is very helpful! I am scheduled for my sleeve on March 9 and I am turning 40 in November. Iam currently 5'6 and 245lbs. So it was good to see that according to this chart my goal weight of 160 would be considered healthy! Thanks for posting ????????

I am 5'4" and originally my doc said around 135-140. I explained to him that I would be more comfortable with 175 he settled for 165.

So right now I am shooting for 175lbs, and anything below that will be Great!! I just like that right now my tickers reads that I have lost MORE weight than I have left to lose.

5'5" and weigh 161. Want to get to 148 to be in normal bmi range. Then have plastics and hopefully finish around 140.

I am 5'3 1/2'' and I hope to get to 140. I am at 230 now and losing very slowly. I have only lost 25 lbs since surgery on Nov 17, 2014. Is anybody else losing this slow?

Love this chart. I'm 5'4", and I am calling it good at 165. I really wanted to be 145, but I can't seem to get there, and at 52 years old, size 8/10 pants and sm/med tops, I think I'm good where I am. This chart made me feel good about that, lol.

5.5 and 1/2. My surgeon didn't set a goal but I go back on Thursday and I'm going to ask. Just had surgery on 2/9. My personal goal is 170.

[samuelsmom 670]

My big goal is to get to the one hundreds. After that, my goal, also at 5'5," around 150-175. Since I have a ways to go I'll wait until I am closer to set a firm goal.

@@UK Cathy, thanks for the chart. I'm 50 years old and 5'5". My surgeon hasn't given me a goal, but I have a personal goal for 30+ years of weighing 148. It's the weight I was able to get down to once in my late teens and for a very short time when I was 24 (was working out like a fiend for work). My surgery is set for February 26th and I'm excited to keep losing weight.

I'm 5'2, starting weight 254 and goal weight is 140

[CowgirlJane 14,259]

Be careful not to compare yourself to others...different body types etc. I weigh heavier on the scale than people think I am based on looks/size. I am your height, my goal is 158. I got as low as 140 but I weigh about 155 right now and looking and feeling great.

5'7" and 52 years old-Doctor's goal is 160, My goal is 150. Had my sleeve on 11/3 and am currently 191. I told Dr. I'd be at 160 when I see him on May 5th, and I think I can do it--with your support, of course!

[stephh 634]

I'm 26, 5'5", and have three goals:

My top goal is 170. I feel like this is easily obtainable for me and am almost there! Just a little under 25 pounds to go.

My real goal is 145. It's at the top end of a healthy of BMI and in the healthy weight range.

My stretch goal is 131.7, which is half of my starting weight. I just think it would be cool to say that I way 50% of what I did!
