Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I am 5'3" and I think my ideal weight is 115-120. I am 125 now. 5 more pounds would be nice, but I am happy now and as long as I am toned and my clothes fit, which they do, I am happy. The numbers don't mean that much.



I'm the same height and weight, and I agree, 5 fewer pounds would be good, but I am fine where I am. I am bottom heavy, so I tend to wear a larger size than I think others do with my weight and height (I am a 6/8), but I have small shoulders and upper body (minus chest), so that kind of balances it out.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'7" my goal is what I was in HS 150 but I was VERY muscular and wore an 8 or 10.

I would love to get back to that possibly even below, maybe 140. I'll be happy to wear a size 8 or 10. (Currently moving down to a size 12)

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'2" and my ideal weight is 130 - 135
I'm short, but I have a fairly large frame, big boobs and a solid build - so anything less than that and I don't look 'right' -

I need to lose about 40 lbs. - But now that I'm PG, I'm just concentrating on not GAINING over 15-20

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'7 and my personal happy weight is about 165. It's a little higher than the high side of normal for most but I'm a size 10 at that weight.

I'm not there, but I hope to be someday. I've done it before, I can do it again.
I would love to be at that weight before I get pregnant (knock on wood)

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I am just under 5'6" and my body seems to want to be at 130. I like myself at 125 but when I get to 125 people start thinking I have an eating disorder (my Mom specifically)...I just have the body type that I can look either too skinny or overweight within a window of about 10 lbs.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'4 and I don't know what my ideal weight is....I guess around 105-112.

I'm currently 105 lbs. (yay....5 months after having a baby!!! And I gained a lot during my pregnancy, probably around 50 lbs...but lost most of it due to stress and health issues after the baby).

However, I did loose those last 10 with running. I don't think you'd every say I was 105 lbs. if you saw me, you'd probably guess more because I have big boobs (Ds!!!!) So, the number of my scale doesn't really represent what I look like.Chat Icon

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I am 5'-4 1/2" tall. My ideal weight is 125-128. I am 129-130 now. I want to be 125-128 with my old body of 13% body fat pre pregnancy. I don't know what it is now, but I know it is not where I want it to be!

I need to get back into my weight training hardcore! unfortunitely, I have my tendonitis issues to deal with first.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I really don't go by weight and haven't actually weighed myself in a long time. Now that i'm working out more I know i've gained muscle, which weighs more.

I'm 5'2 and have mostly always been between 105-110. Around my wedding I was too thin, probably a few under 105... my ideal weight is what I am at now, which I couldn't even tell you!

I am 5'6 and my personal ideal weight would be 120lbs.



lol

I am 5'6" and my ideal weight is bet. 145-150.

I am slightly above that right now and looking to whittle my way back down.

anything less and I don't look good.



Same here. I have some lbs to lose. Chat Icon

I have a medium-large frame though. Broad shoulders and wide hips, the lowest I can remember being in my adult life is 135 and my mom and a friend both told me I looked too "bone-y"

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 4'11 and 110. I would love to be 100lbs but I'd have to starve myself to get there. I also have a history of restricting and over exercising so my doctors watch me carefully when it comes to weight loss and gain.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I am about 5'6" and I think for my body type I look & feel best around 130-135. I'm not there right now.. I have about 25 lbs to lose to get to that point.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I am 5'4 and my ideal weight is probably 118-120ish. I'm about 125 right now, but was in my ideal range 2 months ago for my wedding. I just haven't really been making an effort to eat healthy or work out... and I could definitely tone up some.

My all time high was about a year ago... I was at 130ish. I hate the way I look in pictures -- my face looks all bloated. Yuck

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'7" and I'm a strength training freak so I really can't go by weight. I'd just like to be a size 4, I'm a 6 right now. I know you all proably think that's crazy and in any other profession I'd be fine, but there's definitely pressure to be perfect where I'm at.

I am 5'5 & would say my personal ideal weight is 145 (which I was for my wedding) This usually puts me in a size 8/10 & that is ideal for me



This is the same for me too. I'm above this, but I'm trying hard to get back down. I'm currently lusting after a skirt so that is my inspiration right now.

I am 5'4" and my ideal weight is 110lbs which is what I got married at.



Chat Icon
I'm 5'4" & I've never weighed 110 lbs in my adult life!

I was about 135 in HS & thought I needed to lose weight, but I'd be thrilled now to be at about 145-150. That's a long way away though.

Basically, I'd love to be medium, and not L-XL.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

You know, when I first read this question a number popped into my head. And then I realized:

My ideal weight is 5 pounds less than whatever I currently weigh.

That's it. I'm 5'6, 142, and would love to be back at 137, where I was when I got married. But when I got married, I desperately wanted to lose 5 pounds for my honeymoon (6 weeks later). I'm "big boned" and will never be skinny skinny, so I'll always have weight to lose. And it's always 5 lbs. That's just how I am.

Re: What is your PERSONAL ideal weight for your height? Are you there?

I'm 5'6". It's hard to say what my ideal weight is because I am the lightest I have ever been. I always used to say a size 10 and happy in a 12, but now I'm a 6/8 and still looking to lose.

My goal weight is 145. I think I will look too thin if I go any lower than that. Though, I am pretty happy now at 151.somethingChat Icon
