Quest4TheNewMe 225 Posted February 11, 2015 I'm 5'4". MY goal is 150, my surgeon's goal is 175. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lovedXJesus 27 Posted February 11, 2015 I am 5'5. I would love to be around 145. But I am afraid that won't likely happen at my age. LOL My surgeon never set a goal weight for me, but I would be content at 160 I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluesclues 49 Posted February 11, 2015 My goal is 130. A bariatric doctor I saw said I would probably get to 120. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mae7365 372 Posted February 11, 2015 My goal is 140 (top of the recommended normal weight for 5'4" female). My doctor never gave me a goal. I see him again in March and I plan to ask what he expects as far a goal weight. I know most surgeons are hesitant and always say things like "it all depends on the person" etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comeflywithme 402 Posted February 11, 2015 I'm 5'4 and my goal weight is 164, I have 16 more lbs to go -- it's really tough losing these last few pounds but I WILL do it and I am in no rush. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gibble 28 Posted February 11, 2015 Because of other medical problems, results of many years of being over weight, and my age my goal is 150, My surgeon set my goal at 180 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thick2thin 33 Posted February 11, 2015 I'm 5'5" (actually 5' 4 1/2") and my current weight is 226. Goal weight is 130. But I would settle for 145. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Healthy_life2 8,324 Posted February 11, 2015 5'5" goal weight is 140. Reached goal and trying to get to my personal goal of 130. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peki31 37 Posted February 12, 2015 I'm 5'5" (almost) my goal weight is 150 as of right now. I want to be happy with what I see in the mirror, not the number. I am thinking that even 150 might be too low for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikrchk 1,313 Posted February 12, 2015 I'm an inch taller at 5'6" but my original goal was 135 pounds, (would have been an even 100 pound loss and put me smack in the middle of healthy BMI). I got to 140 and decided it was "enough" and raised my goal range to 135-145. I can wear a size 4 skinny jean comfortably and hang out between 140-142 most of the time. It's all good.

Babbs 14,681 Posted February 12, 2015 I'm barely 5'5" and a little older, so I want to be realistic and say 150. I may go 145 for a little cushion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luvin_Life125 558 Posted February 12, 2015 I am 37 years old, 5'5" and my goal is 140-150. I started at 262, and after 3 months I am down to 217 (-45#s). I am really hoping to make goal and think it is definitely possible. It is interesting to see the wide variety of goal weights amongst the group. I know in high school I weighed between 150-160 and was extremely active between sports, school, work, and social life. I don't know that my body is physically capable of going less than the 150 mark. If I wasn't below there as a teenager and really active, I don't know that I will below able to go beyond that point as a middle aged mom. We will see!
