I may go lower than 175, just to give me room for holiday eating. I gain weight easier than I lose it. I love to cook and to eat, so giving myself a leeway is good.
I'm at 5'-10" and 185 lbs. I have a wider upper frame (shoulders). I should be somewhere between 170 and 175 to look like someone who is into fitness. I'll settle for 175. Considering I'm a foodie, I'm not complaining.
5'4 looking to get to 135lbs. I weigh around 157lbs. It's difficult because I'm on a few medications that hold water retention and make you gain.
That's my goal too. 5'4 weigh 159 hoping for 135-140. 53 years old and dealing with menopause weight gain, I guess that's where it's coming from, it all seems to be in my middle the dreaded spare tire.
I weighed 190 last April. Dropped down to 155 by August. My goal was 170 but when I kept losing weight without trying really. I can program my body to gain or lose weight after a couple of weeks of eating wrong or right.
I felt good at 155, doing the most pullups and pushups I've ever done. However, I felt tiny...lost my mass and friends were telling me I looked too skinny. Went from a large to a medium.
So, I decided to gain 10 pounds last month on purpose and gained a quality chuck of my mass back and I can do nearly the same amount of pullups...15 pullups compared to 18. My slim fit larges fit properly on me again so I'm happy about that. I do miss being a 30" waist, I'm around 31 1/2 right now. Working on getting back down to 30" without losing any weight...planking away like a madman!
For those trying to lose weight, the single biggest tip: eat fat-free yogurt
I use that hand held thing in the gym. I know it's not giving me an accurate number, but as long as that number goes down over time, then I know I am going in the right direction. I have lost 3 percentage points this year, hope to get that to 10 by the end of the year...
5'3", optimum target weight 135, satisfactory target weight 140. I use the hand-held thing too at the gym. Agreed with Aussy on the accuracy -and- the general point of using it. I went from 37 to 29 so far. Who cares what it's actually measuring. The number is improving, and that's what matters most.
