5'8" ladies what is your goal weight?

I'm 5'8" and just wondered if I'd set a realistic goal for myself, I'm currently a UK size 18 having dropped from a UK size 20, my goal is to be a UK size 10 weight 9st 6 lbs or 132lb or 59.87kg

I've already bought myself a pair of lovely gap jeans in my goal size as incentive on dark days x

I'm 5'8", started at 215 pounds. I am now 174 pounds. To be in a healthy BMI I would need to be 164.4, so I'll see what I look like then. I weighed 155 in HS and thought I was fat, but 3 kids later and my body has changed, so I think my ultimate goal is 160 pounds, also I have a large frame and very muscular.

I'm sitting at 132, started at 150. I'm kinda wishy washy on where I'd like to be. Maybe between 130-135 and call it good.

I'm 5'8" and my goal is 145lbs. I'd love to get down to 140 and maintain from there with a bit of a cushion. The heaviest I've ever been is 167. I'm 151 right now. I have a small frame so don't carry weight particularly well.

I'm 5'9" and GW is 135

My goal is 160

I'm 5'8, 160lbs and my Gap size 10 skinny jeans could be tighter ...

Calorie defecit and lift heavy

My ultimate goal is 155 but currently I am just aiming for 165 to see how I feel. I do not however want to go to much lower than 150 because my clavicle starts making me look like Skeletor

I'm planning on cutting down to 130 and then doing a slow bulk up to 140 before probably another cut. I'm 154 right now. I have a small/medium frame, and maintained 120-130 until my thirties.

I'm 5'8", small frame. I reached goal (138 lbs.) last year, have fluctuated by five pounds (up!) and still my US size 4s are loose. Sometimes I get a 2 if I can find them.

5'8", 160, size 8 US mostly. 160 was my goal, but I might go down 5-10 more.

5'8'', initial goal is 160, but I think I might reevaluate that to 145-150 once I get there.

I already lost a lot off my belly and waist, but my thighs are losing sooooo slowly. It's so hard to find jeans that fit nicely right now!

5'8. Goal is 65kg but re-evaluation point is 70kg, which was my lowest "adult" weight and which, at the time, I thought was fat. I'll be interested to see what I think when I get back there.

I'm 5'8.5. I think that aiming for 9 stone 6 is okay but you wouldn't want to go any lower - at 59kg (about 9 stone 6) I was often asked if I had an eating disorder. I think that you may find it hard to maintain that weight and eat healthily, but you can see how you go. You don't need to be that low to look good and be healthy. I think that you need to try not to be too rigid. I had to get below 55kg before I was a size 8 (NZ same as UK but not US). Good luck!

I'm 5'8" and I'm currently 132 and am going to switch to maintaining soon once I get back to 130. I've always weighed around 130 except when I was underweght (and starving myself) and for the one semester when I ate four bagels a day and gained 12 pounds.

Um, 58kgs for someone who's 5'8? That's very...low.

165 or so. When I was that weight I fit in a size 10-12 with a few size 8 that were generous. When I was that weight I still wanted to lose 10 more but when I look back at pictures I now think I was thin enough so that is what I am aiming for.

Very interesting, I hope my journey goes well. A week ago I was nagging my hubby about how much weight I have added n how I have been waiting for him to work out with me, but he categorically told me I can do it n it's my journey so I should not wait/ involve/ depend on anybody.i was very mad but started MFP immediately. Today I have already lost 2kg meeting my 10000 steps challenge, exercising,eating healthy and consciously:)

I'm sure at 5'8" you'd be a UK 10 and a higher weight!
I'm a UK 8-10 and 9 stone 2 (128 lb) and i'm a 5'3.5 shortie.
Out of interest, how did you get 9st 6?

I used to weigh 9 st 6 and I am 5 8. I was a size 8 - 10. To be honest I think it depends on your bone structure etc.

169 for me. I just want to get out of the 170's.

My goal weight is 174lbs.
