I’m 5’2” and currently at 145lbs. I work out 6 days a week and eat healthy about 80% of the time. I am having trouble losing weight after 2 years of IVF. What should my goal weight be?

Question

Answer

I’m also 5’2” - used to always be 110-115 & a size 0 to 2. But once I hit 26 I went up to 145 & a size 8-10. I think some of it happens with age. I had to count calories to get down to 129 but still a size 8. Now I’m 29, 14+1 weeks pregnant & 134 pounds. Hoping to have a healthy pregnancy & once baby is born get down to 125 & a size 6-8. It’s really hard with being shorter. Good luck.

Answer

No one can accurately vote. Everyone carries their weight differently and you’d be perfectly fine in a wide range of weight since it’s YOUR INDIVIDUAL BODY COMPOSITION that matters. Ditch any obsession with your number on the scale and find out what percent of you is BONE vs WATER vs MUSCLE vs FAT to determine where improvement is needed. Weight loss comes from being in a slight calorie deficit so get your nutrition in check.

Answer

I am also 5’2” and currently 147lbs.  I feel my best when I’m 130lbs.  I was an active runner and an injury halted it a few months.  Trying to lose at least 10lbs so I can feel comfortable with my body in clothes again.  Before marriage and kids I was 125lbs.  I know I’ll never get back to that, nor do I want to because I love food too much 😂.

Answer

Don't focus so much in a "goal weight" but how you feel. Sounds like your very healthy right now.

Answer

I’m 5’2 and around 103lbs. I have a very small frame though and tiny bone structure. My best friend is also 5’2 and about 125 and looks amazing. everyone is different and has a different frame. I’d aim for something between 120-130 depending on your frame and shape!
