Well, I am not a woman so all my info is based off my wife but sounds like you two share the same build type, she is 5'7" though. She has gone from 230lbs to 160lbs and I have to say that at 160 she looked great, size 8-10, and she felt good too. Personally I would shoot for 160ish and go from there. She also took about 8 months to go from 230 to 160, however that was with DRASTIC life changes. She went from a sedetary life eating what she wanted to a good diet, and exercised a lot during the day (counting cleaning the house and such as a workout, so not always hitting the gym). If you stuck to a good plan you should be able to loose 2-3 pounds a week. My wife also experianecd a significant weight fluxuation as each "cycle" passed so don't get discourgaged if your weight goes up due to female stuff, it will come back down quick! So give it about 8 weeks and you should be around 160 and then I would re-assess your goals, that is what my wife did!
Hope that helps a bit! and GL!
