How did you pick your goal weight?
| Thu, 10-14-2004 - 10:00am |
Shawnas post about struggling got me thinking about goal weight. I don't really have a "goal weight." I want to be slimmer, fitter, and wear smaller jeans (honestly I'd be happy with size 16 and jubilant with size 14).
For those of you that have a "goal weight," how did you chose it? Is it based on a weight you liked yourself at before, what your doctor said, weight/BMI tables or something else?
Just curious.

I have a goal weight of 200 but overall if I can get into a size 16 I would be happy and as well as you I would be exstatic in a 14. I am in a 20 right now and feel great but I have this old picture and I was in a 14 and I would like to be there in the long run.

Ive looked over the BMI charts and talked with my doctor about goal weight. I decided that 165 was a good weight for me since I remember being that weight when I was 19. I was healthy and looked good then. My doctor wants me below 180 at least and left the rest to me.
