Feeling quite pleased with myself today, finally hit the stone and a half mark after just under 6 months (with a week's all inclusive holiday halfway through which set me back a bit). Originally aimed for 2 stone in 6 months but am actually feeling pretty good as I am, but how do you decide what your goal is? Have gone from a UK size 16 to a 12, but my BMI is still around the 29 mark (5 ft 2, 156lbs). Just wondered what others of a similar height are aiming for?

    I'm about the same height as you, and currently about the same weight,too. I'm aiming for about 135 because that's a weight I know I can keep. It would be nice to be less, but it's not realistic, at least not for me.

    Wow that's low, I haven't been under 10 stone since I was about 19!

    I decided at my goal because that was my weight when I was a full time yoga teacher, and I was healthy and fit and that weight.
