    After that, it will be a question of fine tuning where I want my Maintenance Zone to be (absolute top range 135-139 lbs, but may end up with 135 lbs as either the middle or the top end ... being 60 yrs old, I doubt I will aim as low as the charted dead-centre of Normal Zone for my height (BMI = 20), which would be 124 lbs.

    ....

    Hi @BMcC9 !
    Congratulations on all that you have accomplished!

    I believe the normal range for BMI runs from 18.5 to 24.9. And I have read that many doctors recommend not going below 20.

    So I set my GW to BMI = 22.5.
    3.4 to 4.4 lbs to go :D
    Down ~ 74-75.

    Please let me know if I’ve got this wrong!

    You didn't get it wrong, I just mis-remembered the factor I don't pay as much attention to.

    124 lbs (for me) is actually BMI = ~ 22. It is still the dead-center and recommended target of my Wii Fit Plus weight-tracking exergame, and I still think it might be a bit low for me, given my time of life.

    When setting each 1 lb mini-goal target, always first thing in the morning, I register the "a good (final) weight for you" poundage but don't really register the equivalent BMI number. I just let the program worry about that part.

    When I posted the above (in the evening) I THOUGHT I remembered that "20" was mid-zone. This morning I met my current mini-goal, and while setting the next one, realized the mistake.
