    You have no right to judge someone else's goals.

    And with that said:

    175 may be obese for a 5'4" woman, but it's much healthier than 350. If you weigh 350 even getting down to 300 will make you somewhat healthier.

    I would say anyone who can get down to 175, maintain and be active is doing pretty well. Health is not 100% about weight.

    personally, i find it daunting to set such high goals, and i bet people that start out with higher weights feel the same ! i would love to lose 25 pounds the weight i was 2 birthdays ago BUT if i plug that in it just seems so far away! I start smaller, then when i reach my goal I'll feel great about myself then set another !

    Most set multiple goals. If I was 350lb my goals would be 299, 199, and then the mark that would put me as over weight instead of obese.....and finally my ultimate goal. Having mile markers helps people not feel overwhelmed and gives them points to celebrate in their long journey.

    Also who the hell is anyone to criticize someone's goal? They are improving themselves and in no way after the loss you are talking about short changing themselves.

    Also weight isn't everything, I have a 5'5" female on my friends list that just weighed in at 180lb. She lifts heavy, has a body most would die for, and wears a size 6 in most and a size 4 in others. In no way is she not pushing herself, the damn woman is a personal trainer and smoking hot in her 40's.

    No need for me to elaborate on the already abundant and well-stated responses.

    I'm just here for the gifs, and the hope that OP will return with another nugget of wisdom to dissect. :drinker:

    When I started toward a lower weight, I never thought I would reach my ultimate goal. I couldn't even imagine it when I started. I applaud any weight loss if it contributes to improved fitness and wellbeing. The biggest obstacle is often our own mind. I really appreciate MFP because we are all sharing our journey. Our goals and our efforts to achieve them are up to us individually.

    Guise...the OP is 20 and trying to reach "perfection..." Leave her to her youthful arrogance. She'll sort it out eventually and hopefully not hurt too many people in the meantime.
