What if...? (Goals)

hush7hush

If weight were not a measurement of progress, what would your ultimate goal really be?

AND, what would your goal be if numbers in general were completely relevant?

For me, my ultimate goal would be to be able to put on ANY exercise video, and complete the entire workout with no breaks.

I'd want to be able to just fit into size 6 jeans without the bulge and be able to shake my arms without that jiggle.

That!

I never get on a scale anymore, so weight is already irrelevant to me in terms of progress. I have reached my "size goal," so now I am working on body composition. I'd like to ultimately be around 18 to 19% bodyfat (lean, but not so lean that I don't look like a chick anymore). I'm around 22% now. I also have strength goals I'm working toward. Weight is really beside the point for me.

My ultimate goal would be to be smaller than I am now (Shana from Shakugan no Shana or Taiga from Tora Dora size).

pic of both girls together haha!!

With numbers as relevant, I guessed this to be at 80-85 pounds.

You want to look like a cartoon character? hmmmm....

More concerning: You want to weigh 80-85 pounds?

Yes, I would agree that is way more concerning. I guess I should have stated that.... I didn't want to start a war! LOL
80-85 pounds has to be super unhealthy, especially for a taller woman ( that is what she looked like in her picture).

I am a legal midget. Who looked like what in which picture is my question...because my profile pic is merely my face. Hmmm

As for the reason I posted pics of cartoon characters: because it is easier and less odd than finding a pic of a random petite women and posting that. I do not know any celebrities who fit this profile, and do not want to post photos of random women.

PS: Sorry if I do not always remember to post my height since the signatures were removed recently (and I had my height there in the past) <.< Really annoyed I cannot even talk about my goal weight online except with my MFPs because I don't fit the typical *average size* mold.

FunRun08

To compete in a full Ironman. Its what I fantasize about when I am pushing myself through a tough run.

Well, I'm only Five foot tall and I know that 85 pounds wouldn't be healthy for me. I'd say stay around 90 to a 100 if you are any shorter than that.

Thank you for the advice, but I am two inches shorter than you and maybe we have different builds. I spoke with my doctor about my diet, and she was approving. I do not need concern from strangers online, although I appreciate how you were not insulting in how you approached this...it was refreshing, unlike some people who have been very quick to attack ^^
I have plenty of friends in real life to alert me if they feel concerned (which they don't because I am not unhealthy) ^^

Striving to look like an anime character is concerning. Just make sure you have realistic goals.

To ride my bike up Mt. Evans road, which is the highest paved road in North America. My dad did this two years ago...when he was 60.

Thought of another good one! I don't want that chubby roll between my boob and armpit anymore. I will be happy when it is gone for good!
