Don't have a specific goal...and that's ok.

I weigh about 260lbs and I haven't felt comfortable in my own skin for some time. I want to get to about 230lbs or maybe lower but I won't know where I want to stop until I get there. Maybe 230 or 220 or maybe even lower, but I will know when I get there.

    When I started out almost 2 years ago I just wanted to be under 200 pounds. When I reached that I just wanted to be under 190. Here I am in the 160's and I don't think I have a lot more to lose but I will know when I get to it. There's nothing wrong with not setting a number, I think it makes it easier.

    I don't really know my goal either - I'm making little goals as I go along ie be 75kg or less by my best friends wedding - I agree, I think you'll know when you get there :-)

    It IS ok. Actually you do have a goal - to drop a few lbs. Try that out and see how it feels. Reevaluate later. Enjoy! :drinker:
