So people of MFP land - how did you set your goal?
Are you going for the flawed but popular with GP's BMI? Or are you going for body fat, or just a weight that you remember feeling good at?
I'm asking because my current goal is based on fat2fitradio.coms goal setter healthy range body fat percentage and I am just 7lbs short having dropped around 55lbs already.
If I were to go for BMI I would have at least another 14lbs to go.
I am already a dress size smaller than when I was last at my goal weight (lots of working out and "new" muscle tone) and I just think dropping an additional 7lbs in addition to my current target would leave me looking skinny and gaunt....but there is a temptation to try and hit "healthy" BMI - what do you think?
