Can you guess my weight?

This one is a little different.. I look at myself everyday and I know I have only made it half way to my goal but when I see myself in the mirror.. I don't see someone who looks like they way as much as I do..

Here are some stats to help you with the guesses... don't worry if you guess over I won't be offended.. I genuinely like what I see in the mirror. I will like it more when I lose the other half..

I am 5'4" and 43 years old..need to lose another 40 lbs to be considered over weight.. right now I am obese.. :laugh: :wink:

sorry the pic isn't the best.. was a last minute shot.

    Thanks.. I don't feel obese but that is what the chart says.. even when I reach my goal weight I will still be in the "over weight" range.

    I am going to guess 195 just because I am also 5'4" so I am thinking the overweight range is in the 150's... But you carry your weight really well, I wouldn't have guessed you were in the obese category at all...

    214? (And not because you look like it at all!). The BMI tables on the NIH website put right at 174.2 at the line from 30 - 29.9 BMI for 5'4" - obese to overweight transition. I know the number because I am also 5'4" and that's an interim goal down the road. So adding 40 to that...? But I don't believe you're that weight.

    Okay.. I am 194.. trying my hardest to get into my 180s but it isn't happening..

    I don't think I look 194.. I wear 14s now and the last time I wore those I was in the 170s..

    I am doing Insanity and only lost 4lbs and with less then 2 weeks to go I think the inches will keep dropping but it would be nice to see the scale move with all the sweat I pour out for that man. :bigsmile:

    I hate to ruin this, but your progress chart thingy is right below your question. It says you're about 194ish. BTW, I wouldn't have guessed that high.

    Wow I seriously couldn't even tell! But what I would suggest for that plateau is upping your calories a bit. That's what I did, and I'm losing again. Good luck! :)
