How much more should I lose?

Currently I am 212 pounds, waist 37 inches, and stand at 5' 9". I have lost over a hundred pounds since Feb 2011. I did not set my goal stats, my former personal trainer did. He put the goal weight at 200 pounds. My doctor wants me in the 160's to 170's. I think I would look silly that small, but I still feel sort of fat at my current weight. Everyone at work has an opinion, (all offered by them) most think I have gotten small enough and are surprised I want to get smaller. So MFP should I just lose the last 12 pounds and tone, or go for a little more? (190, 180?)

    I think you should work on your toning and in doing so maybe you will lose what you want and be satisfied, but I would do what makes you the happiest :smile:

    Shoot for the 200 and see how you look and feel. You can always make adjustments from that point. Good luck and great job!
