goal weight?

Options
Hi, my name is Jamee:) My goal weight is anywhere between 180-210. Honestly, I just want my body to be healthy, strong, energetic and comfortable in it's weight without having to fight to stay 135-140. I know that I am making a lifestyle change, so it isn't that I am going to diet and then go back to junk. It's just that I don't think I could be happy if I were always fighting. Am I the only one who feels this way?

    According to the charts I should get down between 135-150 and, frankly, I just don't see that being realistic for me. I've set my goal weight as 180, but I'm flexible on that. My goal isn't so much as to be thin as it is to be active and happy. I'm going to see what happens when I get down to my last 50 to lose and see how things feel.

    I'm 379 right now, and according to my doctor I should weigh around 150-160. I'm going for it. Hey, I've got nothing but time :)

    My goal weight is 200-225. BMI Says that I should be around 180 pounds but that just seems impossible. I figure 200-225 is a safe range to shoot for.

    I'm currently at 404. Hoping to get back into the 3's this week!

    Feel free to add me if you want. I like to have friends that understand my struggles.

    My goal weight is 200 pounds...that being said, if I think I can get below it I will lol. Right now 200 sounds safe and reasonable. So that's what my goal is

    I made my goal weight a little higher than the recommended amount because really I was not ready to face the full amount I needed to lose. So once I hit my "goal" on here, I will still have about 30 pounds that I'd need to lose. I am not really sure that what I did makes complete sense, but that'swhat I did :tongue:

    I don't think it is impossible to reach the medically suggested goal weight, but I figure we can worry about that once we reach our own goals!:wink:
