i'm 5'6" and my goal weight is between 130-140. i have a very athletic build, so even at my fittest i've never been lower than that because of my muscle retention. it all depends on how your body reacts to working out.. for 5'6" the healthy range is 118-145.

I keep mine open.. I think it helps hold me more accountable for what I eat, even if no one looks at it. It makes me think twice before getting a DQ cone or eating more than one serving of potato chips.
