Or, if you really want a guideline, look up what you BMI is at (Body Mass Index). It is a VERY ROUGH estimation of what you should weigh based on your gender, age and height. Keep in mind it won't factor in things like muscular physiques or higher bone mass.

I'm 24 and 5'6". I've set my goal weight at 140, down from a 195 starting weight. Sometimes the number seems so far away I could cry.

My goal weight is 140 pounds. I eat back half my exercise calories, so if I burned 340 in a day, I will eat 1370 instead of 1200. Would I have better luck if I eat more? I seem to be having trouble convincing myself I need to eat more. All my life I've exercised little to no control over my eating and now I feel like I…
