HOw do you pick your goal weight? Initially I said a size 8 then I got there and said no a 6. Now at 150 pounds I'm a size 4 and to me my waist still doesn't look that small. I suppose I'm having body image issues. What's your advice?

Spoiltmom I am jealous of you. I am the same height and weight as you and I am nowhere near a 4. Do you workout a lot?

Honestly I think I'm already smaller than I was when I graduated high school. I started gaining I think during my last 2 years in high school. So I'm really not sure what I'll look like. Right now, my goal is 135 (which is right at the high end of a "normal" BMI.) I'm not sure what size that will make me. I'm in a size 12 jeans now. My tops are mediums. I've been working on body fat right now, since the scale doesn't want to play nice, so I think I'm getting more tone and maybe some muscle, so I'm not sure how that will effect things.

I am having the same issue right now. My doctor said that I could stop where I am at or if I wanted to get down a little more I should just do it thru exercise. I have met my initial goal if getting to a size 10, but I still think I would like to do a.little more. I dont think I would go past an 8, I dont think it would look good on me. I am 5'8" and about 169 now. My normal bmi will be at 164.
