Whatever your doctor says is healthy! Be safe :)

I had exactly the same problem. I very intentionally never set a weight goal. My focus was on following the protocol as closely to the letter as I possibly could. I made a decision from the very beginning that my body would know when it was at the weight that it needed to be at. And that's exactly what happened. I followed the protocol and when my weight loss stabilized, that was the number. Your family and friends have the very best of intentions. You gotta love 'em. But your body and your doctor will give you healthy, objective feedback. You're gonna love the new you!!
