Close to goal - stop?

Gotta question for all of you that are close to goal.  My personal goal was 120, which I determined, at 5 foot, would be a 6 petite.  Well, we've got good news and bad news.  The good news is that I just went shopping at lunch and bought a bunch of stuff that is a 6 petite - yeah!  However, I am at 133 lbs.  That's good but not at my goal weight.  I've lost 87.5 lbs and would really like to get to 100 lbs off.  Do I wait for the plastic surgery to get it off?  I plan to try to work out like crazy for the next 6 months to really see how much surgery I'll need.  My doctor is pleased with my progress but I came into this with a goal of losing 100 lbs - shouldn't I see it through?  Besides, don't we gain a little back after 1 year?  Help - what's a woman to do?

You know...everyone has their personal goals, but we all went into this to become healthy, right.  I weigh 164 and at 5' 6" they tell me I should be about 133-138lbs.  My goal was 150 and I am sticking to it, because honetly, I think about 15lbs will be removed from plastics and any less I might look anorexic, but then I have a lot of muscle.  At 174 I wore a size 8.  I think it is all relative, it is what you are comfortable with, but don't get fixated on a number.  Numbers are stupid, take from someone who plays with them all day.  A size 6 is awesome....the plastics will take care of the rest, just keep working out, your body will tell you when it is done.... Stay healthy Jen
