Do You Keep Lowering Your Goal?
Hey All,
I was just getting ready for bed and weighed myself and was like wow!! I am done with this latest Plateau, YAY!! I dont stress off it anymore. I know it will come again.. and wont last FOREVER... although, sometimes it does feel like it ... ;) I just got to thinking wow, I am 32 lbs away from my REAL goal. I had a goal that I wanted to lose 100, then it was a 150 and now I have reached both those goals, now I want to be 140 lbs and about a size 8/10. I am now a 10/12. I am so close but then thought would that be small enough? I dont want to over analize this, but does anyone else do this? Has anyone else thought the same? Just curious. I am VERY happy with the new Lori. I honestly am 1/2 the size I was... If I dont lose anymore I would be content . This was the first summer I had worn a bathing suit without a shirt since before having kids and my oldest is 15!! I am very happy with my results. Just wanted to make that point.
I hope everyone is well and have a great week!!

Hey,
I guess it depends on how tall you are. I like to check the bmi chart. It's fun. But aside from that. Size 8/10 is a nice slender size. But then again, so is 10/12. I think it depends on what you are comfortable with. Do you like the way you fit in your clothes? Are you feeling okay with your body shape? Sounds like you are if you were wearing a bathing suit and didn't cover yourself up in it with a shirt.
What is your height and body frame?

I know the BMI charts for me are low and I look better a little heavier. Like coconut said its all on how you feel and your body looks. Some people can carry a little more weight than others. I'm one of those people but I'm tall too 5'7. I can't even imagine myself at 150lbs, I would look like I was going to die anyday LOL. Sometimes I think those medical bmi charts are wack. Congratulations on your loss! ;) Lou
Thanks! I honestly am fine the way I am now... I figure once I get my surgery for my panni then I am sure I will be soooo happy with myself. That alone will help out and throw me down to an 8/10. I am wanting to have a consult with Dr. Hawes, but I know it will be a little while before I am at that point. I am looking into having a panni and a breast reduction at the same time... I was told he does do it. I am going to check and see though. Thanks again for the advice and compliment!!!
