Hey There! For any women over 5 ft 10 inches tall...
Hi Everyone!
I have a couple of comments and questions...
For any of you women out there who are really tall. Please tell me:
- Your height
- Your age
- Your goal weight
- Your current weight
- The reason why you chose that goal weight
Being so tall, I have always strived to be really thin. Somehow in my mind I think I look more feminine the thinner I am...
My weight loss journey has made me take a real hard look at myself and my personal self image. I would like to know if any of you also want to have a very low BMI and want to be very thin.
I am 6 feet tall. My original goal was 140 lbs. I have acheived that goal or near it, several times in my life. But I never ever maintain my weight loss.
I recently increased my goal from 140 lbs to 150 lbs. I did this for a couple of reasons:
1) So that I could maintain between 140 - 150 lbs rather than below 140 lbs
2) So that I would feel like a success anywhere under 150 lbs
3) It seemed like a more realistic goal and easier to acheive and maintain
I secretly would love to fluctuate around 140 lbs give or take a few pounds up or down, but I also don't want to set myself up for failure.
I so look forward to your honest and candid replies.
All the best on your weight loss journey!
