Yes, I did. I started maintaining at 140 lbs and eventually lost 10 more pounds.

I was wanting to stop at 160, but I've lost down to about 140, give or take a pound or so.

Here's hoping ( no, knowing) that I will be following in all of your footsteps.

Yes, I thought 154 would be good, as it was a "normal" BMI for my height, but over the next 9 months or so I lost another 25+ pounds to where I am now, about 128. I have held this weight now for about 10 months, I think.

I was a little below my goal weight (~123), but now I am a little above it (~128). I don't think I would like to go much lower. I have already had a couple of "you're getting too thin" comments.

I'm about 12 lbs. lower than my original WW goal, and 3.5 lbs. lower than my next goal of 100 lbs. lost. I don't like going above the "100 lbs. lost" mark.

I've lost about 4 lbs since I started thinking of myself as "maintaining."

I didn't really set a "goal" for what I wanted to weight. I just said that I wanted to get into my size 6 jeans and them be comfortable. meaning really loose. I did lose a bit more than i expected to though. I call it my cushion.

I've lost 6 pounds since my official goal of 127.5, and had just stayed constant two weeks in a row last Friday. This week I'm on a family vacation so I may have gained some of that back though...

Yes, it's happened to me as well. My goal was 125, and then the number just kept getting lower and lower. I'm starting to get the "you're so skinny, don't lose any more weight" comments -- which I think it ridiculous because I'm smack in the middle of the healthy range for my height, AND I'm doing the exact same routine that I've been doing all along. My body will stop when it's ready to stop, and I'm not going to get in its way
