Default What constitutes a featherweight?
Hello,

I'm wondering what the guidelines are for whether you can be a featherweight or not? Am I still too heavy (154) or too far away from my goal (24 pounds) to be considered one?

We don't hold anyone to exact figures! If you feel that you'd fit in then jump on in!!! We welcome anyone! (And you'd fit in just fine.)

I don't think there are any rules. Close to goal weight? Last few pounds to go? Something like that.

featherweights to me is a state of mind...it's like...you're on the final stretch, regardless of what the final stretch is to you, however many pounds it is or however long it takes you. even when i reach my goal weight i'll still post in here i think.

I agree with Sweet_Talker. It's definitely based on mind set. End of the journey sort of thing, or people just looking to tone it up. And everyone's body is different, for some people, heavier is just how their frame is. I think you'll fit in fine!
