??goal weights??

  • I'm starting over again, though did a big backslide this week. I'm 6'4", 250lbs I'm pressed on what my goal weight really should be - I've often used the excuse I'm not on the charts, so well? Women arent supposed to be this tall, so who's to say what they should weigh?
    People don't just gawk and make rude comments when you're overweight - they also make you feel like you belong in a freak show when you are all overly tall. Put the two together and oh joy!
    WW says a goal of 190 - just doesnt seem realistic to me! anyone have a link for height/weight charts. Maybe on this site - I'm just not seeing it!
  • i am new here as of today. want to be 175. currently 212!!!! i just quit smoking 7 weeks ago, plus i am in my 40's now, so metabolism is super slow. i lift weights and walk on a treadmill, or ride stationary bike. cannot wait until weather warms up enough to swim again!!! need lots of support.....glad to be here. sorry typing is so "monotone".....using right hand only....left one is asleep at the moment....lol!
  • Well tryingagain ... maybe you'll have to use some other indicater like sizes. Or ... do you remember a time when you were a nice weight?
  • Hi Molly. There's lots of us here who are over 40 and do what we can. Read lots and jump right into any conversation you'd like.
  • where do i find the food logs some members are showing?
  • Like fitday.com??
  • no - just says "my foodlog", though maybe it was available her.
