    One has to ask, WHY do I want to weigh less? If there is nothing wrong with your weight now and you are healthy, then where does that desire come from? Is it some strange idea that it's better to be smaller, ever smaller? Is it a desire to wear a size 2, then 0, then... ? Is it because you think "just five more pounds" will solve the body areas you don't like?

    Not saying that it's good or bad, only that it can become an obsession.

    Wow, that really speaks to me today. Thanks Jay.
  • I have been maintaining for almost two years. Anything under 130 lbs. I'm happy with, though I still want to go lower. I have found that it gets really uncomfortable to maintain 123-124 but I still want to try.
