I am wondering if when I get to 170 - will I want to try for 160? Then 150?
I foudn a pic of me at 150 when I started college... I kinda looked scrawny. I want more of an athletic look. IDK. It is just interesting to see where people are coming from and where they are planning to go.

Personally, I chose 150 because I have an
extremely small body frame. I am also a mesomorph, so I build muscles extremely easily and have tons of muscle mass. I haven't really worked out seriously until now (I basically walk all the time) and I actually have strong definition on my abs, legs, and arms.
Its all about your natural frame. Someone who was my height with a thin body type could be a lot lighter than me without the muscle.
To give you an idea, at 175 pounds, 5 ft 10, I am currently a size 6-8 pants/dress size, S/M top. At 150, I will probably be a size 4-6.
