Helllo you wonderful inspiring and motivating women!!!
I am new to the world of dieting but have always wanted to have a cute little body yet never had any idea how to get it. My very successful weight-loosing friend said she always sets goals. What a great idea!! Her goal was to lose 30 lbs by her 30th bday.
I saw a photo of myself about 5 weeks ago and said whoa! You are not looking cute! Get moving!!!
So here I am, counting calories, exercising, feeling sexy! But don't have a goal!! I wrote a goal weight on my profile here, but it was a number I kinda just made up.
My only substantial weight loss I had was about 2.5 years ago when I went thru a bad breakup. Very unhealthy type of I-can't-eat-or-sleep-syndrome. I was about 133 lbs.( And gained it all back). 5'5 and 135 is not underweight at all, in fact I still felt heavy. But I was wearing a size 3 levi's skinny jeans, and levi's is not a company to oversize their numbers the way that many stores do
Now.
By the way all my weight is all in my thighs and love handles! But my stomach is the last place i gain weight. Even now at 145 lbs I have a 27" waist. My point is, looking at women my height, average height, who are thin, weigh 115 or 120 lbs.
So is that my goal? I just don't know what my goal is supposed to be! How do you figure your ideal weight??
