What targets have you set for yourself?

[ClaireMarie]

Is it a particular weight or dress size?

I'm getting very close to having a healthy bmi however have probably got up to a stone of excess skin..so don't know when to try to stop losing weight.

My dietician says it's entirely up to me, but I would have found it easier if she had given me a figure to aim for.

I'm a long way off my *target* I don't really have a final target in mind, I plucked 12 stone out of the air to put on my stats, I like to set myself mini targets to get myself motivated to strive to the next target.

I'm much the same as you - when I saw my consultant and he asked what weight I'd like to achieve I said 13 stone - just because it seemed do-able! So that became my target, and when I saw him for my 6 month check up I had already reached that so I was told any more was a bonus. So I still don't really have one - but I'm thinking 10 stone 3lb, just because it would mean i've halved my weight. If I don't ever get to that weight I won't be too bothered, happy as I am, just do not want to gain - ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did that throughout, it's just now it's the final one. I just don't know if that excess skin makes a difference to the figures, I mean if I have a stone of excess skin, will me getting down to 9 stone mean I'll be underweight in real terms?

As I've said before we are same height were same weight, if I can look as good as you do now I will be one happy bunny

I wonder if we will stop losing weight when we reach those lower numbers, I'm half a stone off 10 stone 3, and just 6 months out, my surgeon never asked me for a target figure, no-one has.

I'm with you there I never want to gain, it makes me want to have a fair margin for weight gain. Say half a stone lower than what I'm prepared to stay at, so I don't worry so much.

Aww butterfly that was so sweet, I'm sure you will look loads better than I do, when I take my clothes off it ain't all that pretty, but thank you for the compliment.

My pulling Jeans which I haven't worn since I met my Husband. I also bought a red spotty "wiggle" dress an incentive. Once i'm in those, whatever the weight is at that point, i'll be happy.
