I am 5'8" and I guess my weight goal (#) is still 165, but over the last 9 months I have hit many of the most relevent goals I have set for myself. I am no longer a slave to noodles, chips and sticky rice. I have lowered my blood sugar and cholesterol. I have begun to take better care of my overall appearence, dressing better and even occasionally applying cosmetics. Most importantly, I have made my health and well being an ongoing daily priority. Now after the inital shock of seeing my weight loss, I am now being complimented on my overall confidence and improved atittude, which believe me feels a whole lot better than hearing "You look like you have lost weight."
At 175, I look and feel pretty good and with 60+ pounds gone, I no longer feel the shame/failure cycle I did when I was heavier. Besides, just like purchasing shoes, the number doesn't mean a whole lot if the things hurt your feet - it is the overall "fit" that matters.
