I've set mine at the heaviest I can be to have a BMI of 25, but I'd probably feel ok being slightly heavier than this. Though its so long since I've weighed that little I can't remember what it feels like!!!

My ultimate goal weight is 112lbs / 8 stone, where my BMI would be: 20.5.

I'm quite a petite person, my shoulders arent very broad, im 5ft 2 so it won't look odd on me. I dont suit my body shape now cos i just look like a ball, all round and no shape.

Well done this week everyone!

Regarding the BMI, I'd say I'm probably a medium build and 5ft 4, so 10 - 10.5st should hopefully be ok. Plus I've had 4 kids so I doubt I'm ever going to weigh 8st like I did as a teenager (bullied for being the fat kid, therefore starved myself thin!) Not unless I have a tummy tuck anyway (but thats a whole different topic!!!)

I suppose we all have to find what is right for our particular build, height, self-esteem etc.

What am I saying??? God I'd be ecstatic with just a stone off for now! Laughing

Night everyone...sleep well xxxx

I am about the same as you 4angels - 5 ft 3" so am aiming for about 10 stone. I think for my height I am supposed to be about 8 st 4lbs - but don't want to be that - I think 10 stone will be fine - I don't want to be skinny - just healthy and I will always have my curves.

I also feel I am old enough that I don't aim to fit into the latest fashion - but larger peoples clothing seem to be in two categories frumpy or inappropriate (why oh why are there so many tops with no sleeves? why do so many tops stop at the waist instead of skimming the hips?) the extreme is the matronly, floral and fussy shapeless stuff.

Well done everyone!! I must confess I haven't weighed in this morning I'll have to do it tomorrow. Let's just say I am feeling a bit delicate today!!!

Well done Hayley thats great news Smile

Well done Hayley thats great!!

It may have been noted that I have still not posted my weight this week - I still havent managed to get on the scales as I am just running so late every morning as I still havent recovered from the weekend!! I promise I will try tomorrow morning. My clothes feel loose though and I dont feel bloated so fingers crossed. (Cant believe I've got Wednesday without a weigh in !!)

Ok so call me a saddo but Eurovision!!! is one of my favourite things ever! So i'm planning to eat lots of nibbles and naughty things tonight, so have decided to weigh in this morning instead and give myself a week to work off the Eurovision blowout.

I've lost 2lbs this week and am very happy with that!

Subject: Re: WEEKLY WEIGH INS - Sundays Sat May 16, 2009 1:54 am

Well done Starbuck! Smile

2lbs thats great - you are doing fab with your weightloss Starbuck - well done.

I laughed at the eurovision snacks - we all have days where healthy eating plans are out the window - why not for eurovision Smile

I am waiting until tomorrow to step on the scales, so will report back on this thread then. Very Happy

Well I have gained a lb but it's ok as I am due on so its fluid retention - no doubt it will drop back down in a couple of days - I am just going to keep plugging away at the gym and try not to giv e into the urge for cheese or chocolate.

Well done wonderwoman and Starbuck for your loss.
