Hi Everyone,

I am new to this list and have been wondering how others set their final goal weights.

I am 162cms (5' 3") tall. I currently weigh 56kg (123.20 lbs). My original goal was to reach 54kg (118.8 lbs) but I still have a pot belly and my waist is huge at 30". I look nicely in proportion now except for my stomach region. I am thinking that 50kg (110 lbs) might be a better goal for me. Also as a health risk I am concerned about the considerable flab around my girth (my mum died of a heart attack very soon after she turned 58 and she had a big tummy too).

I do exercise 6 times a week. 3 days doing a fast 30 minute walk on the treadmill and the alternate days I do weights with a bar bell (about to add weights to it)and abs.
