Great post, Lisa. My own original goal weight (125) was definitely not attainable without losing muscle mass, so it was out the window once I did more calculations. In fact, I'm not even sure I care about my current goal weight (135). I just care about being fit and healthy and eating food that my body likes, wants, and needs.

I actually swore off the scale for the month of March, but it didn't stick cause I had to document some experiments. Anyway, I give it little weight (pardon the pun ) because I'm much more concerned about how I look and feel.

I think it's sad how many unattainable weights are posted as goals. We should also make this thread a recommended reference: Using BF% as goal

Again, great post.
