This sounded intriguing and so I tried it. It's really encouraging to see that there is a sane method of measuring with adjustments for age. According to the smartbmicalculator, low 200s is my optimal healthy weight range for my age and height (I'm tall, about 5'11"). How refreshing!

I originally set my goal weight at 199 and, according to what I just read at smartbmicalculator, I decided to reset my goal to 202. I'd love to see the other side of 200, but if my body refuses to lose another ounce at 202 or 205, I will not be so stressed about it! I'm feeling pretty darn good at 212 and so will be fine maintaining 10 lb lighter.
