Default How did you all set your targets?

I am a long way from maintenance, unfortunately but wonder if you can help me with a small question.

How do you set a target when you have not been satisfactorily slim for a long time. I guess you adjust either up or down, when you are nearer the goal? I wonder whether I will not see myself as successful until I have hit my 140 target which may be too low and thus hard to maintain. Of course it may be too high, who knows.

I often check the profiles of posters, to see how weight matches height. The range is vast, which is understandable, given the different shapes we all are. However, I do not really know what shape I should be. I hope it will be clearer when I am nearer...

Any wise thoughts????
