[quote=Anonymous]1 - pick the max weight for a healthy BMI (assuming that you have normal muscle tone and skeleton; BMI isn't a very good gauge for some). That's a reasonable place to set your initial sights. 2 - Pick some fitness milestones, too. Like walking a mile in 15 minutes. Being able to walk for an hour straight. Doing a 5k. X number of push ups and sit ups. Being able to take the stairs to your office without getting winded (harder than a 5k, at least for me). Fitness matters, IMO, even more than your BMI. 3 - Get your "numbers" for cholesterol, glucose, etc. See if any of those could be improved. There's a good chance that being in better physical shape will help those. 4 - Do you have a dress or pair of jeans that you have kept for sentimental reasons? I still have the dress I was wearing when I met DH. Not sure if it is possible for me to ever fit in it again--DC did a number on my rib cage--but I still hold out hope.[/quote]
