Dr Miranda suggested a goal weight, according her very (old skool thinking & low-tech) BMI chart.

But having a background in fitness & nutrition, I set my own goal.

yes, that's right, Dr. Miranda suggests a goal weight. She asked he how much I would like to lose, I told her I want to get back to my healthy 125-130 and she said.. "That's your goal weight" ...

I don't have any training, but I think that 130 was my happiest weight. lol. my clothes fit right, and looked nice. i felt good about myself and would like to get back to that.
