Target weight concerns

[linzi]

Hi,
I've been doing slimming world for just over a year and have lost 10.5st.

I was discussing my target with my consultant tonight and it seemed like my target range is really low.

As in I'm worried I will look too thin if I reach it. I know it's based on bmi but for the clothes size and weight I am now it just seems too low.

Thanks

Wow 10.5 stone is amazing. What an achievement. You don't have to set a target that is within any particular bmi. It's personal. So you can call target any time if you are happy and comfortable and think you can maintain.

BMI is only a guide that medical professionals use and doesn't take account of many things such as body shape, age and so on. It really isn't the be all and end all. Don't be restricted by it.

My consultant talked through it with me and said go away and think about it before I set it.

I kind of want to get into my healthy bmi but I don't think it's healthy for me.

I might just see how I go
