    What's Your Happy Weight?

    Self had an article on finding your "happy" weight (a weight you wouldn't have to struggle to maintain). My happy weight is 150.3 pounds which is funny because my first Atkins goal was 150 pounds (do I need to rethink my goal). See below to take the quiz (not sure if this is only for women).

    Mine is 145 - which is a little lower than my goal. Mmm. Sounds impossible to me. I'd say I was about 12 when I last weighed that!

                Re: What's Your Happy Weight?

                mine is 133 lbs. That is way lower than what I chose as my goal weight of 160- 165. Maybe I should pick large frame instead of medium....

                Thanks for the quiz Kat.

                    You need to measure your wrist to determine your frame size. I had always thought I was a large frame but turns out I'm a medium frame (I have really skinny wrists). The goal of 140 is my weight at 22 (which was 14 years ago). I had chosen 150 as my original goal thinking I could live with that but after I started losing weight was thinking I could reach 140 again. However, I've had a baby since the original 137 pounds (which distorts the whole body). I guess I'll see what I look like when I get to 150 to determine if that will be my maintenance point.

                      Mine came up as 137! I was shocked! I had never thought about going that low. My goal is 150-155. I guess that is why they say you should always be reasessing your goals as you get closer to them. Right now i feel so far away from them I can't even imagine myself at them.
