Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 Stef, I'm 6', not much taller than you are, with a large frame and my goal weight (for myself) is 170 but I'll be satisfied with anything under 200....149 does seem awfully low...did you get that from your doctor or did you set that yourself?

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 , My Dr's nurse calculated it. I plan on questioning this goal. I was thinkin that 170 would be good for me. I checked my BMI at that weight and it is at the low end of normal. I am big boned, (seriously) my wrist has little fat around it and it is just under 8 inches. Thanks, Stef RE: Just a few questions Stef, I'm 6', not much taller than you are, with a large frame and my goal weight (for myself) is 170 but I'll be satisfied with anything under 200....149 does seem awfully low...did you get that from your doctor or did you set that yourself?

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 hi, i punched in those stats & you'd have a BMi of 21. 175 would give you a BMI of 25, i think 24.9 is " normal " according to L-rd knows who.. lori h. 19 " normal " months out > Hi all, I am having Lap RNY 12-29-03.
