Yeah, I'm short. Only 5'3" I *wish* I were 4 inches taller...Originally Posted by WindingRoad
My ultimate goal is to be 140 again. I was once 120, but my athletics suffered when I was that tiny. I didn't have the power on the bike and I didn't have it on the run. 140 is where I feel the most comfortable and am able to perform at my best. I still have a long way to go...
Last time I lost all the weight I lost it too fast and it didn't stay off (I lost 2-3 lbs a week). This time I'm purposely taking it slower in hopes that it will last. My goal is 1 lb a week.
It's definitely NOT where the charts say I should be, but we all know height/weight charts don't take into account the athlete. When Arnold was at his Mr. Olympian best, he was considered obese according to the charts.
