But once I hit 170, there's no reason I shouldn't try and find out!
PERFECT attitude about it, Kibs!! When you climb the rungs and still see weight coming off, it will give you HOPE that you can exceed what you thought was your goal in the first place! That being said, I don't want to lose more than I can maintain.

I have looked at your signature several times and it always occurs to me, if you keep up the exercise and have lots of lean muscle mass, you won't be wearing a size 10/12 at 170 lbs. You'll be SMALLER!!! Sheesh, I'm an inch shorter than you and the size 10's began to fit around 190 lbs. At 172, the size 10's are baggy and almost ready to be retired....which is sad really because they are so dang SEXY.
