jensjoy28 351 Posted June 22, 2013 Love this...all of these women weigh the same weight...even though we KNOW this intuitively, it is a nice reminder that we shouldn't be a slave to the actual number that the scale says because it means very little. 27 NewAshes, Molly3, NancyG and 24 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jensjoy28 351 Posted June 22, 2013 I think they omitted height on purpose...it is all about finding a weight that looks and feels good for YOU. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoiaRox 430 Posted June 22, 2013 I sometimes get amazed at the lower weights people "start" and "end" with in their signatures - I take a step back and have to remember that I'm relatively tall (5'9") and that my weights are okay for who I am . While I do have a "goal" in mind, I've also never been close to it as an adult (goal is 169, lowest adult weight was 216) - so I have no idea how I'll look/feel when I get closer! Who knows, I may love 180! We shall see! 1 TES reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
