Although Jill's ideal weight according to our charts is 124 pounds, this recommended weight is not set in stone. This applies to ALL 'recommended weight charts'. While 124 pounds may be perfect for Jill's friend, it may not be perfect for her. Why so? Let's say that Jill takes up weightlifting and her muscle mass is dense. Muscle not only takes more energy (calories) to support but it also weighs heavier on the scale. Therefore, once Jill reaches 138 pounds she can adjust her weight downwards to suit her personal needs. But my advice to choose the highest recommended weight on the grid is multi-faceted. When losing weight - it's vital to accomplish small goals along the way. This adds confidence to your weight loss plan and weight loss in itself can be your most powerful 'motivator' in losing that excess weight. Always keep in mind that tiny goals add up to impressive goals.
Little by little those extra pounds were packed on and little by little they will come off.
