I have freinds who started about 350 and reached 150 so you goal sounds good.
It is really hard to go by lbs. Once you start losing you will see how good you feel and may be staisfied with 170. Right now I am glad for ever pound.

Good luck

How tall are you?  Is your frame small, medium or large (sometimes hard to figure out when you're obese; check out the size of your hands compared to other women)? If you are large-framed, the BMI is a really lousy way to set your goals.

I'm 5'5", small to medium frame.  Personally, I set my own goal at 160, which is 10 lbs above the normal BMI range.  I'll be there any day now, so will probably change my goal to 150, and if I'm fortunate enough to get there, I may even change it to 140.

I had the same thing happen to me a few weeks back. I've just decided I am going to do the best I can, and the end weight will be what it is, hopefully more than I was told (of course!)
