I have a quandry to ask

Do what you want to do. this is your journey,not theirs. let them be in control of their weight and their life and you be in control of yours. GL

Thanks so much. I believe I gonna shoot for 150

You didn't include your height?  I am 5'3 and started at 326, my surgeon thought that 160 would be good but I'm shooting for 145.  I met with my primary care last week and he thought that 145 would be ideal for me.  Your age has some bearing on the weight as well.  I am 57 and I would be thrilled at 145.  Currently my weight is at 167 and i do look fine, but I am a little frightened about the bounce back weight too which could be 5-10 pounds. 

It is such a personal choice and how you feel is the most important factor. Then maintaining will be the real challenge

I am 5"8. And 39 years young

I think you shouldn't worry about it. Tell people asking that your body will stop losing once it gets to the weight it levels at.....Dang....size 8....I was 167lbs back in 1987 & was a size 16/18 (I am only 5'3" tall though). Remember this is your body and your choice to do WLS, thank the family for their concerns & advise and do what's best for you! Congrats on the weight loss, so far.
