A short advice clip from Jim Katsoulis arguing that a goal weight should be given personal meaning rather than treated as a bare number. He recommends asking why you want that weight and what benefits you expect (happiness, health, confidence) because understanding the motive makes the process more meaningful and motivating.

You need to give your goal weight more meaning if you want it to be more motivating. Just focusing on a number on a scale is not going to do it, because that number does not guarantee that you're going to be happier, healthier, or more confident. It depends how you achieve that number. So why do you want to be at your goal weight? What are you going to get out of it? These are the questions you want to start asking yourself because it gives the whole process more meaning, which makes it more motivating.
