goal weight

Ideal scale reading

Goal weight is the target body weight someone aims to reach, typically through diet or exercise.

The term appears constantly in fitness and weight-loss contexts: I'm ten pounds from my goal weight.

It can refer to losing or gaining weight, though losing is far more common.

The number is often arbitrary or based on past weight rather than medical guidelines.
