Right on Sammy .. I adore our friends also and don't care what they weigh.
For myself, if I'm feeling frumpy, it is time to lose a few pounds. But I no longer want to be thin. We do need to keep a decent weight in case of illness. And skinny is just not appealing on a middle-aged woman.
I agree with sschular, find a weight where you feel strong and healthy.
