Weight Loss for Everyone: How to decide goal weight?

How to decide goal weight?

To start off, I'm finally trying to be focused on losing weight. I'm 5'6" 26 years old female. I'm currently at ~339 pounds. My highest weight was 359.8 but I was steady at 320 for 5 years before that. Ideally, I'd like to be closer to the lower 200's but I know that's a far fetched idea right out of the gate.

So how does one figure out what their goal weight should be? I've been overweight since middle School, so I don't remember my body at different weights. I also know that loose skin can weigh a bit too, so I will have to keep that in mind as I lose the pounds.

I've seen my doctor recently, and she mentioned average weight loss is around 5% a year -- which for me would be 18 pounds (which I have done already so yay!) But I'm not here for a 7+ year journey just to lose weight.
