GOAL!!!!!!!!!!

I DID IT! GOAL!!!! 6 weeks of maintenance to go. Woohoo!

Thank you all very much for celebrating with me! I didn’t think it would be this satisfying as my ‘personal goal’ is a bit lower but I haven’t been this light since my wedding 10 years ago. I’m getting lots of positive comments (which are a little unnerving because what I hear not what they say is, “You were so fat before.”) I’m most proud of learning self control. I’ve got food; it doesn’t have me.
As far as advice, Alison (Dragonfly9712), the accountability of the meetings and weigh ins were really the key to my success. I had about 2 months where I only lost about 2 lbs total with lots of up and downs. I was skipping the meetings and weigh ins if I knew I was up. I think this led to more difficulty for me. When I finally said, “Forget it, I have to make the meetings no matter what,” I was successful again.
