People 12+ Months Out.

[USMCwifeandTEACHER 3]

In three days, I will hit my one year mark.

I've lost 62 lbs. A little shy from my 77 lbs. ideal weight per my surgeon.

My question is... when you hit one year, was that the end of your weight loss or did you continue?

I continued to lose. On my one-year anniversary on 1/13, I weighed 148. I weighed 137 this morning. If I am busy and forget to eat I can easily lose a pound or two. I continue to adhere to "protein first," small portions, I eat very few processed foods and almost no starches. I try to keep my calories up with almonds and nut butter, sometimes a supplemental Protein Shake. I don't believe there is a magic time when weight loss stops but I do believe it becomes way harder over time to mentally keep to the Protein first rule, especially if you have a family who is eating normally.
