RJ'S/beginning 5,358 Posted August 2, 2014 (edited) Congratulations.......your right. Now maintenance. And the real test of fears and worry. I am where you are too and fear of gaining it back is an every hour emotion for me. Even though I am now exercising again. I am worried that it will all come back on me and I will fail.... We are human with a lot of issues to settle and we will battle them constantly. BUT! we made it and a celebration time has to be enjoyed and then work to keep us there.....You will see some ups and downs over this.... Have a weight that you will not go above. I chose 5 lbs. When I hit that I will buckle down and lose it again........ Your not alone in this part......You have traveled the new road and have succeeded. I am so proud of you and you look so good and happy.. And you should be! You won the battle........And you shall win the war over what brought you here..... All the best sweetie as you enjoy what is ahead of you!

winning_by_losing 107 Posted August 4, 2014 Congrats. All of that in just under a year. RJ's - that is great advice about picking a weight. When I get to the maintenance point I'm definitely going to remember that little tip. 1 Mommabird reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
