    Fantastic!!! You look amazing! I’m interested in your struggles as well—and how you fought back. You have dongreat things!

    Thanks Loree! [edited by mods]

    However my biggest issue was emotional eating. I realized that my weight gain and failed attempts at weight loss had more to do with the underlying issues of self acceptance than anything else. I had to really embrace myself before I was able to make my transition.

    Wow! Congrats on an amazing transformation!

    I know what you mean about not wanting to eat more when you reached your goal. What worked for me was slowing increasing my calories, not moving from my deficit to maintenance overnight. That seemed to help me with my transition mentally. I just didn't want all the weight to come back!

    Wishing you continued success!
    thats my current struggle. The belief that if I don’t eat the way I did while losing weight that all the weight will immediately routine. 😢

    What was before you started this transformation is gone. I realize that what I did and ate before has to be gone.
    I must be a different person and will have to log forever to keep me in check. Lifestyle change is what called.......true?!

Congratulations on your hard work then and the fun of reaping the rewards of such hard work. Amazingly inspirationational! From an old lady who wishes she would have done it then.....
