in Goal: Maintaining Weight
I havn't lost any weight in ages - in fact I had gained - but kept ashamedly quiet - rathter like a 'rogue trader' who tries to make up his losses!

Still today is genuinely good - making an effort once again - 6 difficult pounds to go
- then I might show you my body - if you want ? !!! lol

    Well done on getting the weight loss moving again! It's so frustrating to not see the scales move for a while.

    congrats! I know what you mean, a couple of days ago I went up 1.5 lbs, and I thought, darn water weight/ stupid hormones. That;s okay, today I dropped 2.5.

    It all works out in the end. Just keep doing what you're doing and it will work.:bigsmile:

    WOOHOO that's awesome! Most people who maintain their weight just need to keep their eye on the scale and usually fluctuate a healthy 1-5 pounds here and there and watch what they eat when it does go up! You're on the right track!

    Oh not until the final 6 pounds have gone..

    I am hoping that each pound is hiding one 'pack' - and 'six pack' will be revealed - I dream ;)

    Ah. So movie trailer teaser is it then. LOL. Kick those pounds down. Dreams are good-- unless they are about going into space via space shuttle and worrying if you are too fat for space...dreaming brains are weird.

    Dreams are good

    Agreed - for me it all started from 'If only I were ..'

    It seemed unreachable at Christmas - stopping smoking first - now this lot .. its is actually looking like for once a dream just might come true .. I hope it does for you fine folk too.

    This is a long process and some days are easier than others. You'll get stuck, you'll get frustrated, you'll get distracted. But always come back to this. Always come back to paying attention to the important things. Getting healthier. Getting stronger. Finding your best future. Congratulations. You are on your way.

    I don't know about anyone else - but thoughtful words like that I find both reassuring are incredibly motivating.
    Thanks
