I am at my final 4lbs and its been tough. Was wondering if anyone thinks once my goal is reached if the maintaining will be just as hard or harder?

    Personally i think that maintaining is pretty easy when you reach goal. You just have to continue to eat right and stay active :) Congrats on being so close to goal!!!

    I think initially it will be harder, you'll have more calories to eat so re-training to eat more, and healthy and since you aren't working towards loosing some of the other bad foods might work their way back in more often just be strong!!
  • I think it might be harder because once you reach your goal, you won't be pushing yourself as hard.

    If you've consistently eaten enough but not too many calories during your weight loss and continue the exercise during maintenance, I think it will be easy. I was able to maintain my weight through 6 weeks of surgery healing with no exercise and I am now back to lose the last couple of pounds. Just watch your weight and come back here if you need to.
