Things went reasonably well this week. Making my intake and strength training/step goals. Tomorrow I leave for a family vacation. Not sure if I'll be bringing the scale with me or not. Will have to see if it fits with everything else in the luggage.

I can relate! My husband can’t, so that doesn’t help…he has snack before dinner and dessert afterwards EVERY NIGHT! Those have taken their toll on me now that I’m older…can’t just lose 10 pounds “like that” anymore. Hang in there…persistence pays off.

Maintenance is a weird beast. I should be happy to be holding steady, but instead see a flashing + sign in my head.

I worry about when I finally get into the maintenance area. I've been there twice and drastically failed. But I learned alot and I'm positive 3rd times the charm. I'm only an inch taller than you and can't imagine myself at the weight you are. Congrats!! I'm aiming for 175lbs. if I'm lucky.

You've given yourself a 5lb. range so I think this is good. Some body fluctuations are out of our control so you could be up 1/2 lb one day and down 3 lbs the next. I would take care but not let that flashion sign in your head take control. Happy days in maintenance mode!!
