Goal
I am at goal and in maintenance. I am nervous about this as I never have tried to maintain a weight in my life.
Have a Great Friday!
Congratulations again! My past experience has been that losing the weight is easy compared to maintenance! I've failed over and over again and regained the weight. I'm determined to keep it off this time ... please share your experiences as I'll be in the same situation by the end of the year!
I can’t wait for you to join me in the goal zone. We can lean on each other as we navigate a new phase of our journey.lindamtuck2018 wrote: »I am at goal and in maintenance. I am nervous about this as I never have tried to maintain a weight in my life.
@lindamtuck2018 I hear you! Can I lose? Yep, that song has been on repeat forever. But how to intentionally (and happily) keep this hard-fought ground? Mystery...
We are here for you, too! Please let us know what you learn.
Thank you. I will definitely share my experience.Megan_smartiepants1970 wrote: »Congrats @lindamtuck2018 for being at goal...I am so proud of you and your accomplishments🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you! Getting back on track the very next day is so important after indulging on a special holiday. So by doing that it shows how invested you are to your weight loss. I know in the past it would take me days to get back on track. Well done!

I just had the huge pleasure of moving your wonderful captain @lindamtuck2018 to the Goal Zone section of the team!This is a wonderful, scary, exciting moment. Linda has lost 103 pounds. Now the big challenge is to keep it off! I have been working that tightrope act for 11 years now, and it is sometimes tricky. Guaranteed, though - it gets easier! Our bodies are amazing at adapting to a new normal, but it takes time and vigilance. So, Team Downsizers - celebrate and support Linda! She will be working at finding this new normal and then planting her feet there to stay. It takes a team, just as losing does.
Welcome to the world of maintenance, my friend! Keep tracking, moving, eating plenty of fibre, and you'll be acing this!
Thank you so much! It was a scary moment yesterday when I changed my calories to maintaining. I may come look to you for advice as I navigate maintaining my weight. Congratulations to you for keeping your weight off for 11 years.1 -

Yesterday I spent a lot of time reflecting on the last four years. There are so many people I need to thank for supporting me through this journey. I owe a big thanks to my doctor who convinced me to allow her to refer me to the eating disorder clinic. Then my therapist at the clinic who helped me understand my binge eating and gave me the tools to help tame that monster.
The next big thank you goes to each and everyone of you. Without this group and particularly the Downsizers team I never would be at this point. The advice you have given, having patience with me during times I struggled and would gain weight and most of all never letting me quit has been such an important part of my journey. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
I also have to send a big thank you to my friends. I can’t forget my husband. He played a big part in my success.
Thank you 🙏5 -

It's that time again - this coming week we open to new members for December. If you have any friends who would like to join us, send them this link! They can sign up and end 2023 with a bang. MFP might have its issues, but it is an easy one-stop-shop for tracking and community that still works well in its free version. Not perfect, but pretty danged good!

I wish I hadn’t got 2 shots together. I started running a fever around midnight and have terrible body aches. It’s bad timing as we are supposed to take our granddaughters for breakfast and then decorate our tree. I may skip the breakfast and they can decorate after.
Hope you have an amazing Sunday!

Question of the day
Seeing it’s Sunday, we will do a non weight loss question.
What is one thing you will ever do again?

QOTD:
I will never jump out of a plane again. I jumped 3 times and broke my leg. While it is peaceful once your parachute opens, I was terrified of climbing out of the plane. I am terrified of heights. Glad I did it but never again.1 -

~~~ ADDITIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT ~~~@lindamtuck2018 has just joined the Goal Zone!
Linda has been the Downsizers captain since team formation several years ago, and before that she was captain of the Shrinking Assets (now the Shape Shifters). And on top of being an incredible captain, she has been an all-around marvelous member of F2F!
Send her your love, say congrats, and let's all do a little bit extra this week to honor Linda's hard work.1
