6lbs to target weight!

mastergracey1

So, I'm 6lbs off my target weight. Losing the weight is the easy part, it seems! Keeping it off might be that little bit harder! What's the best way forward? Do I still watch my cals when I get there? Do I drop to less exercise?? what??

I could probably lose more weight but i'll be happy with what my target is - I don't want to get too skinny!!

Congrats on making it this far. If you have a nutrition and fitness program that's sustainable, and can be a part of your lifestyle. Then I would stop at 6 lbs. You may fluctuate a couple of pounds every now and then (depending on when you weigh yourself and how much water/liquids you've consumed). But that's true of everyone.

If you're not sure you've reached that point to where you have something that's doable for the long haul, then I would focus on trying to do just that, while getting those remaining 6 pounds. Try to figure out when you'll be able to get in that physical activity, and try to adopt good and easy-ish choices for your nutrition habits.

I think once the transition from diet and working out to a lifestyle of good eating with an active lifestyle happens, then you'll be set.

Good luck!
