I'm pretty sure I'll be here long after hitting goal to maintain my weight loss and to create some new goals and really change the way I use the site to really become myFITNESSpal.
Also would like to be able to continue supporting existing and new friends who are on the weight loss/fitness journey0 -
I'm at "maintenance" and for me, tracking now is just as important as when I was losing weight. Nothing has really changed from weight loss to maintenance other than I get to eat a bit more. But tracking, exercising, and being accountable are the only way to keep from gaining the weight back.
So for me, there is no end.... just a new chapter!0 -
I will continue to log on if only for the calorie counting alone to help with maintenance.0
-
I won't be going anywhere. If i do i know i'll end up back at square one.0

I think that fitness and health is a on going progress. Once one goal is reached, another is waiting to be set. When I reach my weight goal then I'm going to focus more on toning up and less on cardio. But even if I somehow become 100% happy with my health and fitness I think I'll keep my account to motivate and encourage others who are at the beginning of their journey.0

I think I will continue using it to maintain. Only once I am completely confident that I'll be able to eat healthy and maintain my weight I will decide if I keep using it.0

Just wondering... what will you do once you have reached your goal ? do you delete the app ? do you log off for good ? i wonder what happens if and when everyone eventually hits their ideal look and weight ?!
I might just disappear when the jobs done i think ?
I hit my goal and stayed on in MFP as my friends haven't hit theirs and used it as a way of maintaining it. I failed on both counts and here I am,trying to get those last 10 lbs back. MFP should be a habit and a remainder of how good health is so important..and also, to be there for others.0 -
I just hit my goal. I'm going to continue to log my food every day. Last time I hit my goal and thought I could just wing it. I gained the weight back. I'm really bad at estimating how much I eat.0

i reached goal weight late last fall, thought i could maintain myself at that point and continue to improve fitness on my own.
i was wrong.
mfp is so much more than just monitoring calories for me.0 -
I'm not leaving. I have to be realistic: for the rest of my life, I'll have to be careful with my eating and remain accountable. That is the reality of my life...0

Make a new Goal..........and as Dewey Cox says "Walk Hard"0

My relationship with food has always been a difficult one, its like being an addict, but unlike alcoholics and drink, food isnt somthing I can give up. Logging my food helps me to stay in control! Im a long way off goal and when I get there this will not be a journey Ill want to complete again. For me, logging will be a way of life but this app makes it easy to do and doesnt impact on my day at all - so Im here for the long run - to maintenance and beyond!!0
-
I will stay on the site maintain, As they say don't forget where u come from! Plus I want to encourage others who will join after me to let them know if i can do it so can they!
^THIS
Eventually (months?, years?) when I have success maintaining I will wean myself off of the daily logging, but I doubt I ever completely delete my account. I plan on having babies someday and I KNOW I will need the help again to get that extra weight off.0 -
ill probably still be here logging most days, but wont feel so bad when i take days off or go over0
-
First Im going STREAKING! :drinker: then yes I will keep up the counting becasue its a good habit to have.
First thing will be to be where LuLu is! :happy:
Then I will definitely use MFP to maintain.0 -
I'm going to eat an entire pizza, and maybe a chili cheese burger too and then wash it down with an oreo shake from Sonic. Then I will probably puke. Then I will continue to log what I eat and make sure that if I ever go up 5 lbs I immediately work to bring it right back down.0
-
Hit my goal and made a new one, then hit my goal and made a new one. I will stay here for maintaining also.. Otherwise I am afraid those pounds might slowly creep back on me.. ACK!!0
-
Still here after reaching my goal and plan on staying.0
-
I have a feeling I still won't be happy when I reach my goal.0

This is not temporary. I will always have MFP, I will always track my food and exercise. It is not a journey for me but a lifestyle.0
