Hi all! I only have 20 lbs to lose until I meet my first goal weight. I'm not bragging - I'm terrified! I've spent months and months eating right, exercising, and imagining meeting my goal only to find myself fully confronting all of my weight-related issues here in the home stretch. 50 plus pounds ago I never thought I would make it this far, and now that I have I would love the support of a few people in the same situation.

Any questions, inbox me :)

    Congrats on your effort so far!

    I find I can start and maintain weight loss goals for short periods, however when I begin to feel more comfortable with my weight/body I loosen the reigns which can lead to weight gain. When this happens I throw in the towel.

    So far I'm committed to staying at it. This is the longest attempt I've ever made and it's only been 4 and a half months.

    I think the biggest key is being aware of your habits and MFP helps us by tracking those!

    Good luck on your last leg!!

    I am afraid to loosen my reins because I did it before and I don't want to let myself down again! Let's stay committed together, haha. 4.5 months is nothing to sneeze at!
