35 pounds are gone so now to keep it off, right? You would think since it is so hard to loose it would be easy. And make no mistake about it, loosing weight sucks! I don't care what diet you choose, you simply CAN NOT eat what you want and as much as you want no matter what these diets advertise. I was a little disappointed when I met my goal that myfitnesspal did not post or do anything to congradulate me. No sirens, no whistles, and no posts. Not even fireworks. Just another post saying I lost another so many pounds so far. Sort of anti climatic. Anyway, congradulations to me. Now the real work begins.

    FANTASTIC! :happy: CONGRATULATIONS! :happy: WELCOME TO THE CLUB! :happy:

    It is a little anti-climactic to just say you've lost x.x pounds. Nevertheless, it is a MAJOR accomplishment. Also, hopefully you did this for YOU. If so, you can pat yourself on the back, run around like Rocky, or what ever you want.

    Still, you'll find maintenance is tough, too. You'll find you spent so much time watching what you ate to lose weight that it'll be hard to eat "crap" food to make up the extra calories. On top of that, you "may" want to lose a few extra pounds as insurance. Anyway, you want to do it, it's different but still tough. Effectively, you have made the new life commitment. So keep the course and enjoy the new you!

    Oh, by the way, CONGRATULATIONS! You are LITTLER and BETTER than before.
