I finished losing 40 lbs six months ago and I have maintained my weight successfully. How are you making out in reaching your weight loss goal? What are the major roadblocks you are facing? Cheers

    Congrats, @japlazas! That is amazing, inspiring, wonderful. You did fantastic work, and I hope you are proud of yourself!

    My major roadblock is continously sabotaging myself. I get on a roll and then I fall off. It is very discouraging!

    I agree, I also self-sabotage! I do well for a while then just fall off the wagon
    Congrats on your loss, that is amazing!

    I too have lost 40 since March 1. But slowed down this December and today back where I was on December 1 !!! I still have 37 more to go to my goal of 200... I never went over my 1760 per day, so not sure why I am slowing down...

    thanks @jen11411 , @woznube7 ; It is certainly not an easy task but it is the type of goal that once you see it is possible it makes you feel very proud of yourself.

    The key is to have a good start. If you have a good start you build a good foundation. It is like building a house or a building, right? The house will last forever if the base is strong enough. When you reach a milestone make sure you keep notes in terms of what you did. I offer refer back to the notes I wrote when I started in terms of what was working for me. These are things that we have to go back to often. Thanks @NAbramovich
