Just sharing. My weighing scale is broken so I don't know if I've lost or gained some 😆 But my friends told me I should stop doing whatever I'm doing and just maintain. 😁I know it's kinda late but Happy New Year everyone. ❤️

    Buy a new scale, a good one. Your friends maybe right, but they may also be wrong. It should not be about how you look to your friends, but about what is best for you. Only a scale can tell you that while not costing an arm and a leg and oodles of time.
    I just say that, because some of my friends told me to stop losing weight when I was still officially obese. Friends are well-meaning, but they are not clairvoyant.
    In my own case, I bought a mechanical medical beam-style scale a few years ago, and it was one of the best investments I have ever made, arguably the single best investment where weight management is concerned.
    That said, you really do look great, so, well done.

    Wise decision. You already know what to do, so it is just a matter of patience from now on while you continue doing it.

    Some friends will also try to sabotage your progress... speaking from personal experience. Just be careful who you listen to.
