    WAY TO GO! Keep us posted on your "maintaining phase" I have 4 lbs to go and am getting nervous about how to stay there.

    Congrats to those who are on this journey!! It is hard but so worth it. Today I had three different people tell me that I looked good and that I looked thin. Not exactly what I was hoping for but I will take it.

    If there isn't a group we should start one. I haven't started to eat my maintenance calories yet as I am afraid that the weight will come back.

    Let's definitely start a maintenance group, I still struggle with that too and it would help us to support each other. Congratulations on reaching your goal, you look great!!!

    I have that same fear. The maintenance calories seem pretty high.

    My maintenance calories so seem really high. I tried eating them the other day and I ended up gaining a couple pounds back so I went back to my "reduced calories" and figured I would just up them slowly until I could just maintain.

    Congrats on your success!! I've seen posts from others who have gone on maintenance (a distant dream for me!) that they upped their calories slowly, like adding a couple hundred one day - staying there for a couple days/a week then adding some more. Good luck - you guys should start a maintaining group for support - that would be great!
