I never strictly weighed and measured everything anyway, even all the while I was losing, so when I say 'logging all my calories' it's in my quite relaxed way, i.e. 'entering all that I eat in my diary and totalling it up at the end of the day so that I get an approximate estimate of what my calories have been'! But…

I've never personally used the Woo button, but isn't that a smiley face next to it? - in which case wouldn't the positive 'punch-the-air-YES-whoop' meaning would make more sense??

You could be my twin! I felt exactly the same way as you, victoria_1024 - I've been in maintenance the same amount of time, and also stopped counting calories back in April. I'm a lot less obsessive about logging now, but, I'm up a few pounds after eating whatever I wanted on summer hols - and temporarily back to logging…

I view logging as a tool - a really useful tool that helped me become aware of what and how much I was eating, and enabled me to adjust that to lose weight. I was never very strict with precisely weighing everything, but I was consistent and honest about logging everything for the entire time I lost the weight... and for…

I keep checking this thread - and I think you are my closest twin so far: 5'6 SW: 196lbs CW: 147lbs GW: 136-140lbs :smile:

Thanks @lorrpb - I know you're probably right..... It feels like it could be more than just water weight - it's been 3 weeks already! .......but I'm determined not to panic! :)

Excellent news Ingrid!! That's great! :smiley:

Hee-hee - this made me smile - the slogans on your t-shirts say it all! Good job on your achievement!

@cmuggridge I'm sorry you're feeling down at the moment. Your weight loss and your success in maintenance have taken an impressive level of dedication and determination - and you look so happy in your after picture and your profile picture. You should look back on your amazing achievement and be very proud of yourself. We…

This is exactly why I weigh for the record on a Friday - I always weigh my heaviest of the week on a Monday! Hope the new trend helps.

I'm hoping you're right :)

Oh no - I'm so sorry Ingrid - I could tell you really wanted to be able to donate. Please don't beat yourself up about it - it can't be helped. I really hope your own liver issue isn't anything too serious. Take care

I'm not formally checking in until Friday, but my first weigh-in since before the hols put me at 6lbs more yesterday than before I went away. I know this is mostly water-weight (I was already 1.4lbs lower by this morning), but WOW!? Needless to say, I'm back on it!
-
@Wysewoman53 @birgitkwood I felt exactly the same when I hit my goal. There's a really nice weekly thread running just for maintainers - lots of accountability and support - maybe join that? It's at least a way of feeling like you're still part of the MFP community and may even add a bit of motivation back in?…

Thanks Brenda!

Hi Rita, Congratulations on the weight loss! Your first contribution to the discussion is still there - it's on page one of the thread if you scroll back.

My favourite is: 'Discipline is a choice between what you want now and what you want most'.
