I am more concerned about slipping back into old habits to be fair as I know what I am doing and I don't want it to turn into a regular thing. I just need to get my head back into focus and not let it get out of hand as I'm not going there again!

I am in exactly the same place. Maintained for a year but recently I have fallen back into a few old habits knowing full well I couldn't get away with it for long. Got weighed this morning and I have put 1lb on. I know it's just 1 but it is from being greedy because I know what I have eaten. I am going to lose it because…

Congratulations. I can relate to some of your post. I have lost 58lbs. UK size 20 to 10. I am convinced I have a big tummy and still disregard some clothes I like when I try them on because I think I look fat in them. I have also had negative comments from some people, but I must say mainly the ones who have tried for many…

I think I will have to count forever but I can live with it. I have lost 57lbs and if this is what I have to do to keep it off, so be it.

Congratulations. Quoted this post as I can't say it any better!

52lbs gone so it's a yes from me.

Loyalty - but if anyone crosses the line once too often I just turn around & walk away.

Well done. Nice progress!

This is a tool for me. It keeps me on track! I am not interested in what anyone else eats so why would someone who doesn't know me be interested in what I eat? And yes I log the bad days as well as the good.

I'm not sure if this is my imagination but I am 5lbs away from my original target and I feel so much hungrier now than I did before.

Congratulations on your loss. I'm in the same place. Down 51lbs. 5 to reach my original target. I am losing about 0.5 lbs a week now. I just keep at it & unfortunately have had to accept this is the way it is with the last few lbs to go.

Congratulations. :)

5ft 5 53 (next week - ouch! :( ) SW 190 CW 140 GW 130 ish Really struggling now as it is so slow, frightened of losing motivation.

I went out in a skirt and high heels this weekend. I actually have lovely legs. I would never have guessed that one!! :D

You will lose some friends who see you as a threat! Just let them go.....

I had the nibblies yesterday. I knew I wasn't hungry but they wouldn't go away so I had a couple of crispbreads with cottage cheese. I actually ignored the crisps, cake & chocolate! Sent me a bit over my calories but at least I went for the healthier option. Really enjoyed it & it satisfied my craving to just eat something.

5ft 5 SW 190 CW 140 GW 133 ish!

Just keep at it. It has taken me a year to lose 50lbs but it's gone for good. I sometimes get discouraged when I see people who have lost more in less time, but as long as I keep losing slowly I am happy.

And hips too! :D

One day at a time, 1lb at a time was the best advice I got on here. I didn't think I could do it either. I am now 7lbs from my GW. I will still be here when you are in the same place. Good luck, you go girl!!

I was in an old theatre last weekend with very small seats. I had a bottle of water in my hand and couldn't work out where to put in, then I realised there was room to put it on the seat next to my legs. A few months ago I would have filled this seat and been very uncomfortable.

Brillliant. Thank you. I have been logging for a year and never knew this!

I was 49lbs heavier than I am today.

I think I will have to log every day of my life even when I get to my goal. I can live with it, as to me it is better than the alternative, which would probably be putting all the weight back on.

48lbs gone, 7lbs to go to Onederland. It's very slow now but I am happy and frankly amazed to be here. Never give up!! :)

Proud, happy, amazed!

I have a picture of a model in a fabulous outfit which I would love to wear downloaded on my pc at work. I click on it when I am dying for a biscuit!

Walking is wonderful & something we can all do to suit our abilities. Go for it! I I would rather be outside in the fresh air than walk on a treadmill in a gym.

I really hope this is true. It has taken me 9 months to lose 46lbs, 8lbs more to go to initial GW, but I do sometimes get disheartened when I see others losing so much more quickly.
