Default Any new/newish maintainers?

So I got my mid-month measurements done today and it looks like I've reached my final goal and I'm very happy with my body/stats!

I am however a little hesitant about moving into maintenance so I was wondering if there are any other maintaining newbies out there?

We have maintainers at all stages, just starting and veterans. Everyone is welcome. We learn from each other and cheer each other on. Come on in , I promise nobody feels superior because they may have been at maintenace longer than you.

Welcome Sunnyside! I consider myself fairly new to maintenance as I reached my goal weight last July.

I'll see you in the chats!

Congrats, SunnySide! I always feel an automatic kinship with other tall women, perhaps because being tall was such a big part of my identity growing up. Now I love it, but at the time I would have given up five years of life to lose five inches.
