I wish I'd noted the exact date I got down to my current weight, but this November or December will be my eight-year "thinniversary". :carrot:
My maintenance milestones * Around the four-year mark, I'd worn out some of my new, smaller clothes. That was huge for me! :carrot: * After I lost weight, I kept reading online that only 3-5% of dieters who lose a substantial amount of weight keep it off after five years - glad I never read that before I started losing! As the five-year mark grew closer, I became a bit nervous, thinking I'd regain 90 pounds overnight. Of course, the milestone came and went with no weight gain, so I felt I was really a Qualified Maintainer. :carrot: I think I'm addicted to the Dancing Carrot. :o |
:high: RedPanda! :carrot:
Congratulations on your milestones! And I love the carrot, too. :) and the :broc: |

Congrats on those six months, mars735!

Thanks, BillBlue! I figure another 20 months or so and I'll feel like a real maintainer :)

Well, it's been 1 year since I started my weight loss plan, and I have been maintaining for 8 and a half months, but I've got to say it is much harder with major stress. I now have parents with serious health issues and I am the only child left (my brother died almost 2 years ago) so it has all fallen to me. It's difficult to try to help them and yet still treat them with respect & dignity. :( At least they live very close by so I am able to help out as much as I can without major travel.

Happy New Year to you, too! Thanks for your good wishes. The rain's been Biblical for nine weeks here but I'm OK. Thinking about getting waterproof overtrousers though. :)
