New low.
 
Hit a new low of 126.8 yesterday. Which is so near my target 126.0. 😁
Now I have to learn to maintain rather than lose.

Hi Snowpup. I belong to the Maintainers' board on 3FC. Feel free to join us there. We can give you plenty of suggestions for maintaining, which is fundamentally a lot like losing. You just add back calories about 100 or so for a week or two at a time, and see where you get no net movement on the scale. Really important not to change the types of food you are eating, or the ratios of macronutrients (carb/protein/fat) for awhile, or the scale weight can fool you due to increased (or decreased) water and glycogen retention during that time.

Maintaining May prove to be harder than losing🤔
Thanks for the advice. I'll take it on board. Reached my target of 9 stone 2 days ago.

Back to using tools like 3FC. I'm not doing such a hot job of maintaining.

I hit a low of 129 last winter, then ate myself up to 140 in mid August. 138 this morning on the scale. 1200 calories a day again. I look tubby at 140 (of course many don't, but I do) and I CANNOT REGAIN!

Still bouncing around in the 130s. Hopefully the New Year brings a new lower decade for me! Cheers everyone!:coolsnow::newyear:

Hi Lioness. I would like to get out of the 130s too.

CW: 138.2

PandaCupcake 02-04-2018 12:15 PM

I weighed in at 139.4 this am, so joining this thread.
How’s everyone doing?

flower1 02-04-2018 02:34 PM

Hi Panda - glad you joined this thread and welcome to 3FC:) It looks like we are the same height and have the same goal weight.

133.4 today

fofo_bunny 02-05-2018 08:37 PM

Hey all! I'll join in the chat too if you don't mind! I don't think I'm actually into the 130's quite yet, but:
1) I don't have a reliable scale at the moment (batteries have been ordered on Amazon!)
2) I should be in the low 140s and I haven't seen an active 140s thread anywhere recently, and this has a few people posting recently!
3) I'm sure you'll all welcome me with open arms, riiiiiight?

Anyway, hi! I've been stalking 3fatchicks for AGES, but haven't ever really posted at all. I feel like I should start posting to help motivate myself, right?

Welcome to 3FC fofobunny - glad you could join us.
