My word you look wonderful! Ugh I want to know all the secrets, all the trick, how you kept yourself motivated when you just wanted to eat whatever, whenever, everything.

You really do look great!!!

Thank you for sharing the details of your story. That is why I joined this site to see actual people losing weight. I hate the mags that have skinny girls with abs. Not because I am a hater but because they have always been thin. It is not impressive to see a skinny chick get toned. My highes weight ever was 220 lbs. I was so chunky all of my clothes were tight.

I have maintained my current weight for at least a year now. I am ready to reach a new goal!

Thanks for your help!

Sw: 206
Cw: 204.6
Gw: 190


My Goals:
No food after 6pm
No soda
No candy or chips

Biggest hurdle to overcome in weightloss: Drinking. I go out with people all of the time and the calories from alcohol are killing me.

What is different this time in your weight loss efforts than in the past: Vacation coming up. Can't put it off like before.

Anything else you would like to share with us: My boyfriend, whom I have lived with for 4 years, is a chef. He cooks constantly, and he tries to cook healthily and support me, but I feel like so much of our lives revolve around food. We watch cooking shows, we cook together, we talk about food... It's hard. But we are very active and getting closer to our ideal weights!

Thank you so much, Geraldine!

It has been a wild journey, but I'm proof that maintenance can be accomplished even through life events. Marriage, moves, economy, illness, injury, babies- the last 8 years have brought all of it and I'm still here. I don't post as much as I should, but I think that being a part of this community through it all has been one of the threads that holds it together for me. I'm not perfectly on plan 24/7, but I've found a rhythm that I continue to work to maintain.

Thanks again for the kind words

This is a great way to looking at changing and maintaining our new WOL. I often find myself impatient with losing weight, but you hit the nail on the head! Thanks for the inspiring words!
