Well today marks 22 months of maintenance for me and I'm thrilled to have another month under my belt. Yippee!
Is their a length of time needed to have passed to consider ourselves a true success?
I'm pretty dayum proud of myself for getting to this level and staying on top of my maintenance game. Yes, I work at it, but it certainly was do-able to get to goal and stay within my 6 pound safe buffer zone (3 lbs above goal or 3 lbs below goal) month after month. Look out 2 years, cuz here I come!
I know others have lost five times more weight than myself, yet I still feel like a minority sometimes. But hey, I lost weight and I'm maintaining too! Minor or not, I still consider it pretty major! This is why I wanted to make a post shout out, so others like myself or featherweights can see someones success from a "little losers" perspective!
Whether it's a 10 pound maintenance or a 100 pound maintenance, it still takes effort & we should be treated the same, regardless of how much we have lost.
Minor/major maintenance, one in the same?
