Final push to goal

  • Almost there! I saw 119.8 on the scale this morning, and have lowered my GW for the last time (I've been lowering in 5 pound increments since I reached normal BMI at 135). I'm aiming to maintain at 115-120. Woo hoo!!

    Some days, I can't believe I've made it this far. I've finally gotten the courage to post an avatar pic, and I'm really happy with the progress I've made. I have down days and tough days and confusing days as I try to assimilate my "new" identity with who I was for 32+ years, but I'm currently in a really good headspace, so I'll take it.

    I'm not planning on rushing these last few pounds. I'm on Week 5 of the c25k this week, and I'm a little intimidated by it, not going to lie. I'll continue my basic strength training 2-3 times a week. And I'm eating 1350-1450 cals a day of clean food, with the occasional "treat."

    Thanks for all the support, chickies! I can't wait to post my goal thread soon!!

    Funny, I just posted a topic about this -- "When is enough enough". LOL I read your post after I wrote mine and was happy I wasn't the only one who might do this!

    Congratulations on your success and I am absolutely THRILLED for you. I can't wait to post what you just wrote one day! :-)

    And you are absolutely beautiful!
  • Keep up the great work and sounds like you have a sane approach to finding your sweet spot.

    Keep up the great work and love that smile btw
  • You look great, and super petite. Congrats on your accomplishment!
