Wow, Meg. Thanks soooo much for taking the time to write out the FAQs for us. Such a huge help to read all this info. I'm down 80.5 lbs. and am seeing where my skin will probably not recover, inner thighs, stomach, etc. I'm ok with looking good in clothes, not necessarily naked. I have a great DH who loves me no matter what, I feel very fortunate. However, I just wonder if I should just lose down to where I've lost 100 lbs and stop. I have thought about going down to 147 or so (-130 lbs.) but getting really scared now that I will be forced to have surgery. My lower body is two sizes larger than my upper body already. Not sure how it'll be later. So far I'm losing at the same rate all over so it may stay that way, 2 sizes apart.
Anyhoo, thanks again. May I ask if anyone here has stopped losing for fear of the way their body will look afterward? I am going to make a decision soon. Any advice will help. I need to decide because if I'm not going past 177 I am going to buy all my new clothes in that size. If I am going to keep losing, I'm just buying a few and wait til the last size to buy the rest.
Thanks!! All of you in maintenance are awesome, such inspiration for those of us in pursuit of that stage.
