I weigh 133! I don't remember ever weighing 133. (Maybe high school?) I know I weighed 140 at my wedding 41 years ago. (Yes, I am OLD, but I don't feel old). I am totally pumped, want to weigh 130 to climb my mountain in August and know I can do 3 more pounds. I had maintained my goal weight of 140 for 5 years, and then started a little gain. Got on that right away.
Probably the main reason I needed to take my goal of 140 down is I've shrunk since surgery, less than an inch, but shrunk. At my current height 140 is the highest weight in the healthy BMI range. I needed some cushion!
Maintenance is not for wimps friends. Those of you losing, have fun! I really didn't have to be that careful during the losing phase, the weight just fell off. Not so anymore. Now it's a little work, but still fun and rewarding to see the results.
And if I hear one more time, "I had a friend who lost all her weight with surgery and then gained it all back," I will punch them. No way.
