147 days on 100% TFR and down to 147lb target!! :D

[uklady]

Well this number thing made me smile big time. I have been on 100% TFR for 147 days and according to my scales I have actually reached my 147lb target!!!!!!! How crazy is that? lol (I have an official weigh in tomorrow morning though so we will see if they agree with that) Anyway, the point is.... this is my final TFR day... not because it's Christmas but because I finally got to where I want to be..... almost 6 and a half stones lighter than I was when I started this in July It's been the most incredible journey.... both physically and emotionally. I want to thank EVERYONE on this site for their support, but especially in this 100% section. All my friends from when I started have gone on to the refeed section, or they've gone on to do their own thing.

I would just like to wish everyone LOTS of success with LT, especially those of you who have decided to stay 100% over Christmas.... that sort of determination WILL get you to where you want to be!!! (To those of you who are refeeding for Christmas and getting back on to it afterwards... all the best to you too xx I know it's the right choice for some)

Anyway, good luck my 100%-er friends.... sending you lots of love and hugs from a very slim uklady (22/24 down to a size 12!!!)

Linda, what an inspiration!
Good luck with refeed and have a fab Christmas x x

Well done, now comes the true challenge of maintaining the weight loss. If you continue a higher protein and low carb and fat ratio (ie vegetables and lean meat like protein and fish) like I did after LT, you will continue to lose weight.

I totally agree, that the greater challenge is to adjust my previous eating habits to be able to maintain. In fact it will be interesting to see how hard/simple it is xx

lol Lilac...'skinny minny' is just one of the many names Im being called at the mo ... they make me smile. (It's still odd to realise they're actually talking to me when they say that!) The funniest one was a guy said 'Linda, if you stand sideways and stick out your tongue, you'll look like a zip!!!!!!!!' Hahaha ...just makes me feel good, even though it's silly

Have just been reading your thread. You are an inspiration! I have 30 lbs to lose, and I'm starting on Tuesday next. i was thinking that that's so long with only lipotrim to eat - but when I see what you have achieved I think surely I can lose my 30 lbs.
Thanks so much for posting - it really helps to read it.
