Hi,
As some of you know I had a bit of a conflict at the chemist last week as a new girl told me I had to come off TFR when I lost 2 more pounds. That would have been me at 8st 8 and a BMI of 23.5.
I have always wanted to loose 50 pounds and get to a BMI of 21.5 which means I would weigh 7st 12.
So I called the chemist today and had a really good chat with him. He said he considers a good healthy range to be between 21 and 25, I told him I want to be 21.5 and he said that was fine but he would normally recommend that someone my height should come off TFR at 8.5stone. He knows that I am especially focused and also sensible and we came to compromise that I would come off at 8stone 2.
I am happy enough with this. I know I can loose 4 pounds on maintenance and get to my target anyway. SO I am still focused on loosing my 50 pounds.
He made a note of my agreed target on my file so that everyone knows and there is no confusion.
He was really nice to me and I explained that I just wanted to agree a sensible weight with him because I am starting to get a lot of negative vibes from people. He told me not to listen to anyone - and that almost all comments made to me are made out of jealousy. He said as long as I have a BMI 21 - 25 - I am healthy and not to let other people's opinions effect me. He was really supportive and very impressed by my results.
He also recommended that I get a refeed CD tomorrow and listen to it a few times over the next couple of weeks so that I totally understand the implications of refeed and maintenance. He said it is quite technical but it is good for me to educate myself on the whole process so I completley understand it all.
He also said he would recommend I do maintenance for 6 weeks - to give my body time to adjust properly. So I am happy to do this.
I am wondering what I will loose tomorrow - as I weighed 5 pounds lighter on the beauticians scales - if I loose 5 pounds tomorrow at the chemist - that will bring me to 8st 5 - which means I only have 3 more pounds to loose until I get to my agreed target! That means that next week could be my last week on TFR! Wow! Just have to wait and see how I actually go on their scales tomorrow!
This week I have really noticed some massive changes in my body - I feel so excited to be close to my goal!
Thanks again to u all for ur support and encouragment!
