I have lost six stones - I have done it.

It's so motivating to hear it going so well, and an exciting transition time for you to maintenance. I'm back trying to get on the packs wagon again, and to find my way through this last couple of stone. My head suddenly clicked yesterday, that this whole 80/20 thing applies. I've currently lost 80% of my target (or thereabouts), but I think I need to find a whole lot of determination to lose this last 20%. I'll get there :)

hi Cybill

I found the last stone really tough - it seemed to take ages and I was so bored and so uninspired with the rate of weight loss - slow, slow, slow. Then suddenly it clicked too and I was there.
If you can get past the first few days on three packets you will be there. Its much harder when its cold but easier with distractions - work or leisure. I am sure you will get there, you are made of strong stuff, you know where you are going and why you want to get there - no doubts in my mind, you are almost there already.

The 80/20 rules applies to organisations too - 80 % get on with it, 20% of the staff take 80% of your time - that's what happened today anyway but now time for tea.

best of luck, Cybill

Thanks GSQ :) I think I'd mistakenly thought that the last bit of weight would just drop off, but the 80/20 thing has helped me realise that it really will take 80% of the effor to lose this last 20% of the weight. So I'm putting everything into it now, to actually get through this last haul!
