hey gorgeous. Im ooober pleased for you, isn't it the best feeling in the world?
My tips to you would be, Always go to class when you can.
give your self time to ajust. Being big, getting smaller.. and being at the end of that tunnel are completly different stages. Without learning who you are all over again, you could turn to food as a familiar comfort. If that makes any sence.
remember how hard you worked to get here, every secound of the day. Because not only will that build your confidence and your self belief, but it will also remind you when you know youv had one choclate too many, that is is a journey you never plan to take again.
Dont be uptight. As others have said, don't get too relaxed, and i still write everything i eat down, it means that i let myself have that dessert and that buiscuit, BUT.. if i write it all down and see that maybe i'd have one too many treats that week.. to rein it in, or just to know what to expect.
and i think this one is extremly important. Target is not the exact weight in which you hit and called target at. YOU have 3 pounds either way which you can chose to use. I'v been target -1, and target +3. and i lose and gain the same 2-3 lbs over and over. Because that keeps me in target. trying to stay the same is impossible, and will drive you insane.
i enjoy my week (still write everything down, even if its all naughty or good) and then review the result at the end, if i'v had a leaniant week and i gain , so what. we all know why, i know why.. and i'm at target + somthing still, so who cares.. you just follow it with a week of being a bit more carful, and drop whatever you gained the previous week.. thats what i do any ways. It makes me feel like iv made positive life changing healthy eating steps, because i can maintain within those 3 lbs either way, and still have lianiant weeks, and i know what to do when i need those couple of pounds back off... my aim is to not stay at 10 stone 1, it's to never have to pay again. because aslong as thats my target, i'l never have more than 3lbs to lose if i have any at all...
