Extra Easy Target members - keeping to target

[Rochelle1]

I am finding it difficult too. As of last Thursday i am a pound below target range so need to have a gain this week or start paying. My problem is that my target is top of my healthy bmi so i could drop it a bit. When i set target i just wanted to be below 12stone though it was a pretty arbitrary decision. I don't want a gain- after 18months of losing weight, purposely putting it on seems wrong.

First of all well done! I hope I can be the same as you soon. 2st 12lbs to go til I reach 11st but might go lower yet.

You can drop your target weight, as long as you have 7lbs to play with within the healthy bmi range. I think when I get to 11st I might call target and enjoy it for a few weeks then if I feel I can lose a bit more ill reset it. Such a mind field this getting to target isn't it! Xx

How many lbs either side of target are you allowed?

3lbs either side xx

I thought that initially but to maintain your target will require you to deliberately put weight on sometimes. It does seem strange at first but I have found it impossible to exactly maintain easy week so it's a case of making adjustments up or down to stay "in the zone".
I think of it like a plane that has dropped in altitude now trying to stay there. Just keep moving the joystick back and forth to stay there
