Thanks for the helpful info everyone. I've just got back from group and I have the new books so will have a good look at them and-
I made it !!
I'm quite worried about maintaining Craig- I know it's very tricky ! Also, I'm just not sure whether I'm really happy at this weight or whether I want to lose a bit more .
I think you're right Craig. I do keep on moving my target- still can't seem to accept that I am now a healthy weight. I feel brill for a few days then start to think I'm still fat. I think it was easier at over 24 stone coz I knew for sure I was fat !! It doesn't help that clothe sizes for women are so stupid. I want to be a 'proper' size 12 but quite often a 12 is too tight round the top but then again some size 10's are a perfect fit ( not many and there is no way I am size 10- only try them when other sizes are out of stock or they look massive !!!)
I have just realised that I weighed in at 2.5lbs under my goal anyway so I am already dangerously close to going outside the allowed margin. It's quite tight isn't it?

I'd wait a few weeks and decide whether you want to change it or not, I wish I kept getting dangerously close to falling out of the bottom of my target, I'm always playing around target or closer to being out of the top end of my target range. Wish I could get to 2lbs below and maintain that

That's very interesting and good to know! Thanks xxLetmeout, I wouldn't get too hung up on sizes, there is no such thing as a perfect size in my opinion. At my lightest weight I had clothes in sizes from a 10 to a 16 depending where I'd bought them from!
