You reached your goal and now you're on maintenance. I'd celebrate too!

Thanks liv and fritzy! 😁 I am so happy. So the bit gained can't even make me sad. I know I've just begun my journey in maintenance, and I will be vigilant! 😁 😁

Great job 👏🏻Fasting is my solution too, after a big dinner, or a birthday party.😅

Safa, Thanks for the support! ❤️I too don't think of fasting after a special meal as punishment but just "resetting" or because my body just doesn't even need anything for a while. 😊😊

Girl- I ate last Sunday like I was going to the chair. I woke at 201.2. I scaled it back- like you are planning to do and I'm down 8.2 today. And I enjoyed every second of my feast/binge! Back to work is right- with extra energy! LOL 😊

You probably won't gain an ounce if that. Just check the scale in 2 days and you'll see what I'm saying', but return to your healthy eating schedule Melissa! lol!🙃💓💓

Princess, I think I will feel more energy to work out!! I've been a little weary lately. I don't have your guts to record my weight in my journal, but I am up 3.5 pounds in a day! Gosh!
Keyten, thanks for the insight and encouragement! I am going to be leaning heavily on y'all to help me these next months as I try to sort out life in maintenance.

Thanks so much, jaime and shirfleur! You guys are so kind. ♥️♥️😊I don't record my weight every day here, but I just made up a chart with September through December on which I will daily record my weight. It is hanging in the washroom next to the scale for everyone in my house to see! 😁 😁 Gotta have accountability one way or another!!!

Having each day be identical calories just isn’t real life, at least for me.

Congrats on reaching goal! You'll manage the maintenance; you know how to do this!

You have it figured out...life happens, birthdays, Thanksgiving, the odd pint of Ben & Jerry's (yup, that's doable), etc, etc. What you do after those events makes all the difference!

Me, myself, you are so right! Doesn't flexible show the image of "springing back" to what we know? 😃 Thank you, erika!!! I'm really going to give it my all. I have no illusions that it will be easy. 😁

Steven, I really appreciate your support. Thanks! As of this morning, less than a pound is hanging around from that gain. I'm gonna be you someday! "Yeah I've been in maintenance mode for... Forever! I'm still logging and counting and encouraging others!" 😁 😁 😁

I'm in the same boat Melissa. I didn't eat unhealthy yesterday but I grazed all day causing me to gain a little. Congrats on hitting your goal yesterday! Getting back to that will be no problem for you I'm sure!
