Fab picture and brilliant weight loss👍😊

I too can't wait to go swimming it's one of my main reasons to loose the weight and like yourself slowly getting there.

Are you aiming any lower or going to maintain now? I am told that's the hardest bit.

Best wishes enjoy the slim you! Bev

Congratulations on your loss - I'd love to have the confidence to get in the pool, it makes me feel sad as I feel my daughter is missing out it's definitely a great motivator for me! I'll get there though

Great achievement , well done. Dont be afraid of maintenance it is perfectly achievable if you keep an eye on things. Increase calories slowly, say 100 cals at a time until you get to a level where your weight stays more or less consistent for 3 months at least. ( I keep mine within a 0-4 lbs range)

Then if you wish,you can stop logging your calories and rely on what you've learned /visual portion size etc, but do weigh yourself once a week so that you can tackle any rogue pounds. This works fine for some but not everyone. Ive been maintaining for sixteen months but I admit I still do a rough calorie count most days even if only in my head. Each to his own.

Well done so far ☺

Well done joanne. I really hope I'll be able to stick at it this time. I would be over the moon if I lose what you have in about 6 months. You are a great inspiration.
