  1. Updated goal to 145--the highest "normal" for my height. I am 10 pounds away from that, and I am finding my body settling into 155,. I'd like to get off this plateau and see the other side, understanding my maintenance weight may fluctuate between 145-150. Here's hoping this week brings another pound loss! :)

      I updated my goal wt a couple months ago, thinking it would motivate me more, seeing as I would be 10 lbs closer. It went from 130 to 140. At the time, I was 155. Now, 2 mths later, I've lost a whopping 2 lbs. I've been bouncing between 150 and 155 forever. I'm 2 lbs from a normal bmi (24.90) and while I'm pretty comfy in my size 8 jeans (down from a 22), I really feel the need to make my goal eventually. My primary care thinks I should try to maintain for a while and then tackle the last few lbs. I've just never in my life NOT wanted to lose weight so I don't know what it feels like to want to stay the same.

      I know exactly what u mean. Going from a 22 to a 14 was amazing. I don't even remember fitting into a 12 - skipped straight over it and into a 10. I'm now in an 8 (a few 6's here and there). Wish I would kept 1 of my size 22 jeans to compare. Got rid of all my jumbo clothing as I went...

       

      Good luck!

      Just out of curiosity, do u have a band? I did much vomiting when I was banded for almost 4 yrs. Got so used to it it was 2nd nature to me. Since being sleeved I've only vomited once, cuz I pushed past my limit and ate way too much. Boo on the vomiting...
