March/April weight loss thread

[Triskeliongirl]

Susan, your comments are interesting. You will see your skin firm up over time. I went from 175 to 140, and have maintained now for 2 years. And even though my weight hasn't changed during maintenance, I have slowly but surely seen a return of my skin tone (I even bought some bikinis last summer and think I look good in them, something I never thougt my 51 year old, had 2 children and was formerly overweight, body would be able to wear).

I go back and forth with the tracking. When I don't track, I find my weight goes up a little, but I have a range. When I get to the high end of the range I track and it goes back down. I am now thinking to maybe always track, so rather than gaining and losing and gaining the same couple of pounds over and over again, I might even be able to go lower. I just got a new program that syncs between my palm treo and desk top, making it really easy to enter things. And it tracks exercise as well as food.
