9 months out, 94 pounds down

Dec 22, 2011

My weightloss is starting to bottom out, and that's okay.
I'm 3/4 of the way through the honemoon period where we lose and lose, so the end is in view.

On the bright side, I have reached my surgeon's goal and am feeling well.
I'd like to lose another 5-10 pounds, just to be secure in my new size 12, and to have reached the weight I was most comfortable with when I was younger.

It would "feel good" to be in the 140's or 130's, psychologically. And I do believe that the psychological part will be the most important to my continued well-being in the months to come.

After all, now is when I am going to face the real choices. Losing the weight was one thing, and the tool has worked.
Now, my head has to be retrained, and that's much harder.

Like everyone else, I fear regaining the weight more than anything else. If I should fail at this as well as every other weightloss initiative in my life, I will plunge into a depression I may never get out of - so I am resolved to do anything I must to keep in control of my appetites.
