I know what you're going through Michelle, my motivation has been at an all time low lately,
although I did have mostly good days last week, this week things are a little different again.
What's important for me is that although I may be having the odd meal or food that isn't what I'd
normally eat OP, most of what I do eat now is much healthier than it was a year ago. Our weight may
take a little longer to come off, but it will eventually, we just have to be patient. Good luck over
the holidays and just make the best choices possible and you will succeed!

I guess you are right, overall the choices are healthier than 1 year ago, I am making a point of
eating loads of fruit and veg, this is certainly helping.

I've basically been maintaining since May. Some days I eat the most unhealthy things ever, but when
I sit down and actually think about what I'm eating I realize that over the last 6 months or so,
although I've not lost anything I've not gained either. I'm practicing maintenance and doing okay at
it. Once I'm at goal I figure I'll be an old pro and shouldn't have much of a problem staying there!
This is the longest I have maintained a certain weight in many years. I am definitely making better
choices now and sometimes I do it without even realizing it until later on.

Practicing maintainace is good, this is going to be the more difficult phase of the whole Weight
loss journey. I think yoiu have done an excellent job especially with all the stress you have had.

Thanks Michelle. I think I've done really well considering what the last 7 months have been like! I
haven't been really serious about the program with everything going on, so once the holidays are
over I'm going to get totally back OP and get rid of the last pounds.
