NYNY - Fred, Oct 8th

My leader will be at goal for 35 years this upcoming May. She still
continues to journal and believes that is what keeps her on track and keeps
her 110 lbs off.

Aw, shoot Fred. What a bummer. You know how to get rid of those two lbs
though. Next WI will be different. Good luck!

Good idea, that journal. I find I'm lost without it! Good luck next
week!

It costs only TIME to attend and so far, I'm willing to continue to
expend that. I think with the holidays just around the corner, that
attending will be a reasonable idea. Besides, I'm just two or three
weeks shy of my one year anniversary. I will see that through at
least. While a lot of the meetings are repeitious, I can deal with
that so far.

Here's to attending for a few more months anyway.

have an idea what I can actually eat and stay around this weight. Or less.
I really would like to be under 160, meetings would no doubt help with that
little endeavor. I think without em, I might just coast.

Other than when I went out-of-town, I have been pretty much weighing
weekly even though we do not have to. I did go to one meeting not
expecting to weighin but my leader convinced me after she noted that
they get paid per body and that bodies only counted if their official
booklet (the one ww keeps) shows attendance. So I have weighed in
each time I go. It may help keep you accountable if you think that
you need that accountability.

I figure the Journal will help be see what I really am doing
snacking-wise lately. The snacks have been creeping up.

Yes - a concerted effort is necessary to maintain. I know part of the
issue is sameness but also I think I can attribute some of it to
comfort foods to overcome mourning. I also know the seasonal change
has not been something I have been looking forward to. Multiple
reasons but not acceptable as excuses. I think journalling will help.

Yeah, I think I'm going to have to a lifetime journaler after I reach
my lifetime weight. It's just too easy for me to get unconscious about
the amount of food I eat. Too bad about the gain, but hey! I'm
realizing from observing all you lifers that there're just as many
lessons to be learned to keep the weight off as there were in getting
it off.

Yes - still under goal. And two weeks ago, it was 2.4 up. So I think
that maybe this is part of Maintenance. A bit up. A bit down. And
some holding ground, too.

Sorry about the gain, but a BIG congrats on another week UNDER goal!!!

Sounds like a good idea... journalling confronts you with the reality of
every bite :-)

Still under goal which is a good thing. I think lifetime maintenance is all
about bouncing around a bit. Surely there's no one out there who stays
exactly the same weight every single day?

I still journal haphazardly, and if I really want to get down to my personal
goal I'm going to have to focus on it a bit more. It's a great tool to have
for the times you feel like you're starting to lose that control.

I am finding it very nerve wracking to stay in one spot. Even though I want
to go down a bit more, I find myself Also wanting to eat a bit more freely,
have days when I don't carry the journal or write in it..... I get to
"decide" if I am going to weigh in or not this week. It is a mine field. I
have a sneaking suspicion that if I just turn my back for a minute I am
going to get bit in the behind.

Now that I think about it, the only Real reason I wanted to get all the way
to goal was to be able to go for free. So I should now not go? I think
not
