Not talking a couple months of joining, being on plan and getting there first time....but for those who have joined, re-joined, failed, started again etc etc, when did you finally get there in the end?
I've been on a diet since i was 16/17, started with WW but much prefer SW once id discovered it. Have NEVER gotten to target and recieved that award, although ive got skinny enough to call it a target but i never could decided where to set that target and kept trying for 1 or 2 more pounds then losing the plot and regaining it. It's been 14 years now, lost count of how many times ive joined, currently sitting about 10 pounds above what i would like to say is my target and i could do it if i focused, just feel like ill never get there!
Please inspire me with similar stories that i will get there one day??

It took me 8 months to get to target and I've stayed in target range for 3 years.

I go to class every week and help out so that I have to get weighed and don't slip into bad habits.

The main thing is accepting that it's a change of eating habits for life rather than a 'diet'. Otherwise you just regain the weight.
