Well done @SpiralSister, such a fantastic achievement! That definitely deserves a celebration.
I am still very slowly losing. Another 200g off, which is about half a lb, which doesn't sound as bad as 200g. So I am now 69.1kg, which is bang on a BMI of 26. A few weeks ago, I was trying to stay in the 60s, now I just want to get to the 68s, so I am progressing.
I am definitely eating more, but not rubbish, and I still weigh food/go with healthy options. I am eating a lot less meat, and obsessed with jarred beans, protein and avoiding ultra processed foods. Although, I have got a cake in the oven at present so I am not an angel🤦♀️🤣 It's the first one I have baked since starting on this journey, and I am allowing myself treats and I trust myself to have a slice, maybe another tomorrow and then freeze the rest. This feels like what maintenance will be like, and is sustainable. That being said, I may well be a bit stricter with myself in a month or so, using this time to tread water, so I can keep going for longer. Hopefully in this phase, my skin will catch up, and my body will reset, which I think can boost losses in the future. I am also conscious of not losing muscle, and a spell at maintenance might support some muscle growth.
I am definitely at the point now where people are giving my funny looks if I mention needing to lose the belly fat or similar. It feels a bit invalidating though, as some people are insistent I don't have a belly overhang/no belly, and in my leggings it doesn't look like much, but there is a definite skin fold/overhang there, I can see it with my eyes, and it's still fat not just loose skin!! 🤦♀️ Then people say, well, most women have that if they have had children, which is true, but it doesn't mean we can't try to improve things. I won't be having surgery or any procedures though, it doesn't bother me enough to go that far!
