Actually, I never really left. Even though I haven't posted for quite awhile, this newsgroup has been instrumental in my staying OP...for the most part. Several weeks ago I was within .4 of my WW Lifetime goal. I backslid a little...to the tune of 7 lbs. Maybe I was afraid of reaching goal? Then I'd have to maintain? I know it's the hardest part. I've continued going to meetings and read everyone's posts almost every day. In the past, a 7 lb gain would've meant total surrender. But this time I buckled down and have lost most of the 7. For everyone out there who is struggling....in the words of Winston Churchill....never, never, never give up.
Also, a NSV....the size 10's in my closet fit! Yay!
