I am 2 years out myself and just never thought of maintaining but I think its more then time. I need to sop comparing myself to others also. I have done way too much of that over the last couple of years. I go to the nut in a couple of weeks. Time to get my stuff together.

Congratulations to you!!!

I had to step away from here in my head to finally come to peace with where I am and 'call it'. Once I did, I felt so freed.

For me, it was realizing that if I indeed did need to lose more to be happy, then I was going to have to trade that for more strict eating. I like where I am, and I like the way I am eating. As long as I am maintaining with the routine I'm doing now, I'll just take it.

There's a lot of stress we put on ourselves, comparing and always pushing for more, more more.

Not that maintenance is going to be easy. I know that's not true. But there is a certain amount of peace that comes to us I think.

You've done a great job, and you should be proud of yourself!
