Congrats!
I have much the same goal as you. Last year my body got filled up with tons of fluids due to heart and thyroid problems so I gained 30 pounds as a result.
Even after losing 30 pounds worth of fluids, I still have a long way to go before I get to my ideal weight, I will have much less trouble with my diabetes when I finally get there. I am now where I was at age 24. I have not been at that weight since I was 24 and I'm happy about it. I am shopping for new clothes. *yay*
When I get there, I will have to work on keep from gaining weight for the rest of my life like you. I don't think diets really work because once you get off the diet, you go back to your old bad eating habits. Eating habits have to be changed for good.
Thanks!
That's why I didnt drastically change my eating habits too quickly..just changed things little by little...some days I slip back but important, I dont allow that happen on a daily basis.
