Man, I really didn't expect to get into the 120's. For the past month, I've been trying to maintain and have held a steady weight of 130-131. To see 129.2 this morning, I was very surprised, but I'm not going to get upset about it. My husband told me to be careful. He doesn't want me losing too much and I agree. But 129 isn't unhealthy for my frame. Below 121 would be and I have absolutely NO intentions to get down that far!! I'm not TRYING to lose weight but I do tend to have a deficit most days of the week because i'm just so scared I'm going to gain. 3 days a week, I eat between 1800-2100 but the rest of the week is between 1500-1700. Maintenance is 2100-2200, so sometimes the deficits aren't really that big. IF by some chance I keep losing (but at this rate, it's really only .5-1lb a month), then I'll try to go up more.

I must admit...I'm a bit nervous now that I have hit my goal weight and need to maintain. I've spent that last 16 yrs trying to lose weight and I don't even remember what it's like to maintain lol. Even when I was a senior in high school, I felt "chubby" so I was drinking my mom's Herbalife shakes for breakfast and lunch. I'd fill a 20oz bottle and take it to school. I also took the "green and beige" pills every once in a while (they were for curbing hunger and boosting the metabolism). I don't remember much about what I ate while in college. I think I was just so busy, I didn't really have much time to think about food. I was going to school and working 2 jobs. Gone from 5:30am to 10pm. And then I got married and within the first year, I gained 20lbs.....so basically, since then, it's been an up and down roller coaster. I've had 3 kids and never reached my desired goal until yesterday!

I'm kind of scared now. I don't want to end up gaining again and hopefully, continuing the use of my Fitbit and logging my intake, I'll be able to stay strong and hold on to this weight. I know I won't be going up to maintenance calories right away. Maintenance cals are 1800-2000 (or more if I have a good workout). For the past month, I've been eating between 1350-1500 so I think I want to slowly bump up to maybe 1500-1600 for a few weeks and then go maybe to 1700. I might stop at 1700 and eat that during the week and then not count on the weekends. I'd be MINDFUL on the weekends, but not be so strict either. IF I end up losing more weight, I doubt it'll be much and of course, I'm not going to cry if I do lol, but I can bump up my intake again if need be. I just don't want end up looking sick since I already have people telling me I'm too skinny. A guy from church asked me if I wear a corset?! HA!!! Um, no! I've just always had a very small waist and big hips. And every week, he makes a comment about how skinny I am and jokes about how my husband must not be feeding me (hey, I'm the cook around here and I eat plenty!). I'm not a stick! I'm far from it. People are just not used to me being this small. I'm 5'3" 33 yrs old and 130lbs. There are no bones sticking out anywhere and I do NOT have a thigh gap! lol I HAVE noticed more wrinkles on my face, unfortunately, especially up by my eyes.
