I am fairly close to goal, so I went to the Maintenance forum out of curiosity. It's AWFULLY quiet over there. For example, if you post something, it might be a week before you get a response, if you're lucky to EVEN get one. You should stay here. The Atkins forum is by far the most active one on this board.

Kudos to you again. Now the hard part is beginning.....keeping the weight off!

Congratulations!

I did the same thing, my goal was 167 and I it just wasn't happening. Got a weird virus that made me cramp and not want to eat, followed by a cold and my weight hit 165.5.

My biggest whooshes have been when I get sick.

Why do you suppose there is no forum on this site for maintenance? For a way of life, everyone seems here is trying to loose weight.

Groggy60, there is a forum here for Maintenance, however, I've posted in the past that it does not seem that there is much support for maintainers. I think also once people reach goal they are not really interested in hanging out here anymore - bigger, better, things to do.

Congratulations! May I just say that I can't wait to be in your shoes! You've done a great job!

I'm from the Baltimore area, too. I guess I'll recognize you if I see someone slender, gorgeous and walking with their feet two feet off the ground!
