Lemme guess. The ones who are telling you not to lose any more weight.....are they overweight? Jealous? Pay them no heed. You will hit your low, no matter what you do, then you will get your magical bounceback. Usually about 20 pounds for us smaller people. And my 20 pounds went exactly where I wanted it, in the booty. I'll be waiting to see where yours lands. Happy Bounce Back, baby!
When was the last time you even dared to wear horizontal stripes? It was loosely suggested that I get down to 155; and I did. I looked sick. That was the number that would give me a "normal" BMI. Dr. Houston did comment about my gain back from that 155 and said he was OK with it. As if I GARA about what he thinks. I feel great. I'm also quite happy with my appearance. Don't think I'm brave enough to do horizontal stripes though. Well, at least not around my butt.
Even when I was built like a mayonnaise jar I still wore horizontal stripes. Im a rebel. Plus I was in denial thinking I had the perfect shape. Lol
Jesus, Mary & Joseph. Whenever someone told me to "stop losing" or "gain some weight back", I'd look at them and give them the silent stare. Like, how in the hell am I supposed to do that? I eat non stop as it is. You lose what you're going to lose, then you bounce back. I don't think there's much I could have done to stop my weight loss. I did eat Reese's Peanut Butter cups when I dipped down to my all time low. I can't stand the smell of them now.My surgeon told me to lose about 10 % below goal then bounce back. That is what I hope to do. I am still in the "will I be one of those people who won't reach goal" phase.
