Hi girls,
I have been reading all your posts just not posting myself. Weight wise I am hovering around my target weight up 1.5lbs one week then down again the next but I suppose that is what maintenance is all about. I have remained at this weight now for about 3months so happy with that although I would like to drop a little more. Still having a shake for breakfast but otherwise just eating fairly healthily.
Health wise I have not been good over the last week or two. Yesterday I fainted in a restaurant in Glasgow and ended up taken to hospital in an ambulance! Turns out my blood pressure is dropping very suddenly if I get hot. Have to see my GP. Think it is because I have lost weight although I didn't lose the spectacular amounts you girls are all managing, just about 25 lbs.
I will continue to hover in the background and post when I feel the need.
Good luck with your continuing weight loss journey.

OMG I'm glad you're ok now, How frightening! Hope the docs go well and they can pinpoint it for you. You suffered dizzy spells with low blood sugar too didnt you. Just be careful and look after yourself xx
Still not feeling too great but see doc on Friday to try to get to the bottom of these fainting turns and dizzy spells. Yesterday I had a battery of tests done so heart is fine and blood sugar levels were fine.
Today is my 41st wedding anniversary, we are going out for a meal tonight, I still feel unwell but my weight is back to target so life is good. I will eat healthy tonight and may have a small glass of wine.
I decided to change my signature to reflect how many weeks I stay at maintenance. That is just over 3 months now I have stayed more or less the same weight only fluctuating by 1.5lbs from target. I am pleased with that as I feel it is stabilising my weight although I would really like to get down a few pounds more. I am beginning to sound like ED but don't have her will power unfortunately.
Happy Anniversary Mere, Wow congratulations. 41 years marriage is just wonderful, I hope you both enjoy your day/night. You are an inspiration in more ways than one.
I can't see sigs on my phone but I think it's a good idea just to move down a little so that you have breathing space between 10s.. You have just done amazing Mere. 3 months maintaining deserves much credit well done xx
Happy Anniversary Mere hope you have a lovely evening out and enjoy our meal. I love Marge's post I totally agree with it - you have great willpower. Well done on maintenance you are doing great Xx
