The blood pressure number is the part I keep waiting on for myself. How long into it did yours start reading normal?
Your journey
10 lbs down - todays mindset-shift share
My bp numbers moved before the scale did too, that part surprised me more than anything. Three months holding is the real win here.
bP coming into range happened for me too, somewhere around the point where my clothes stopped fitting right. That number on the cuff felt better than the scale did.
Three months holding is the part I keep eyeing from here, since I'm still in the losing stretch myself. Did you change anything about how you eat once you switched to maintenance, or did it mostly stay the same?
honestly blood pressure normal is the part I keep waiting on, mine hasn't moved yet.
Only down about a pound myself so the BP part is what I'm watching, mine hasn't budged yet. How long into it did yours start coming down?
three months holding is the part I keep coming back to, since I am down about 34 and still in the losing phase. Do you find maintenance takes more planning than the loss did?
Mine came down too once the weight was off, and that normal reading on the cuff did more for my head than the mirror ever did.
Three months holding is the part I keep coming back to, that's the real win here. My own bp numbers haven't budged yet at 22 lbs down so I'm curious when yours actually crossed into normal.
Mine dropped into normal range somewhere past thirty pounds too, and it stayed there once the loss leveled off. The holding part is what I keep an eye on now.
How did you handle the mental side once the scale stopped being the scoreboard? That transition is the part I'm least prepared for
Three months of holding is the part I keep circling back to, since the scale dropping was almost the easy bit for me. Curious whether the BP staying normal was what made maintenance feel real, or if it was something else entirely.
Three months of holding is the part I keep failing at, I get twitchy whenever the scale sits still for two weeks
Three months holding is the part I keep hearing is hardest, and at 18 down myself I'm starting to see why. The BP settling only after the scale went quiet lines up with what I've noticed too, the numbers moved around while things were still dropping.
Ten down and holding for three months is the part I keep failing at, I get a decent stretch then creep back up a couple. How did you lock in the maintenance side?
honestly, three months holding is the part I keep coming back to. I'm still losing, nowhere near maintenance yet, and reading that the BP numbers settled before the scale did makes me feel less crazy for watching the cuff instead of the pounds.
