Re: What happens when you reach goal??

I am pretty much at goal and I have been at a stage where I am not gaining or losing for about 5 months I think you just find the right balance of fluid and stick to it. I think I am ready for just a little more just to keep me on track as Im starting to snack more than I should. Hope this makes sense and helped a bit

Re: What happens when you reach goal??

That's exactly what I found too - I never had a particularly tight fill so I didnt hit goal in a blaze of glory, I just kind of petered out and left the fluid as was. I kept up the same diet and exercise routine, and over the past 18 months have had two very small top up fills to keep me on track as I began to get hungry and eat more to the point where I kept having to lose the pesky 2lb I'd keep putting on.

I still run heaps and am very dedicated to my exercise and I still try my hardest to keep to a healthy diet - but realistically, I do eat more naughty things now as its just impossible to keep the kind of motivation going that you have when just starting out.

I just never stop dragging myself back on track and remaining vigilant.

I haven't got there yet but I would think, you need to have the band loosened, but we keep exercising, and eating the same way that we learned in this journey.
