Are You Lonely at Goal?
Congratulations! Getting to your goal weight is a huge accomplishment.
When you reached your goal weight, I'm sure you were incredibly proud, excited, and relieved.
Yet have you found that life at your goal weight isn't all it's cracked up to be?
You have probably quickly discovered...
- Almost all the focus is on weight loss. There's not much support or information available for those of us at goal.
- You feel a bit lost. People have stopped noticing your weight loss. You wonder what comes next.
- You have to work just as hard to maintain your weight (if not harder) but you get less recognition for your efforts.
- You don't know too many other people who are at their goal weight, so you feel isolated.
I Didn't Know It Would Be Like This...
When I first accomplished losing 100 pounds, I was thrilled, excited, overjoyed, and yes a bit scared.
After a lifetime of wanting weight loss more than anything else, it seemed like a dream come true to finally be at my goal weight. I praised God. I was relieved and excited.
And yet.
I quickly discovered that there's not much support for people living life at their goal weight.
- I didn't know anyone else IRL (in real life) who was maintaining a 100+ pound weight loss.
- I used the Weight Watchers system but most of the support and materials were geared toward people trying to lose weight.
- Without the scale moving down, I felt a void I wasn't expected. What should I focus on next?
- I was anxious. Even though I had put a lot of healthy habits in place to lose the weight, I still worried that I would somehow wake up one night and have gained it all back.
- I had a good idea of what maintaining involved, but no one had given me steps or strategies to make it happen.
