May 8th - Getting scarey

Now I know this isn't going to make sense to a lot of people, but I'm starting to feel a bit scared. I had weigh-in tonight and again made good progress, but now that I'm getting damn close to goal, I'm faced with the idea of trying to maintain my weight. Not just the 6 weeks after I reach goal to get life time membership with WW, but the *BIGGER ISSUE* of trying to maintain my weight for the long haul. I know from talking to other people that it's easy to get complacent and fall back into old habits. I almost feel like I've found it so easy to lose quickly, I'm just as likely to pile it back on again quickly too. That might be an illogical thought, but it's there nonetheless.

So, there's my whinge. I know that I have skills and knowledge (thanks for the pep talk nessajane, it may have been short but it was what I needed) and these will be the tools I need for me to maintain. I guess that it's just going to take me a while to believe it deep down. Until then I'm just going to have to be as vigilant in maintaining as I have been in losing. So, it's now 1.8kgs to go, and counting...
