Default Im back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi I have finally managed to get myself back here. I used to be a part of the furniture a long while ago, but fell off the wagon, and disapeared for a while....

BUT, Im back now, and GUESS WHAT ???? I have lost a total of 50 kgs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been following the Cohens diet, and have managed to loose that weight over the past 12 months My BMI is normal now, I am at my goal, and I feel like a new person.... I still want to loose another 5 kg, thats why Im here, I have been struggling to loose it, and have come here for some moral support ......

I am looking forward to chatting with you guys, you were always so welcoming, and helpful...

Karen x

Well done to you...

I guess HERE is where a few questions come to my mind.... Like, did you actually do Refeed, get Maintenance guidelines, etc. Are you wanting to re-use your old Diary? Start afresh?

And, the biggie - "Does your body want to drop another 5Kgs?"

Anyway, plenty of time for all that. You already KNOW it, but "You've come (back) to the right place"

thanks for the welcome back

Koh; ummm, NO, I dont have a refeed plan, nor do I have a maintainance plan I cannot justify paying the $ again.... I know refeed is a very important part of Cohens, and Im just not sure what to do ??? I cant afford to pay the money again... but Im worried if I muck it up, I will start to gain weight again

Maybe I could call them, and see if there are any other options ?? Im not sure how it works, and its been over 2 years since I got my initial plan ......

Hi Karen,

Dunno - I'm in uncharted territory here, but, you are looking pretty good even so.

Have you "stabilised" at 5 Kg over, and for how long? Depending on your answer, is it a maintainable weight for you? Are you still following your old Plan just to "stay there"?

Hmm, so many questions, but welcome back anyway. Maybe those "with runs on the board" will be able to help with ideas,

Koh
