I hope that this gives people some hope that not only can they achieve their loss with CICO, but that they can maintain it. I lost about 13kg - 71.4kg down to about 58kg.
The first photo is when I was a bridesmaid - the second is at my wedding this year.
I am still logging every day to maintain, and I think I will keep logging for the foreseeable future. I found that the thing that helped me the most was that due travel for work I was required to shop for two weeks worth of groceries at a time. This made meal planning mandatory in order to avoid waste or running out, and this has been very helpful. The other thing which makes all the difference is a set of kitchen scales, especially with things like breakfast cereal, yoghurt etc. Meal planning makes a lot of sense at present for all sorts of reasons - social distancing means we should be avoiding too many trips to the shops, plus in the current economy for most people creating a budget and using meal planning to stick to it makes a lot of sense. In terms of exercise, it isn't needed to lose weight, but I quite like to feel more fit and have a few extra calories to splurge on a post dinner snack. So I run about 5km three times a week - just hit 1000km. When I am near the pool I do aquarobics and boot camp as well. I use a garmin to track my output and their running coach program is good for beginner runners like me.
If you are starting out, or just reached your target and heading into maintenance, take heart that it is definitely possible to get there and to maintain.
