Dear Friend Middy,

I know im getting annoying by asking the same type questions, and i am sorry if i am doing so, because i do not mean to...

but how long does it take for you to decide if you have kept weight off?

yes, i know im being annoying asking this stuff, but i am not trying to annoy you...sorry

Loving as always,
Shock

Dearest Shock,

Umm, well when I tried losing weight I tried to stay on a consistent path, maybe it took a good month for it to settle in for me. It's different for everybody though, so how long it might take you is much different than me maybe.

Hope this sorta helps.

Middy

it does help

well, basically, after losing 6-7 pounds from being sick which was all water weight, i tried very hard to keep it off, and so far have stayed at the same weight for two weeks, and have gotten slender, which makes me think i lost that weight in fat, so i lost something, even though i didnt lose weight, would this be considered keeping it off?

Well considering you didn't gain any weight, then yes! 

so now, im basically right next to my goal, knocking on the door, im so close...

by the way, were you able to lost weight? you said you tried to and stuff

I did, but I have a terrible problem with sticking with something.

So I gained most of it back 

I gotta learn to follow things more through.

Yeah like around 10-15 lbs or something, I'm happy though with that  

you kept off a lot!  how can you say thats not good!

im just fearing that time when i decide to call it quits on the diet thing, even though i keep thinking i will never stop it, which scares me

You'll probably be able to keep most of it off though, so even if you wanted to take a break from it you probably could

Even if you do, you'll still be close to your goal, so I wouldn't get too worried

but wouldnt i gain it all back?
my other goal is to get in better shape with it off for next year, first year of HS (im too young )  where soccer gets incredibly hard, ive seen practices, the team this year was ranked 5th in the state,, kids throw up at practice its so hard

Well you'll also gain some back if your trying to build muscle. So watch out for that.

And you wouldn't gain all of it back I don't believe

Ok thnaks mid

well, going into it, i had muscle mass and stuff, not a lot of fat, so thats why i weigh more than say the really big/fat kids in are grade sometimes, i lost a lot of the fat, so i have muscle, im more concerned about getting cardio up
