I wasn't going to do a big wibble but looking at those graphs I've just realised something. I'm fairly happy with my weight and the shape I am these days: I do want to lose the last half a stone, but I know I'm (just) a healthy weight now and I'm getting into nice clothes and not looking too bulgy in them and things like that. You can see from how nearly flat the last 4 months have been that this is definitely making me complacent. No way am I trying so hard as I used to be: and I keep having a good week, then cheating a bit the next week, then having another good one to make up. This'll be perfect once I actually *reach* my target, because at that point I'll *want* to stay more or less the same. However at the moment I've just realised that I'm beginning to look a lot like some of the other women in the class who've been within about this close to their target for *a year* now and keep faffing about up and down a bit. I *don't* want to turn into one of them, and that means I do have to take it seriously for a while, and just get this last half stone over with dammit. And then it'll stop costing me money at least, and I can relax about it and not feel cross at myself over it.
