Losing Weight: When is it Time to Stop?
If you have been actively losing weight - at what time do you decide that it is time to stop losing - and time to start maintaining weight? What exactly are the factors that make you decide - this is enough?
- You reach a "goal weight" - How did you come by this number? What is an ideal body weight and who decides what is normal?
- You decided that you are happy with your appearance.
- You are fitting in to clothes of a certain size.
- You reach a goal body fat percentage.
- Others are beginning to say you are looking thin (or too thin?).
- You feel that your diet is (or has been) too restrictive and you want to stop feeling like you are focusing on food.
- Certain health markers are indicating that you are a lot healthier.
These are just a few reasons.
When do you say "enough is enough"?
