From what I have read from other threads and forums the best way to maintain weight and not lose more is to up the carb element of your diet. However I am no expert on this so would suggest you ask your team. You have done fab and I am sure you do not look old or anorexic!!! It must just be very different seeing yourself this much slimmer.

From your photos I think you look fab xx

I'm sure you will stop soon hun, i understand what you mean about looking old (not that i think you do), although I'm happy to continue loosing for a couple more stone the weightloss keeps changing my face........my body doesn't hasn't noticed that i have a stone or 2 on my tummy it can have a go at xxx

I was told that if our faces do look a little drawn at first, they will soften out and become a little plumpler when our weight stabilises as we will then start to store glycogen again. hope this helps xx

Well I think you look good in the photos on your page - but I know what you mean. I have skinny friends who actually have fab bodies . . but they have far more liney drawn faces than me and they always ask how I can be over 50 and have no lines! (who needs collagen when the fat fills em out !!) I always had a fat gran and a thin gran . . and the fat one always looked younger. Unfortunately it is probably something that we will all find as we get thinner, however on the plus side we are healthier and do not have three chins. Your body I am sure will find a happy level and you will even out. In the meantime the odd packet of hula hoops may help!!!
