She makes some good points about being new to maintaining and the slip ups that can easily happen to any of us.

I do remember being so new and so scared!! I think that my fear kept me motivated to keep my new food boundaries in tact. Daily weighing and setting up boundaries on acceptable and unacceptable numbers kept me in line and around which I stuck it out.

I laughed a little when she talks about starches and sugars creeping back into our food. If/when you create a food plan that includes enough of these types of food when you are still in low carb weight loss mode, this doesn't become an issue. For me, it is still about tending to be an overeater in general, even on plan food.

I do see a direct correlation between my daily walking(5-6 hours daily) and keeping my weight stable. I'm working on building more muscle doing Pilates.
