exactly why I hedged it three times in the post itself, felt like I needed to prove I wasn't complaining before I could even describe it

comment on [Milestone] 18 months, at goal for a year of that, and the weirdest part was after the number stopped moving in c/progresspics · 154 points · 3 days ago
the "losing has a narrative, maintaining doesn't" line is exactly right and I've never seen it put that plainly. the scale gave you a story every week. maintenance gives you the same number over and over, which is the goal, but it doesn't feel like a story.
For over a year, "losing weight" was a structuring project. Tracked, planned, celebrated milestones, had a clear direction. Hit goal, and there's genuinely a weird flat…
