I've been in weight loss mode for a while now. About 7 months or so. When I started this venture I was 250 pounds and am now 211. My goal is 180 pounds. For reference, I'm about 6 ft and have a medium to large frame. I'm combining strength training (every other day) with cardio (running 10-20 miles a week depending on how my body is doing and what the weather is like). I'm also eating healthy foods and no longer drink drinks with much calories if they have calories at all. But by, despite all the details, I've lost a lot of weight and have developed a new lifestyle that works for me.
Now that I'm more than half-way to my goal I'm curious about what I should do once I get there. I'm in weight loss mode kinda but really I don't see me not running, lifting weights, or eating the way I'm eating now after I get to 180. So I guess if I keep losing weight that means that my body hasn't reached its ideal weight yet. I guess? Right? I mean should I do something different when I get to 180? I'm sorry if this sounds dumb but I've never lost this much weight before and haven't really planned ahead very well. The goal just seemed so far away. But now I'm coming up on it and I don't know what I'm supposed to do once I get there.
