Would like to share, mostly you can do it too

Yup I started to gain a tad, so went back to my usual eating habits... as in nothing major, just four pounds

Folks, I have maintained a fifty pound loss for now five years... would love to lose another twenty, but doc and I agree that this is probably set point...

You can do it.

Congrats on keeping it off. I can lose weight, keeping it off is the problem.

I used to be able to lose it easily, then I got older. Then I got older still!

I'm now working on getting it off again, and it's slow going. It's good to know once I get there that it is possible to stay there.
