    Bob, I agree. The five pound range I desire to bounce around in right now is 150-155. I have been above 155 for the past two weeks and I want to get back down to near 150.

    I'm sorry your new plan didn't seem to work out, but basic OMAD always works so well for you, so I know you will get back down! After last week, we probably weigh around the same now, so we can be weight loss sisters once again. <3

    I think when you drive to your lower range, you can do what you want tell you hit your upper range. Just make sure you get busy when you hit the upper range. I don't think we can balance weight perfectly. We will either be losing or gaining even if it is very slowly. That is why I think we need a high point to get going again because we are either losing or we are gaining back towards our high point, we will not sit still perfectly balanced. I believe that is why Joe said to pick a weight range to live in. My weight range is just 5-lbs but it is still a range.

    It definitely works. Yesterday I was 159.3 and today I am 156.4. I am going to continue the basic OMAD course through January.

    Happy New Year! I'm right with you on the basic OMAD to get the rest of this weight off... It works - just hard to get back into after doing other stuff (e.g. me doing 2MAD for the past 2 weeks... Yikes).

    Yesterday was a bit of a splurge and I came in at 156.8 this morning. I am back on track today so I'll be right behind you soon I hope.

    I have decided to ditch the goal range for now. I am just now aiming to stay below 160 pounds. However low I can get is gravy, but as long as I stay below 160 pounds I am satisfied.

    Nice! You look great, so that sounds like a good plan. Will you be making a new plan?

    You do look great, I agree. Trying to get to a certain weight has always been my downfall in the past I think. I was always trying to get under 150 when I looked perfectly fine in the 155 range. I'd start extreme dieting because my body never liked going below around 155 and then everything would fall apart and I'd gain it all back. I think staying below 160 is an excellent plan...

    Nothing wrong with staying at a descent weight. I stayed mostly constant last year and then decided to lose some at the end of the year. I can maintain fairly easily but losing is work for me and takes some mental energy so I sometimes need to recharge to lose again.
