Hello, I've lost over 30lbs with the MyFitnessPal app and am now approaching my goal. I feel a lot lighter, slimmer and have been so pleased about going through my wardrobe and getting rid of clothes which are far too big for me. My question is now that I'm approaching my goal, can the app help me to maintain my healthy goal weight? Does the app automatically know that I've now reaching my goal and adapt accordingly? Thanks.

Hi there, I have heard that there are many types of helpful apps which are used to maintain weight. I have also started doing exercise and proteins to maintain weight. Recently my friend told me about livre régime and suggested me to follow this guide for maintaining weight.5

The main way MFP keeps me from regaining the weight I lost is that it keeps me mindful of what I'm eating. I think twice about whether I really want to eat dessert or a snack or an extra beer. It is really easy to eat just a little bit extra here and a little bit there until you find the pounds creeping back. When I track, I can't pretend that a donut here and a bowl of ice cream there don't matter. Yes, I may still eat them, but not every day and only with some trade-offs. And if I gain weight, I can look back and see that I went over my calories on x days, and that's why.1

The app only knows what you tell it. Log your weight in the app regularly and switch your goal to maintain. Do as it says unless you are losing or gaining, and then adjust accordingly1
