    I appreciate the new thread! I hope you're better soon, @Faebert - I can only imagine how frustrating it must be, and hope that you'll be back in the swing of things soon!

    Name: Ben
    Age: 51
    Height: 6'
    Total weight lost: ~55 lbs
    Time it took to lose: 9 months
    How long in maintenance: Since ~ December 2018
    Maintenance weight range: 166-171...ish

    Average weight recorded for December:165.8
    Average weight recorded for January: 167.3
    Average weight recorded for February: 167.2
    Average weight recorded for March: 166.5
    Average weight recorded for April: 162.9
    Average weight recorded for May: 161.5

    Week of...
    June 2nd: 161.1

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: It's been another gorgeous week outside and I've tried to take full advantage after a wet and cold spring, averaging way more steps than usual. Still drifting down a little, but with a 2-week vacation coming up at the beginning of July that will involve being more sedentary (driving) than usual, as well as opportunities to enjoy a few different regional cuisines, I'm not going to make any major corrections.

    Have a great week, everyone!

    Thanks to @pkweier for starting the new thread.

    Name: Lesley
    Age: 68
    Height: 155 cm (5’ 1”)
    Total weight lost: 22.5 kg (approx. 50 lb)
    Time it took to lose: 9 months
    How long in maintenance: 2 months
    Maintenance weight range: 49 – 51 kg (108 – 112 lbs)
    Average weight recorded from 2018: max 72.5 kg in July, 56 kg in Dec

    Average weight recorded from January: 54.7 kg
    Average weight recorded from February: 53.3 kg
    Average weight recorded from March: 51.7 kg
    Average weight recorded from April: 50.2 kg (110.7 lb)
    Average weight recorded from May: 49.9 kg (110 lb)

    Week of...
    June 3: 48.6 kg (107 lb)
    June 10:
    June 17:
    June 24:

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: A fairly quiet week, with a day out on Friday which ended with a meal out in a pub. I had a really nice salad, very unusual in a pub, they are often very poor with too much oily dressing and cheap and nasty coleslaw.
    My weight has continued to drift down over the last couple of months since I hit my “goal weight” of 50 kg. But I feel good and my BMI is still over 20 so I’m happy with it. I may increase my protein intake to protect muscle strength.

    Success/ struggles of the week/month: i wish i had a better control of my cravings for sweets and peanut butter. Kids visiting somehow ends ip being free gor all to me, although this time i didn't even add any extra treats to our stash, almost none, lol. Anyway, going to try to limit snacks a bit to come back down to my preferred weight. I saw 142-143 for a few days and it went up shortly, can't seem to make it stay there. Wishing everyone a good week, and hopefully we will continue this thread. It helps me too.

    Have a good week x

    Total Weight lost: ~80 lbs
    Time it took to lose: 2 years 3 months

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: My scale and trend weight are both up a little again this week. I was hoping they would start coming back down after the holiday. I do think that it is mostly just some fluctuations since my scale weight was down some during the week and then back up again on the weekend. I am struggling a bit with feeling negative about my weight even though I know that I am not going to suddenly gain back all the weight I lost. But I do worry about my weight creeping up. I know that 117 or 118 is still in range and not a bad weight for me. I just prefer to be 115 or 116. I try not to get too focused on the number, but it is sometimes hard not to. I do like having this thread. It helps to write it down because looking at it I can see that I am still firmly in range my range.
