Friends in maintenance or losing small amounts?

Hey. I'm Charlie/26yo/England. I'm in maintenance these days, and came back to mfp after years because I'd gained about 10lbs that I wanted rid of. Most people I had on my friends list before are gone now, and it'd be nice to have some who are in the same situation as me.
I don't usually track when I'm maintaining, apart from every so often to check my intuition is still good, or when I've gained a few lbs, as I like to get rid of them before they become a problem. So I doubt I'll be here long-term, which is another reason to be friends with people with smaller goals. Yeah, that about sums it up. Add me. Message me.

Hey,
You've posted in the 'Getting Started' forum so it's pretty unlikely that you'll find too many people in maintenance posting/reading here.
There is however a whole forum dedicated to people in maintenance so you might want to try there to find a few kindred spirits.2 -
Me! Maintaining since October, and at the moment trying to get to the lower end of my maintenance range (5 pounds) instead of the upper end.0

I'm in maintenance - 6th year but still log in here to browse the forums and post on the newsfeed. I'll send you a FR.

I’m in maintenance for now since I’m in the process of recomping; it’s been 8 months now and it’s working. The numbers on the scale haven’t budged but I’m certainly losing inches everywhere it seems.
