Sad to say, it's the same equation as losing weight, just with a few more calories in the daily allowance. You have to be just as vigilant. You have to change your brain to see success for NOT changing. You can do this if you can lose. So I look forward to reading about your success!12 -
Hi! My name is Kristen. And I struggle to maintain my weight. I have had great success losing/gaining, but I'm hoping this group helps me be more accountable. I weigh only 1x week on Sundays, so that's when I'll check in. My 2 goals in 2020 are to not let the scale go above 153 and weigh in EVERY Sunday for the WHOLE YEAR. This seems easy to most, but I get lazy and make excuses why I don't need to weigh in and then all of a sudden everything in my closet has shrunk. LOl
I figured I'd set this up in this thread, carried over from December so I'm ready to report on Sunday.

End of year check in:
Total Weight lost: 30 pounds
Time it took to lose: ~6 months
How long in maintenance: Since July 2018 -- but with some fluctuation outside of goal range.
Maintenance weight range: 142 - 148 (and not sure that's the right answer)
MONTHLY:
Average weight recorded from January: 148.4
Average weight recorded from February: 146.3
Average weight recorded from March: 143.2
Average weight recorded from April: 143.0
Average weight recorded from May: 144.1

Average weight recorded from September: 143.2
Average weight recorded from October: 142.3
Average weight recorded from November: 144.4
Average weight recorded from December: 145.0
I started the year near the top of my maintenance range, brought it back down where I aim for, bounce around my goal for a while, then started what seems to be an annual increase in the fourth quarter. I ended the year with a monthly average closer to my goal weight than I started. I am above that goal weight by about the same amount I am below my average weight for January.
ANNUAL:
Average weight recorded from 2017 (12 months): 163.8
Average weight recorded from 2018 (12 months): 150.7
Average weight recorded from 2019 (12 months): 144.8
The data suggest that this year was a better year than last year, and that last year was better than 2017. I'm sticking to it for 2020, and I will get back near the bottom of my range, probably in the first quarter. I hope you join me in 2020 and continue maintaining your healthy weight. If you are reading this and aren't quite yet to your maintenance goal, I hope you stick around and will get to that goal and start updating here in 2020.
Happy New Year!

Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Weighed in the first day of the year, because I will be away from my scale my usual Saturday AM weigh in day. Plus it’s the first day of the year😊
I survived the holidays logging and doing what I need to do, while still enjoying some food related treats, meals out prime rib and a fudge fest!
I am pleased with an average for 2019 at 156 and December’s average of 157. Looking back 2019 has been a solid first calendar year of maintenance. I am considering upping my range 5 pounds as I lowered it at the beginning of 2019 and have never averaged below 155 in a single month.
On to a solid year of maintenance in 2020 and wishing all you all the same.
Happy New Year

I had trouble in the autumn keeping my weight over 48 kg but I appear to be fairly consistent now at about 48.5 kg.
Personally, it's been a difficult year, one granddaughter diagnosed with coeliac disease, and my son with a brain tumour. And I had investigations which resulted in the recommendation to have a hysterectomy. Luckily it’s not cancer but I’m having the op in January. A "bumpy year".
Wishing everyone all the best in 2020!

Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week:
Even though I'm not yet in maintenance I thought this weekly check in would be good for accountability as it did for me when I decided to get an online nutrition coach in September with bi-weekly check ins (I've now since stopped it since I'm happy to continue on my own). I am quite pleased with my progress so far and would like to keep up with the momentum. In the last 5 years, I always manage to get to a low weight of 52 - 53 kg but then quickly go back up to 55 - 56 kg as I did not think of "maintaning the weight loss". From this year, my promise to myself is to not let my weight go any higher than it currently is which is 52 kg.4 -

Name: missperfectpitch
Height: 5'4"
Total weight lost: About 43 pounds
Time it took to lose: 1 year and 2 months
How long in maintenance: I hit my goal weight in the beginning of January 2018, but officially started maintenance in mid-March 2018 after figuring out my calories for a couple of months.
Maintenance weight range: 108-112.5
Average weight recorded from 2018 (12 months): 109.8
Average weight recorded for 2019: 111.2
Average weight recorded for Oct: 112.2

Jan 25:
Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Reflecting on the past calendar year, I managed to stay within my maintenance range overall, though it was 1.4 pounds higher than the previous calendar year. I started January 2019 off at 111 lbs, then dropped a little to just below 110 pounds in May. In June, I jumped up to an average of 111.2 for the month and increased to a high of 112.6 in September (this was likely due to a couple of different vacations of 1.5-2 weeks long where I was eating out a lot). From there, I decided to bump up my steps/activity level a bit, as well as try to put a bit more effort into my workouts, and dropped down to 111.3 in December. I managed to keep at the same average weight for December as I did for November, despite eating at a significant surplus for basically the entire month of December due to celebrations, holiday parties, and a mini vacation thrown in.
After some thought, I've decided to increase my maintenance range by a bit to 112.5 lbs on the high end (previously 111.5). I've had some pretty significant weight fluctuations during maintenance especially this past year, and a 3.5 lb range was a pretty narrow range. Practically speaking, this won't affect much, as I'm still planning to work to get back down to 109-110.5 lb, the low-to-middle-ish part of my range, where I look and feel the best. It'll just better reflect the reality that my weight fluctuates quite a bit between all of the eating out and desserts that I enjoy plus the TOM/hormonal fluctuations that occur basically half of each month.
This past week was basically yet another week of going all out with food. I celebrated New Year's with my boyfriend by doing drinks, a fancy Italian dinner, and a champagne toast on NYE, as well as a filling brunch and a fancy homemade surf & turf dinner on New Year's Day. I also bought 8 doughnuts yesterday from this amazing doughnut shop near me and proceeded to eat about half of them between yesterday and today. I'm actually surprised that my average weight for this week was only 111.7 (only up .2 lbs from last week's average)!6 -

Hi! My name is Kristen. And I struggle to maintain my weight. I have had great success losing/gaining, but I'm hoping this group helps me be more accountable.

It was a pretty successful holiday season, weight-wise. I suspect I'm still holding onto a pound or two of water weight.
It's interesting to see that my December average from this year was three pounds beneath last year. I've lowered my range by a couple of pounds to acknowledge the reality that I feel more comfortable, psychologically, at this lower weight. I'll reassess the range as the year goes forward, particularly if I'm able to get back into more strength training.
I hope everyone has a wonderful 2020!6 -

Successes/struggles : I ate out on Tuesday evening, which caused a spike up to 49.3 kg but that went off quickly, back to 48.6 over the weekend thanks to plenty of exercise. I’ll take that as a success.
Another spike this morning – had a carb fest yesterday, bread with lunch, mince pie in the afternoon, cheese and biscuits in the evening.
I’m struggling mentally now. I’m going in to hospital for surgery (Total abdominal hysterectomy) next week, and now that the holidays are over, I have nothing to distract me from thinking about it. I didn’t go to the gym over the weekend – it’s hard to get motivated when I know that it will be months before I can get back to the exercise routines. I also know that my eating patterns will be significantly altered for a few weeks. I have been trying to get my weight up to 49 kg prior to the surgery but doing it in a healthy way with lots of protein to aid recovery and fruit and veg to strengthen my immune system.
I’ll check in next Monday, the surgery is on Tuesday 14th.

Struggle: Not too surprised that I was up a bit after eating out much of last week, the breakfast I had on Friday was quite salty so I know most of the uptick in weight was water. This week I have no plans to eat out at all.7 -

Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: spent several weeks at the cottage and all my kids joined us. I increased my daily calorie intake 250 calories and estimated a lot of eating, just focusing on family time. Made it through the holidays basically stable and have gone back to my planned maintenance levels. Happy to be back to my normal routines!

I had lost a ton of weight about 10 years ago and maintained for about 4-6 years. I was about 250lbs and got down to 158ish-I lost weight very unhealthy and then changed my eating habits and kicked the smoking habit as well. Now my husband and I eat a mostly vegan diet just for health reasons and to stay in a healthier mindset. I had some personal issues at the end of 2018 and I gained about 50lbs-which felt like it was overnight! So I am back to my 249-250 range and I have a reasonable goal of losing about 70ish lbs in about 35 weeks. I am determined to stick to my goal and to look and feel better. I have used MFP for years but always left and came back. Please feel free to add me and we can continue our journeys together.

Jan 5 since i'm just now starting I guess I'll update 1/12 as of 1/11 lol

Jan 26
Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Success-I feel like I have a reasonable plan, to whereas I did have plans in the past but I didn't stick to them because I felt so restricted and became unhappy and hopeless. I have a long term plan and it makes me feel more comfortable and I know I can do this since I have done do before.
Struggle: Nothing too much just yet, no bad temptations except for when work buddies order out and I really want to but I know it won't help me reach my goal.
I wish nothing but the best for all of you in 2020 and I look forward to hearing about your stories!
