Hi - 56 year old Noom refugee. I am at 6’3” 183 lbs, just about where I want to be. I toy with the idea of losing another 5-10 lbs, but I am really in maintenance mode.

    Sure, this is the right place.

    There's a whole maintenance part of the Community here:

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories/goal-maintaining-weight

    There are a lot of maintainers, some quite long term, still participating in the Community forum. The maintenance group itself isn't super active, though there's a monthly accountability/tracking thread to participate in if you like.

    The maintenance group gets little spurts of other activity when new people enter maintenance and answer questions, but more often the still-participating maintainers hang out in other parts of the Community, either to help newer folks figure things out, or to participate in . . . oh, I dunno . . . exercise challenges, recipe chat, etc.

    I'm in year 7+ of maintaining a healthy weight, still hanging around as per above. Weight loss and long-ish term maintenance has been such a huge quality of life improvement for me that I hang around partly to try to help others get steady on some personalized path to success, if I can. I also participate in some ongoing food, exercise, and age group (60+) threads or groups as part of my self-accountability routine.

    Welcome to MFP and the Community! I'm betting you have some great insights that would help others, so don't hesitate to dive in and participate in threads.
