Eating good, mostly whole food and no processed foods have been helpful for me. When you cut out those foods (most of the time), you gain focus. That, with a 4 day week/40 minute cardiovascular workout has worked for me. Fasting....not so much, but I eat light popcorn after 6:00 pm if anything at all.
I feel energetic and light. So good! What works for you?

Eating food that I like within my calorie range, with moderate exercise. I eat everything - "processed/dirty/whatever" doesn't matter. I've maintained a 50 pound weight loss for 15+ years this way.6

I’m having good results just staying in my calorie range and eating a range of foods. I am more aware of how many calories are in my favorite foods so I can plan accordingly. I’m not a huge fan of cardio but I strength train 4 days a week and do a 15 mom cardio warm up each time. I’m in love with the fact that if I build more muscle my body will burn more calories naturally throughout the day.0

Eating regular, balanced and varied meals, monitoring weight by daily weigh-ins, fine tuning weight by adding or reducing treats. No foods off-limits takes away the food fear and desperation that made me resort to overeating. No forced exercise makes me want to move more. I feel strong, energetic, happy and relaxed. 47 years of age, normal weight; maintaining 50 pounds weightloss virtually effortlessly.0
