Maintenance at a higher weight

I am 5 ft. 8.5 inches and female, and 4 years ago, I weighed 147-150 lbs. and I was happy with that. Now, I weigh a steady 158- 161 lbs. and I'm not real happy with that but I'm learning to live with it.
I used to eat up to half my caloric quota in sugar in the form of bakery cookies. One thing I've done successfully recently is cut all cookies completely out of my life. That was my one weakness. I'm waiting to see if this change will make a difference in my weight or health.

that sounds like good weight since you are tall. I weigh 160 and am only 5'4, I went down to 156 and seen it only once. I guess it is good as long as we dont gain.0
