I am at 4 months of losing weight. About 16 years ago I lost over 350 lbs and kept it off for about 10 years. 562.3 -> 207. After about 10 years I lost focus and put back on 200 of those hard lost pounds. Anyway, I thought I would post my daily weight chart - I love numbers, charts and statistics. I wish everyone the very best in your weight loss or weight maintenance journey. It takes focus no matter how long you have been at goal.

If I can ever help anyone along the way, please let me know.

    What a journey you've had! I wish you the best of luck as you kill your goal. My good friend is working his way down from 550 lbs and it has been a struggle. But you've done it before and you'll do it again!

    I food log to keep to my calorie goal. I am 6'3" tall, male, 60 and a desk job - so my current calories to maintain my current weight comes to 3015 calories per day. I target 2000 per day which puts me on target to have a 2 lbs weight loss. I am currently just doing walking for exercise because I want to get more weight off my knees before I try to get back to the gym. The more weight I lose, the less I can eat to get to 2 lbs per week which is my target. I will have to burn more calories with activity if I want to be able to stay at 2000 and still lose 2 lbs. I think it will let me ramp up slowly so I am hoping to keep moving. I wish you all the best and if I can ever be of any help - just let me know.
