Successes/struggles:
I’m back to my goal weight of around 49 kg, now is the point at which I have to stop gaining weight and keep steady. I was away for a couple of nights last week and will be away again next week (from the 17th) so this week has to be a really careful one. Unfortunately, the weather isn’t helping – it’s cold and wet – very discouraging. Cycling in the rain is not fun after 5 minutes.5 -

2 days of late night absolute sweet binges. Took me the rest of the week to recover but weight is starting to normalize. Had to call off the second part of my long run for heat and being ill supplied. We’ll adjust and continue making progress. Got to keep coming back to check in when things go good and when they go not great. I’m still in range and if I just be sensible for a week I’ll be fine.2 -

Success/Struggle: I have a new way for me on maintenance. We'll see how it works. I lowered my calorie goal last fall when I started to gain due to less outdoor activities, especially yardwork. Now that I am back to the yard and could use a few more calories I decided that instead of raising my calorie goal, I would allow myself a meal outside of plan now and then. For example, on Cinco de Mayo, we had Mexican takeout. I didn't log it (it would have been hard to figure it out). Yesterday we had our first family get together since Thanksgiving of 2019. I ate reasonably including a small piece of cake. I worry that the little extras will grow to big extras but we'll see and I can always change the plan. That's the trick with maintenance. Keep an eye on the scale and adjust as needed.

Successes: My weigh-in is exactly the same as last week, though it's been up and down over the week. i continue in my new maintenance range of 75.0 +/- 1kg. Still logging what I am eating, but that includes a glass or two of wine and a bit of chocolate. It's curious as I don't feel that I am doing anything very different food-wise from January, but then my weight was creeping back up. As I write that I realise the difference is my exercise. I am exercising for arounf an hour most days, and that makes all the difference.
Struggles: None really.
Ten days away from being a year since I came back to mfp. I'm very grateful for the support.
Here's my weight tracking from May 2020 - April 2021, just for interest:
You can really see when I move into maintenance and the lines for each month start to overlap!3 -

Age: 54
Height: 176 cm
Heaviest weight: 98.9 kg
Total Weight lost: 35 kg
Time it took to lose: 12 months
How long in maintenance: Since April 2016 - but gained 10 kg March-May 2020 after massive trauma combined with COVID-19.
Maintenance weight range: 65-75 kg (not sure what’s the right answer - been up and down in there numerous times in my life, apart from going way over 2010-2015).
I’d like to lose a bit to get back to 70 kg, but I’m still happy at around 75 kg.
I’m experimenting with seeing how my satiety levels are in relation to the types of foods I eat. Trying to eat more whole foods, which I’ve been getting pretty good at, and less sugar, and it’s going quite well.

Successes/struggles of the week: My weight this week was still on the high side, though slightly less so than last week. I'm not expecting it to go down quite yet though, as I ordered a bunch of Chinese food a couple days ago and am still working my way through the leftovers, so I'm still retaining water weight.3 -

May 24 - 30 ...............
May 31 - Jun 6 ............
Success of the week: Second week in a row getting a little closer to maintenance range.
Struggle of the week: I'm growing weary of the extra mass that came with COVID that is a real pain to get back rid of.
Editing to add: I have been maintaining in a fairly narrow range since the beginning of the year. I still bounce around some, but it seems maintaining at this weight is a lot easier than at the weight I maintained for a few years before that. So I'm really considering moving my goal to closer to where I am now. I don't think it's cheating. My BMI is still in the healthy range even if it's on the high end of healthy (six more pounds would put me back as overweight). When I calculate my "Smart BMI," which takes age and gender into account, it's smack in the middle of the healthy range. The estimate of my body fat percentage is also in the upper end of healthy for someone my age, but still healthy. So this is also a struggle I've been facing since last October. In fact, I've been wondering what my target should be ALL ALONG. I lowered my target as I was hitting the first one I set. I was pleased with how I felt and looked at the goal I eventually settled on, but it was a lot more work to maintain it. Well... see you next week and I'll still be pondering this and so many other crazy things in this Universe.2 -

I really sympathise with this. Last time I lost weight I was aiming for 75kg, then that felt too high so I aimed for 72kg and then for 70kg to see if I could. However, that's too low for me for maintenance. This time around I am currently aiming to maintain at around 75kg, though long term I'd prefer that to be between 74kg and 75g. 74 kg is bmi 23 for me, and at my age 57 that feels about right. Where do you calculate your smart bmi?1 -

I'm away for a few days this week - and the Covid restrictions have been relaxed a bit so we might even be able to go into a cafe/bar/restaurant this week!

Struggle: Sometimes I feel I am somewhat obsessive about my weight. It bothers me when I go even an 1/2 above my goal but then I remember that I was mostly overweight since 5th grade. It has been 10 years at maintenance and it has been wonderful. So what if I fret a little? I think I'm worth it!5 -

Successes/struggles of the week: My weight has still been high this past week, so I decided to bump up my daily steps goal a bit to help with getting my weight back down again. On the workout side, I've been progressing lately with my barbell workouts, which is helping me to stay motivated to continue with my workouts. With the weather being nice, I'd like to get in some more outdoor walks, but unfortunately all of the cicadas emerging make it a bit unpleasant to be outdoors for too long.2 -
Name: Orphia
Age: 54
Height: 176 cm
Heaviest weight: 98.9 kg
Total Weight lost: 35 kg
Time it took to lose: 12 months
How long in maintenance: Since April 2016 - but gained 10 kg March-May 2020 after massive trauma combined with COVID-19.
Maintenance weight range: 65-75 kg (not sure what’s the right answer - been up and down in there numerous times in my life, apart from going way over 2010-2015).
I’d like to lose a bit to get back to 70 kg, but I’m still happy at around 75 kg.
I’m experimenting with seeing how my satiety levels are in relation to the types of foods I eat. Trying to eat more whole foods, which I’ve been getting pretty good at, and less sugar, and it’s going quite well.
Weekly averages checking day for me is Sunday.
