Scale up higher than I’d like, but mostly from too many calories earlier in August. Working to turn scale around. Smoke filled skies are not helping my steps.

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.
Current moving average: 78.0 kg
Today’s weigh-in: 78.2 kg
Average weight recorded from 2015 (12 months): 85 kg
Average weight recorded from 2016 (12 months): 64 kg
Average weight recorded from 2017 (12 months): 64 kg
Average weight recorded from 2018 (12 months): 65 kg
Average weight recorded from 2019 (12 months): 65 kg
Average weight recorded from 2020 (12 months): 74 kg
Traumatic life events March – May 2020
Average weight recorded from January 2021: 75.7 kg
Average weight recorded from February 2021: 75.8 kg
Average weight recorded from March 2021: 75.7 kg

Average weight recorded from May 2021: 77.4 kg
Average weight recorded from June 2021: 77.5 kg
Average weight recorded from July 2021: 77.6 kg
Average weight recorded from August 2021: 78.0 kg
Average weight Week ending ...

15 Aug ……….. 77.9 kg
22 Aug ……….. 78.1 kg
29 Aug ……….. 77.9 kg

Maintaining around 78 kg.
Would prefer a lower maintenance weight but can't face the mania of losing yet.

Success of the week: I continue to drift back down towards my goal range. Two pounds in August. One and a half of those are from the last two weeks. I took the week off work; already had approved leave. Used half of it even though I cancelled my river trip permit.
Struggle of the week: Bummed about cancelling the river trip. At least I got out to paddle a little bit locally; more tomorrow.
I still might revise my maintenance range up a bit. My current mass still has me at a healthy BMI. Like @Orphia, I feel like my range should be a bit lower. It is coming back down but so slowly. Winter is coming. I don't think that will make things any easier.2 -

Successes/struggles of the week: I'm still slowly moving back down again - I hit the low 112's again a couple of days ago. Of course, weekend/eating out meant that my weight jumped back up again. I wasn't able to work out as much as I would have liked this past week, but hope to be able to do so this week.0 -

The holidays I took over the summer have left their mark – my trend weight has gone from 49.5 kg at the end of June to nearly 51 kg now! Last week I was with my daughter and kids and we had fish and chips, pasties (we were in Cornwall) and cake – and beer!
I have three weeks at home now before I go away again, so time to buckle down.

I also didn't get a chance to do my weekly 20-minute stairs workout this past week due to being busy. Hopefully this coming week will be less crazy so I'll be able to do more.4 -

Reflection: Up to 78kg last week, though I might be on my way down now. I put this down to the change of diet and exercise while I was away, but I am also eating too much chocolate adn drinking too much wine. I'll aim to stay here (preferably around 77:5 kg) for the next few weeks adn then I'll be on my own for a bit because of work and can move back to losing for a few weeks and get to the lower end of my range.

Hi Good morning.
I lost 30 lbs. back 20 years ago on SP.
I've been maintaining since then back in 2000. It probably took almost one year! 2019-2000.
I try to stay between 138-142 lbs.
Right now I have been weighing 141.5 lbs.
My weight history is on SP which is gone.
I like to get it down to 139 lbs.
I am retired but watch a 1 almost 13 month year old grandson 2 days a week.
I am 5'5".
Sept 16 I weighed `141.5 lbs.
I will start posting now that I found you guys. Thank you.

Reflections: it’s certainly not been easy to lose just a couple of pounds, but I’m - in general - more in control of my eating/tracking again! A week of cooler weather saw a drop. Hot weather next week, but eventually Fall will be here!
More fatigued than usual- my doc took sept off, but I’ll see him first week Oct. I’m making a listSept 1, 2021🌸🌼🌺
This is by far the best I have ever done with maintenance in my entire life!!!!

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.

I started using Noom on Monday and it must have given me some motivation and determination to stick to a higher calorie deficit.

Successes/struggles of the week: My average weight for the week is finally back within my range again, with two weigh-ins in the mid-111's! I haven't done anything differently, so it might be that it dropped with the onset of cooler weather recently.3 -

Name: Charlotte
Age: 57
Height: 5'11" (180cm)
Maintenance range: narrow 75kg (+/- 1kg); wide 75kg (+/- 2.5kg)
Weight lost: 86kg to 80 kg (January-August 2012); 85 kg to 69 kg (October 2014 - March 2016); 88kg to present weight (May 2020 - now)
maintained (i.e. was below 77.5 kg, and mostly below 75 kg) from February 2015-July 2017; was then put on a medication and gained 2 kg in a month; went on sabbatical (away from scales; lots of conference meals); hit (peri-)menopause and lost track of things except to note that I was steadily gaining and back to 85/86 kg.
Lost to 81 kg at Easter 2020 (top of normal bmi for me), but then gained back to 88 kg in April/May (Easter egg binge; lock down closed the pool...).
Average weight October 2014 - September 2015: 75.72 kg
Average weight October 2015 - September 2016: 72.33 kg
Average weight October 2016 - September 2017: 76.82 kg - monthly average mostly within maintenance range (74.82 - 77.86 kg) for the first 10 months, then >79 kg in August and September
Average weight October 2017 - March 2018: 80.90 kg
April 2018-April 2020: no data
Average weight 22 May - 31 December 2020: 80.83 kg

Weight / seven day rolling average:
7 September: 77.0 kg (168 lb) / rolling 7-day average 76.79 kg
14 September: 77.7 kg (171 lb) / rolling 7-day average 77.36 kg
21 September: 77.7kg (172 lb) / rolling 7-day average 77.91 kg
28 September:
Average weight recorded for September 2021 currently: 77.35 kg
Reflection: My weight seems to be all over the place at present, but the trend is definitely up, and hovering above my wider maintenance range. As well as my diet not being great, my sleep has been a bit interrupted and although I am working out most days, I haven't been walking. It's also a stressful time of year at work with the beginning of the academic year. I'm still comfortably within normal bmi so have decided not to beat myself up about this, but to get through the next few weeks and see where I am. I am really noticing and enjoying the muscles I've devloped over the last few months and my abs are quite defined, so this is not simply a slide.
