Thank you @frankwbrown I'm not surprised. It seems like just when I'd get into the routine, the weight loss would come to a stop. That's about the point I'd always quit.

@Nicoles0305 I just eat until I'm not hungry or up to my maintenance calories, whichever is less. It is hard to eat up to the higher calorie level at first.

@Nicoles0305 This is my second maintenance break and I've found them to be really helpful. The extra calories give me breathing room and take some of the pressure off. It's a good reset for my body, too. At some point, we'll both reach our goal weights and I see the maintenance breaks as a good way to practice in…

@coblujay Wednesday weigh-in PW: 196 CW: 195.2 After bouncing back and forth and coming to a stall, I decided to take a ten day maintenance break. After nine months, I was just a little tired and going over my calorie limit more often. I'm on day four and not so stressed about every detail. I changed my settings from…

@quiltingjaine I'm getting ahead of myself. :)

Beautiful @AnnPT77 I think that hibernating thing is wonderful sometimes. I've been finding myself at a bit of a plateau and with the weather as it is, I haven't been hiking. I'm still in the pool twice a week and working out at Orange Theory once a week. Without those extra exercise calories, I find myself going over my…

I'm there with so many of you...a stall, a plateau, moving less, maybe just tired...My next round is going to be a maintenance break. It was so helpful last time I did it. Otherwise, I'll continue to beat myself up and I just want to relax a little and celebrate everything I've done so far without going overboard. Then…

@gvdjzo Welcome! I just turned 63 and have lost 68 pounds since June. Another 36 to go. You can do this. It's amazing how much it changes as you drop down in size.

@jessicakrall8 Happy birthday, Jessica! @coblujay Wednesday weigh-in PW- 196.0 CW- 196.0 A bit disappointed, but this is the first week in months where I didn't lose even a little. That's a pretty good record. This was bound to come at some point. I do know that I've been eating all my exercise calories instead of half and…

Congratulations! I'm still about 36 pounds away from a 100 pound loss. Just think back to when you first decided to start and all those doubts. You've done incredible and had so many wins along the way.
