Hi Lose it Friends,
This chart shows my weight ups and downs since Nov of 2018 until now, July of 2025
As you can see I yo-yo quite a bit with my weight and this doesn't even show all of it.
In high school I was about 165lb, then in my late teens I ballooned up to 260 lb. Over about 10 years I lost down to 147 lb by my late 20's, early 30's.
Then I ballooned up again to 286 in 2016, then down again to 190 with a severe diet. Then up again to 255, then slowly down to 210 lb with a lot of hiking. Then up again to 280.
I have a point here, although it might not seems like it.
I am now 220 lb, which might seem heavy to some people but it's actually pretty good for me. I want to lose a little more weight and then MAINTAIN!!!
I think if I really want to keep the weight off permanently I will have to continue tracking on myfitnesspal and also using the lose it subreddit. Lose it has been very helpful for me, especially Mountain Lioness's daily posts for usa accountability.
My question is, does anybody who has successfully maintained a big weight loss have any tips for how to maintain it? I want to lose a little more but I'm getting close to a weight I would want to maintain.
I have a bad habit of gaining and losing and this time I really want to find a set point and stay there. For one thing, it's really really annoying to have clothes in a bunch of different sizes and have nothing fit. Clothes are expensive!
Thank you if you read all of this, and please reply with tips on maintenance, those who have successfully maintained your weight loss for about 2 years or more.
Also, it is worth mentioning that I also have bipolar disorder and my high weights can sometimes coincide with my bipolar manias.
