[quote=Anonymous]I’m in the registry. They email me a survey once a year. It’s been 10 years since my 50lb weight loss. I put 20 back on at one point and haven’t been able to shake it, so I’ve maintained a 30lb loss. There is a book based on the findings of what people need to do to successfully maintain a loss - it’s got maintenance in the title. It’s a little depressing because of the energy we need to devote to managing weight for a lifetime after that kind of loss. Your body is always trying to get back to its original weight. What I remember from the book - and I do - is realize I’ll be managing this as a chronic disease the rest of my life, and that trying different diets can help me lose again when I regain a few pounds. So I’ve tried them all! But I have to be consciously doing something to manage my weight or I’ll regain.[/quote]
