[quote=Anonymous]Different things work for different people.  Here is what has worked for me.

1) Making new sustainable habits over time (meal planning, good sleep, building exercise/movement into your life)
2) Giving up all or nothing thinking (if I blow the plan I will just give up and start again later)
3) working on my mindset (good podcasts are “Weight Loss for Busy Physicians” and “Half-Size Me”).  
4) having a plan and tracking your food in some manner to maintain awareness.  There are various plans that work, I use WW but I use my points on good fats, stay away from breads, mostly do IF 16:8.  It all works together for me and I like the accountability of weighing in weekly with WW.

I am 55, 5’4”, and have lost 28 pounds since last April, down to 144 lbs.  The most important thing has been the mindset work.  IMHO, the busy physicians podcast is the best for getting a handle on your mind but the half size me one is also great for its focus on losing weight with maintenance in mind.  Also, I like to have something to listen to on the metro and listening keeps me focused.

I lost all the same weight counting calories 8 year ago, but I gained it all back over a couple of years.

I am not worried at all about gaining it back now, but time will tell.

Good luck to you.
