[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I weigh myself every day. If I go up a pound, I super extra watch what I eat the next several days until it goes back down. I eat a ton of veggies and really limit carbs. Meal planning helps. Allowing a treat a couple times a week so I don’t feel deprived. I find it fairly easy to skip dinner and breakfast the next day if I have a really full lunch. I’ve maintained my weight loss for about and a half this way.[/quote]

I've been weighing myself every day since I graduated from college (I'm currently 39).  I think this has played a big role in helping me maintain my weight during this time period, with the exception of when I had my two children.

I also exercise regularly (4-6 times per week), eat lots of fruits and vegis, lean protein, and I try to limit my carbs.  I don't cut out carbs completely, I just try to eat them in moderation.  Its honestly a day to day commitment.  I think weighing myself daily has been very helpful because that jump in the scale when I overeat is the kick in the pants I need to motivate me to cut back the next day or two.  If I didn't weigh myself daily, that one bad eating day can quickly stretch on to a bad eating week or month, and that is when real weight gain starts to set in.  [/quote]
