Maintenance always is very challenging.

Maintenance is far harder than losing weight!

You are killing it! As my nutritionist says, it's not all about the scale!

Diana, Storm girl, Liv and Morticia thanks for the encouragement! My last thing i need to do is be consistent lifting weights. I'm only walking right now. Ahhh the progress is slow and steady. The last few weeks have been a wake up call mentally. It's ez to fall off the train and get a little lazy when we're close to goals. Oh my let's keep going!!!!!

Jen i am about 6 weeks into an oatmeal experiment (for ldl numbers on new labs in a couple months) and have been gaining weight with same calories roughly. Only change, replacing protein grams with carb grams. I can only conclude that my body doesnt process carbs very well and i also know they hold more water weight than protein but it has been a fight for 6 weeks. I got all the way up to 139.8 from a low of 132.8 and am pretty frustrated. I’ve realized on the days i restrict myself by about 300 calories or so the scale moves down o so slightly . Looks like you are replacing fat with muscle else the inches would not be reducing which is awesome. Something I never had to worry about in my 40’s but it is a whole new metabolic world for me. Maybe you have something like that going on.

YOH, that is a mystery to me, carbs don't affect me that way; perhaps because I've been eating them forever (?).

Yearofhealth23 you're gaining weight because you are now producing way more insulin to process those extra carbs. Insulin is the fat storage hormone. Search Dr Jason Fung and Obesity Code 😉

Thanks Jen will do that today. No1Greater its pretty frustrating. Im so curious to see if it makes a difference on my LDL numbers. Of course if it does then i will just have to double my walks to 8 miles a day to offset the gain as lower LDL is preferable to statins and so on.
