Well, I am not new to the weight loss game. I am hoping this will be the last time (and then maintain). A few years ago, the over 5(0) happened. Metabolism was never high, I had even been through some heavy duty testing in NYC at Mt. Sinai as part of a program with a dr. that worked on WW Points system. Outcome at age 34 was, I can eat 1200 calories to maintain 167 lbs. Which means I probably need to eat 1,000 to maintain 167 today. It's no wonder I got to over 300 lb after menopause, and eating what I felt like. Just fyi, don't believe the hype....cravings for sweets or carbs---NEVER goes away for me. Never was a real sweets person, but something happened a few years ago, I think I became a "sugar junkie". For now I am making small goals. And yes, I have gone Keto for periods, low carb, now just trying to stay with smaller portions. I still believe #s matter, calories more than anything. Staying within the Zone (roughly 30/30/40)

First goal met 2/2015 below 300.
Working on temporary goal of 200, and I mean maintaining since I have been lower and seem to be staying around 200-204 for months.

Currently trying to achieve 195 (would really want it to be 155--baby steps)
Now the real goal would be 165 but I do it baby steps. At 140 my head looked like a bobble head. I think for many 155-165 would seem to high at my height, but I don't think I'd mind those numbers.
