Something is different this time. I really feel it differently than ever before. So, I think I would be able to maintain within 5 pounds or so.

In the past, I wasn't willing/ready to make the changes I needed to make to get this weight off. My motivation is now more for health than it is for how I look, and since I'm 50, keeping healthy is so important to me.

And, like Pattience, my way of eating is totally sustainable.

ummmmm

I like to think I'd maintain... but realistically, I"d probably gain. Not back up this high, I hope, but I doubt I'd just settle into 135 while still having 250+ habits.
