Oh, I definitely have read your original thread …had just finished that and the sequel when you popped up here! So much helpful info there (and the banter kept it amusing). Just wondered whether you had any new reflections on those issues or things you decided to do differently in years 2-5 that contributed to your success in maintenance. Am going through all the Maintainers threads now and it's comforting to see the different approaches people have taken. Thanks again for all the time you've put into sharing your story with us.

It worked great while I followed it, but I eventually caved in to stress. That's why I am planning to go back and reboot my maintenance approach when I finish the Phase 1 & 3. This time I am addressing stress management as well, which I lost my grip on a couple of years ago. Years 1 and 2 were definitely where I want to be now as far as eating pattern, and it would not change from what I posted in the old thread, which many of us said we all seemed to be converging toward. It worked great, and I'm glad I just reminded myself of that by reading through it as a complete thread. (Besides making myself laugh at Wannabe and me... talk about the Odd Couple! What a hoot -- she cracked me up.)

Having just read through the thread, I have to admit we were characters, all right. Especially Wannabee, who was sausage and eggs until she slimmed to a salad plate for a time. I hope the return of the breakfast plate doesn't mean she gained the weight back...
