Welcome! I always liked getting the first few under (or out from under) my belt. It made me feel like I had a "lead to protect" and was really doing this.
I am currently enjoying my longest period of successful maintenance ever after losing over 65 pounds. I took my BMI from 34 to under 25 and have kept it below 25 for ten and a half months. I track calories; everything I eat, every day. I did not stop after I got to goal. I have had several ups and downs in weight over the past few decades. I just turned 60 in the best shape I have been since my 20s, largely driven by fear of being old and unhealthy. Now I will just be old.
