Not sure what other reddit to post this on and not sure how many people will reply, but it's worth a shot.
The numbers on people regaining weight after dieting and weight loss are pretty grim. A huge percentage of people gain back everything they've lost, and some even gain MORE weight. While science has figured out how to get people to lose weight, it's still tricky to get that weight to stay off. This is an uncomfortable and disappointing fact, but it's still true. It's also why many competent nutritionists do not focus on weight at all when trying to improve health, and why gym memberships are predatory.
That being said, I would personally like to lose weight and keep it off long term. I'm sure that's the goal of just about everyone using this reddit. So to those who have lost weight and kept it off long term, what did you do to achieve this? For the sake of not having people who have kept weight off for a couple of months posting; I'm taking about people who have kept weight off for years. The longer the better. One year is the minimum.
I'm especially interested to hear from people who went through significant weight loss, since the more weight you lose the harder it is to keep it off.
Thank you in advance for your responses, and if you know someone who might be able to contribute please share this with them! I'm hoping that people can use this as a resource for keeping weight loss off long term.
