Weight Gain over the years

As I said, I started in 2010 and by 2012 I was at goal.  During that period of time I was on active weight loss (product) for eight months, but the whole two years was a constant down on the scale.  So was that dieting or was that maintaining for 16 months and dieting for 8?

From ending the program in August 2012 to August 2013 I had gained 15 pounds.

From August 2013 to August 2014 I had gained 15 pounds.

From August 2014 to August 2015 I had gained 30 pounds.

From August 2015 to August 2016 I had gained 20 pounds.

And after deciding to do this program I put on another 10 pounds.

So there you have it.  For two years I watched, weighed, suffered, everything I put in my mouth.  But obviously those eating habits are hard to break.  If I had stayed the course and continued what I had been doing for the first two years- two and 1/2 years I would have kept it off.

So yes I got a bit worried in 2015 and dropped 20 pounds, for a day, but does that mean it was a 40 pound gain in 2016.

There you have it.  They say if you can keep it off five years you can keep it off forever.  Getting to those five years is the problem.  This time it isn't so much about the weight loss (it is but...)
but what happens after the weight loss.

We can only wait and see.
