I’ve now had 5 years of maintenance at my current weight, and I still Hope it will get easier one of these days.
I've learned that: Things don't happen the same way twice. The way I lose weight or maintain weight now is not the same way that I lost weight or maintained weight five years ago. I can't EXACTLY repeat the things I did before, because I'm a different person now.
I'm 5 years older. Although I am in very good health, the human body is DESIGNED to wear out with age. No matter how hard I work at staying fit, now that I'm over 60, I am ageing more rapidly, and I can see and feel that Process happening. Some activities and exercises that I could do 5 years ago, my present body will no longer tolerate.
My body has also now spent years adjusting and adapting to burn less energy. Retirement from my profession changed my lifestyle. I am active, but in a different way.
This is the Challenge. What works now won't work forever. You have to keep changing and adapting, because life keeps changing whether you like it or not
