I reached my initial goal in January and have been maintaining since then - actually down a few pounds from original goal of 135- and am wearing the size clothes I set as another goal. I'm keeping up with exercise and water consumption and eating low-carb 99% of the time. This works for me. I'm happy with it and feel great but I won't really consider it a total success until I've maintained this weight for over a year.

Good luck with finding a healthy WOE that works for you.
