One thing to keep in mind is that when you are very heavy, you can eat a lot and lose weight, because you need a lot of calories. When I was over 200 pounds, I was eating 2200 to 3000 calories and losing weight easily (I did exercise too). However, I really stalled around 190. To lose the last 15, I really needed to cut back the calories and ramp the exercise.
On maintenance, I need to keep the calories below 2500 and exercise or I gain weight.
