It's more a maintenance for me now. I was 330 lbs in my 50s and joined Weight Watchers and struggled for years to get to 250. Then bounced back and forth between 250 and 280 until I read a health blog by Lee Aase (https://www.social-media-university-global.org/my-health-journey/) that helped me make a lifestyle decision and take control of my weight. Lee posted my story on his health blog - https://www.social-media-university-global.org/2020/08/john-bishops-journey/.
I originally set a goal of 220 lbs but reached it and changed to 200 lbs which is what I weighed when I got out of the Navy. I got down to about 204 a couple of times but changed my mind about what is the best and easiest weight to maintain for me. So now I just try to maintain between 215 and 220. I also bought a bluetooth scale to weigh myself daily and keep better track of my water weight, BMI, muscle mass - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L19TY8X.
