Get to 180lbs and maintain that weight! Currently at 205 and was 220 in December

I have the exact same profile. I was 220 on Jan 1. Got down to 195 in early March. But I gained a lot of it back during covid. I’m probably around 210 now. I just need to have the will power to stop snacking and keep moving throughout the day. One good thing is I’m not drinking much.

EY1 I think that's a fair point. What I'd love to get to is a balanced point where I am so secure in myself, my decisions, and my ethics that I'm not emotionally shaken by anything that anyone says about me because I trust myself. If it's fact-based, it has merit. If someone is just saying something without a lot of basis, then I want to be graceful about the fact that they might be having a bad day, projecting, or something else that isn't actually as a result of my actions or work.
