Welcome Gailbuf! Congratulations on that amazing weight loss. And taking 3 1/2 years is a good time frame.
"Results that are Fast, Don't last"

There are a number of functions that do not work well on this old, creaky forum, but all the saved information is amazing..back to 2002. You will not be able to read journals, but I post in my Success Story or on the threads for the programs I follow. For example, click the button for Success or here is a link to Dr Ted Naiman's meme on the changes to Metabolism between starting and when at Weight Maintenance.

I easily maintain my weight loss (now, I didn’t on keto). by eating a semi-LC diet with high protein, high nutrient density, high fiber..all things that contribute to a Higher Satiety Per Calorie. And adding more exercise! so you are doing all the right things.

Demi is the expert on adding photos. I followed her advice to use an outside image service, and you can see examples in my success story.
