Let's Post Our #1 Weight Loss/Maintenance Tip
I searched to see if there was a thread like this already and no luck.
There are so many great tips out there that everyone writes, why not put them all in one thread? 
Mine is:
Using the slimfast.com weight chart (or a similar tool) to enter a weekly weigh-in.
I lost 40 pounds about 5 years ago and have kept it off because Im forced to face reality everytime I type in that weight each week.

Re: Let's Post Our #1 Weight Loss/Maintenance Tip
Mine is weighing myself everyday
I know a lot of "experts" say not to do this, but it keeps me in line...

Me, too!!!
Plus, my weigh in is on Saturdays. Friday nights I am forced to be good, but I let myself have Saturday night to indulge a little.

I wait until Tuesday. I always weigh more on Monday morning from little splurges over the weekend, so I give myself the gift of 24 hours to settle down.

Re: Let's Post Our #1 Weight Loss/Maintenance Tip
I weigh myself every few days but need to be more consistent. Just checked out the slimsfast site. Thanks for posting it!
As for tips:
I didn't lose the weight overnight nor will I gain it overnight but I do have to have accountability to someone to stay on track.
Also, give your larger sizes away. I'm determined not to go back.

Re: Let's Post Our #1 Weight Loss/Maintenance Tip
I've only lost 3 lbs but mine is going to meetings and shopping after the meeting. If I have stuff in the house I eat much better.
On TV I saw a girl who put a scale in front of her fridge which I thought was kind of clever

Re: Let's Post Our #1 Weight Loss/Maintenance Tip
I try to have a HUGE lunch each day... a good portion of my calories, and something really small for dinner (sometimes just a PB&J and 100 cal pack).
I find myself ravenously hungry from wakeup -> 5pm and at night Im not so bad, so I can scrimp on the food then.
