[Meta] can maintenance get its own weekly thread, the loss posts drown us out

Meta

can maintenance get its own weekly thread, the loss posts drown us out. Comments open, and the wording is genuinely up for discussion.

Two years at maintenance. The logistics are the only remaining work — ordering, storing, remembering.

The habits from the losing phase are what carry it now. That is not inspirational, it is just what happened.

Drifted up 12kg over a winter and panicked. It came back off without any change, which is apparently just what weight does.

Tell me where this is wrong. That is the useful part of posting it.

Appetite returning before the scale moves follows from the mechanism: the appetite effect is the proximal one and weight is the lagging integrated outcome.

What does your weigh-in frequency look like at this point?

That reads like a taper schedule and this board cannot hand those out.

About c/maintenancephase

The part nobody posts about: what happens at goal weight. Finding a lowest effective dose, dose-interval stretching, regain risk data, muscle retention, the psychology of not having a number to chase, and staying on indefinitely versus tapering.

c/maintenancephase rules
  1. State how long you have been at maintenance. "Maintenance" at week 30 is not maintenance.
  2. Regain is not a moral failing and posts implying it is get removed.
  3. Dose-stretching experiences welcome; dose-stretching instructions are not.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
