• But as anyone who has ever successfully lost weight knows, it’s avoiding weight re-gain that’s the real challenge.
• People who follow behavioural weight management programmes (such as WW, formerly Weight Watchers) regain between 30-35% of their lost weight after one year.
• First, maintaining weight loss is less rewarding than seeing the number on the scale decrease while you’re losing weight.

1. Be flexible

• Don’t feel guilty when you have a slip-up.
• Doing this can prevent an “all or nothing” approach to weight management – whereby you feel guilty when you don’t achieve your goals and so instead abandon your efforts.

2. Plan for disruptions

• Recognise that there will be disruptions to your weight management efforts – such as holidays, weddings and birthday parties.
• Plan ways to navigate these disruptions successfully.

3. Be proud of your achievements

• Our weight naturally fluctuates over time – and so being proud of yourself when you achieve your goals, regardless of the number on the scale, is important.
• This might be because they’re less likely to be affected by setbacks (such as regaining some weight).

4. Make habits

Creating habits can help maintain weight loss. This is because habits are thought to be less affected by fluctuations in motivation. This means that even when we can’t be bothered, the habits we implemented to help us lose weight will be easier to stick with when trying to maintain weight loss. You could also create some new habits after losing weight – such as going for a walk after dinner or taking the stairs when possible.

5. Get active

• The best physical activity for maintaining weight loss is the one you enjoy doing most.
• But research suggests you should try to get at least 250 minutes of exercise each week to maintain weight loss.

6. Weigh yourself regularly

• By weighing yourself regularly, you can develop a personalised weight range of your highest and lowest average weight.
• Research shows that people who use personalised weight ranges are better able to prevent large weight regain because they’re able to adjust their behaviours when necessary.

7. Eat breakfast – and focus on fibre

• Although the overall evidence on the importance of breakfast in weight management is mixed, one study found that almost 97% of people who kept their weight off reported having breakfast each day.
• Eating these types of foods means you feel fuller and are more likely to eat less.
