What does maintenance look like for you?

Maintenance

I have officially lost 90lbs and I’m ready to start considering maintenance. All my metrics are healthy. I’m sure I COULD lose more weight bc I’m 5’5 but at 142lbs I feel pretty good with where I am. I am on 12.5 and still experience pretty significant appetite suppression and therefore still losing weight. If I did keep losing it would be no more than 5lbs, I feel very good at this weight.

My doc hasn’t been super helpful in convos about maintenance and rambles about switching to the pill or maybe a lower dose or maybe just staying where I am.

Is this just a trial and error to find what works for me? Any standard approaches to consider?
