Why you shouldn't exercise to lose weight
Exercise is harder to keep up long term and gaining back the same weight after 5 years is not that useful.

Not for me. I may have stopped working out for long periods, since then, but the 6-7 months of diet change stuck which was enough to maintain the weight loss (approximatley). 14 years now.

I see stories like yours and I wonder if the key factor is that you decided in a meaningful way to not be overweight anymore.
The exercise and better diet follow pretty easily from that.

Exercising every 5 years isn't so bad.
