Maintaining weight loss.

I make lunch, I never buy lunch out unless its like a carton of soup where I can read the calories.

I can drop down to 52kg and still be of a healthy BMI, so I may try and lose a bit more weight and then try and maintain.

I eat healthy every day.

I only have 2 meals in the whole week which I eat whatever I want.

Inspiron, how do you space out your meals? I read this book by Rujuta Diwekar (a high profile Indian dietitian, with lots of Bollywood clients incl Kareena Kapoor) where she says you should eat a little something every 2 hrs or so. Not big meals, obviously! Even something like a fistful of dry fruits is good. That ups your metabolism without kicking in the starvation reflex. Her book isn’t really ground-breaking, but just common sense. For example she says if you want to have dessert, don’t eat it right after a meal. Wait for a couple hours and have it as an in-between mini-meal.
I’ve been trying to follow her recommendations and it has really helped me lose weight faster than exercise alone.
