You're definitely not overeating, so congrats on keeping more than 100lbs off. I eat more than your daily amount for breakfast everyday so I have a different perspective for you regarding weight maintenance. The carbs are an important part of your nutrition so instead I would suggest you set a goal of 10k steps a day and use a tracker to monitor it. Also, I always lost weight by eating more protein, not less food.

fruit is pure sugar. Many of us can't lose unless we drop the carbs to under 20 gms a day.
I would encourage you to increase your protein and eat as few carbs as possible.
I would cut out the sweets with your tea and cut out popcorn completely. My doctor had us cut out all sugar and all carbs that are the bread or starchy type....no popcorn, no potatoes, no bread or cereal or pasta! I use stevia in my coffee, and read all labels, all products must be under 5 grams of sugars. Try that and I bet you will see a difference! Plus popcorn has a lot of salt which can make you retain water! Also make sure you are drinking lots of water, no sodas at all!! Even diet sodas are off limits!
thankyou i will try the 10k steps but that seems a chore to me
thats why i thought of doing the dance class 10 minutes i might try doing it twice a day i also decided to eat only when im starving . Isn't it funny you get so hungry you could eat a horse and then halfway through a small plate your full as a bull.

I agree the 10k steps a day is hard and I usually don't get there but the journey is worth it. If you do simple things like park a little farther away at the store, a walk around the block, just basic stuff works towards the goal. Many people make the mistake of thinking they have to start jogging or training like a hard core athlete. It's really just try to get in steps where you can, and monitor it.
