I absolutely do not judge those who may gain weight after losing a small amount or a substantial amount.
The only thing you can control is what you eat. Your body decides what to do with it. Teaser has posted studies that seem to indicate the dieted body is never the same as the never-dieted/maintained-normal-weight-over-the-years body and I've seen it in my life.
I have only respect for those who eat appropriately for their bodies (which for most of us is low carb) and keep on keeping on whether their body decides to maintain a loss or slowly put back the weight.
My experience tells me that you can eventually lose again, but it is never easy, and it probably gets more difficult each time you try.
