I lost 26kg and kept it off for about 2 years. Some of it has crept back on as my situation changed. But my biggest advice is to find an exercise that you really like. Exercise is the key to looking and feeling great and will keep you up on top when you have a naughty eating day. Think outside the exercise box and try some things that you may like e.g. belly dancing, boxing, soccer, rock climbing, surfing. So many options Hope this helps.
I lost 20kg about 6 years ago now and have pretty much maintained it without dieting or maintaining an exercise regime. My biggest thing was constanly snacking on crap (through boredom) and soft drink. I have a huge sweet tooth and find that denying it makes me want it more so I still eat alot of sweet food, I just make sure that everything else I eat is good. I also walk alot, it is my thing. I hate running, I hate gyms, I don't like organised things. I like just walking.
The problem is what works for me wont work for everyone. Do what you find comfortable and try and see it more as a lifestyle change then a diet.
