What is harder to do?

Answer 1

good for you losing the weight i think the hardest to be would be keeping the weight off .i hope i do as well as you have just started the gym!!!!!!

Loose weight is harder.

If you loose the weight, you only need to keep on your plan to maintain.

Loosing the weight is the biggest battle

I don't think keeping it off is that hard. It is much easier to maintain a weight than to lose weight in my opinion.
