I've been maintaining a 70lb loss since I was 52. I'm now 69. And I live with a junk food/sweet eater. Life would have been much easier without those foods in the house, but then, I wouldn't have had a happy husband. I've learned to have HB eggs, hamburger patties, bacon, a low calorie protein creami, and other options available at all times. It can be done!
I like your honesty and realistic approach! For me, I'm 50, not menopausal yet, and I have a good weight for my height but just have very stubborn fat around my belly area. I did lose some weight recently which I am very happy about. For me, I think food preparation helps the most. For example preparing healthy snacks instead of unhealthy ones, pre cooking whole grains and other good options in the morning. (I probably still should eat even less carbs in general.) So having healthier alternatives ready to eat does help a lot. What I find difficult is that there are always unhealthy options in our house, as I have a family and they just buy whatever they like. But when I have my own food prepared it definitely helps.

Thank you for sharing! ❤️
That's great! I'm 63 and have maintained an 80+ pound weight loss for ten years.
Congratulations! Good for you. :)
