Let me start with 208:
208 * 1.08 = 224.6 (close to 222)
208
208 / 1.08 = 192.6 (not so close to 198)
Dividing again by 1.08 gives 178.3 (close to 179)

Were you really at 218 for a while as a “stable” weight, or was that while you were trying to change?

I was at 218 for years until I went on a diet. I got stuck at 198 and didn’t get any lower until I started hapkido.

After I quit hapkido because I started taking anti-depressants, 208 and 222 became the sticking points going up in weight.

However, my activity level between 218 and 222 was quite different. I exercised every morning and evening while I was 218, so it may not be a good comparison.
