How to eat all those available cals?
Greetings! I made it to maintenance! Woohoo! How have y'all adapted to the uptick in calories? When I changed my goal in MFP to maintenance, my calorie allowance jumped 800 calories!!! I don't know how to eat that many more calories. I don't stay that hungry. And I certainly do not want to go back to eating the way I was…

Maintain or main 'taint?
Hello, fellow maintainers! I'm at that old goal weight once again. It brings such a mix of feelings: Wanting to stop worrying about my weight all the time and but also wanting to lose just a little bit more. Always an interesting moment. (I've been here many times!)

Maintain weight and get stronger!
Hello ! I'm back after a couple months. I've lost 130lbs and finally am at a weight I like. It took me 10 years to lose it all. The last 2 years I really hit the gym and measured everything I ate. Is it hard to maintain? I feel like if I let up, I'll gain it back.

Not Just Another Weight Loss Attempt - Looking Ahead This Time
Hey everyone, I’ve been on and off the weight loss train for over a decade—lose the weight, gain it back, and each time I end up a little heavier than before. I just restarted my journey three days ago and I’m feeling good about losing the 20 lbs I’ve set as my goal. But this time, I’m trying something different. I’ve…

Back at it, woman. Talking to myself here.
Way back - I gained a lot of weight in my forties. More than just some middle age desk job type weight. I ate all the candy at the office, every donut I could, half gallons of ice cream in a sitting. Entire packages of cookies before bed. Four trips back to the all-you-can-eat buffets, beer, wings, chips, pizza…you get the…

4348 Day Streak! Maintaining!
I lost over 55 lbs more than ten years ago using the MyFitnessPal app, and I’ve kept it off by logging every single day. I never miss…… ever. I record the good, the bad, and the ugly, and it works for me. One of the things I’ve loved over the years is how much I’ve learned about food: what has which calories, what’s…

Changing calorie goal to maintain
I will hit my weight loss goal soon so I will be upping my daily calorie goal. If I change the calorie goal does it revert back to day one? Thanks for any advice on the app changes I need to make in order to move into maintenance.

Base goal
Why does the program keep changing my base goal??? I set it for what I WANT but it keeps reverting to a different setting. Leave it to what I set it for!!!

Lost my weight history
I had not opened the app for about 10 - 12 days, so this morning I went to add my weight and I was asked to log in, which I thought was strange as I have not had to log in for quite some time. I had to change my password due to a new 10-character criteria, so it looks like the app had been upgraded (I do not have the…

Maintenance is challenging
i signed up for a full year of MFP premium after reaching my goal weight. Ive been raising my calorie intake gradually and so far so good. I think that if i continue to log and measure for at least another month or so i might feel confident enough to eyeball my portions. My big win for last week was celebrating a…

Refeeding and then Reduce Calories only to Gain Weight
Has anyone, after a refeeding period, stuggled with gaining weight when you try and lower kcals under maintainance kcals? I've been refeeding for about 3 months. I went from a daily kcal of 600 - 800 per day to 2800 to 3200 per day. After finding the weekly average of maintaining at 2350 k cals per day, I have been trying…

Need advice on how to flip the mental switch of 'I aim to lose' to 'I need to maintain'
Hi! I feel I need to change some habits, having issues with what I said in the title. I've lost my weight over 3 years. I wasn't always consistent, but it remained my goal throughout those 3+ years. I really really really want to gain muscles now. I'm very soft (from my perspective). But I find that all the habits I…

Reached goal today but nothing extraordinary happened with the app?
this morning my weight went below my actual goal, which I’m sure isn’t unusual, but I expected there to be some reaction from the app, but there was nothing. My daily calorie goal hasn’t changed to maintenance, etc. I’m surprised that reaching goal did not trigger something. It took 5 1/2 months to lose almost 30 pounds…

Idle Maintenance Musing
Putting on leggings yesterday morning, I realized they’ve faded and barely pass the “bend over” test any more. I was kind of cheesed off, til I realized, they are almost six years old, and have easily been used dozens and dozens and dozens of times. Six years? Wowwwwwwwww. It’s gone so fast. The blink of an eye. All that…

My start weight was 103kg and now I’m a couple of kilos away from my target of 82.5kg (188cm male). My aim is to maintain in the range of 80-85kg. Historically, I’m really…
