Why is it so hard to get in the maintenance mindset?
I reached my goal. I have lost weight plenty of times in my life (usually the same 10-15 pounds) but usually felt content enough when I was close enough to my goal so I would stop. The weight would slowly creep back and a year or two later I'd be back to losing those same 10. This is the first time I lost enough to get to…

Wanting to start IIFYM but living at home, help :(
Hello everyone! I've been really considering starting IIFYM but the one problem is that I'm still living at home with my mum (going to be starting University soon and it's in Chinese culture to stay with your parents). That means I really don't get to control or weigh the foods I eat especially at dinner time. I've been…

Celebration

To celebrate I had lunch with the family, now this is how you do a cheat meal properly: 2,310 calories in one sitting with 87 grams of protein :drinker: :laugh: I also enjoyed the holiday sale and bought some new clothes. Today is a good…

What body type am I?
Every site so far has given me a different answer. I'm am a 19 year-old 5'4 107ish female. My measurements are 32-25-34 as of this morning.

Estimating estimates and TDEE
Happily enough, I have eaten exactly what my goal was for the month. You know, according to MFP and the errors inherent in how I eyeball food amounts (DFAC/cafeteria eating), how I have to make my best guess on what everything is or how many calories might be in it, and then eat back calories based on similar estimates of…

Avoiding Weight Loss
Yeah...I have the problem everyone seemingly wants to have! I don't want to LOSE weight at all! Basically, I was pretty overweight heading into college (200lbs at 5'7) and would often skip breakfast and lunch only to snack a bunch when I got home from school and eat a lot at dinner when I was in high school. Determined not…

Somehow lost 4 pounds...
despite eating like there's no tomorrow to try and maintain....There is now cookies and cream cake with my name on it sitting on the counter at work. I am quite willing to share with my co-worker if she would like to partake, but I'm also quite willing to put it out of its sweet, sweet misery all by myself. I'll be…

Calorie goals - how did you go from loss to maintenance?
Just that really. I'd be interested in anyone sharing what their daily calorie goal was during weight loss (and if and how that changed) and you transitioned to maintenance. Here's where I am, in the middle of this process: 11st 11lb (SW) calorie goal 1200 9st 9lb calorie goal 1300 9st 7lb (GW-ish) calorie goal 1400…

Well, I made it! Sort of...
Hi all. I've decided to maintain my current weight for now, so here I am! I am hovering between 15-153lbs at any given time, and have pretty much been there since May. I am slowly increasing my calories to see how close to the recommended "maintenance level" I can get to and not gain, as I know it's not an exact science.…

Unexpected weight loss, but too scared to up my calories
I've reached my goal weigh of 115 pounds 5 months ago and started eating 1550-1600 calories per day since then (other than very occasional binges). I've managed to maintain my weight for a few months until recently when I started slowly losing weight again. Now I'm at 109 pounds for no reason. I exercise twice a week, but…

You will be X weight in 5 weeks
I recently updated my goals to reflect that I wanted to maintain my weight, not lose. Every time in the past, when I've hit complete entry, it comes up and tells me how much weight I should weigh in 5 weeks. I learned to ignore the weight listed when I was trying to eat a deficit, because I read a lot of threads on here…

So I have been maintaining weight well for the past three or four months with some swings upward and downward, but recently I am hungry all the time. I am very hesitant to give into my hunger as I am afraid of gaining back the weight I have lost, but I cannot seem to get full from my meals. I must also add that I drink…

Keep blowing it with night time eating!
In order for me to lose weight my calories need to be 1200. I do well all day but at night I get bored and I snack, it's nothing too horrible. A little fruit or some air popped popcorn, but I know those extra 200-300 calories are keeping me from losing! Any suggestions, or anybody who has been there and figured out a way…
