Afraid of going back
Hello All! I recently hit my goal weight (about 3 weeks ago) and I am deathly afraid of going back (again). I still use MFP to track and maintain my calories. I am fearful to eat the max of my maintenance range because I do not want to go back. I weighed myself a week later, and I lost another pound. One night this week, I…

Taking (A) Sick Day(s)
Hello all, I am wondering what the rest of you maintainers do when you get sick? How do you reassess your diets and exercise programs to allow for some extra rest time when you are feeling under the weather? Personally, I become a big baby, give in to cravings and skip workouts. Fortunately, I am not sick often, but really…

Maintenance Calories Question
For those that are maintaining, do you go by what MFP tells you for your maintenance calories? MFP set me at 1490, which is only 90 above what I was at when loosing. (MFP had me at 1200. I changed it to 1400 as 1200 was not enough for me.) I've checked a couple other sites and get between 1800 to 2090 to maintain. To give…

"You're beautiful, you don't need to watch calories."

weird question- splitting your breakfast?
Anyone else do this? I feel like I'm tricking myself into thinking I'm eating a mid morning snack. I eat breakfast at 6am, before my workout, and save a 1/4 of it to eat at 9am as a small snack. It's oatmeal and vanilla muscle milk poured over it, BTW

Opinions, please...
I’m transitioning into Maintenance, from weight loss. I’m fine with the idea of counting calories/logging food for the rest of my life. But weighing food… Nope. So my idea is to have a 50-100 calorie a day deficit almost every day (not worrying about it Thanksgiving, Christmas, 4th of July, Memorial Day, New Year's Eve,…

Transitioning to Maintenance... now with food anxiety
So, I've finally hit my goal of 110lbs/50kg and dead chuffed, but I've gotten really paranoid about tracking my food. I weigh everything, literally. I no longer go out for lunch with friends, unless it's a place with a menu and nutritional information. I feel anxious about the fact I have a big family party tomorrow and…
