Maintaining Weight - Standard Plan
Just thought I'd share this, as this is what is working for me now: Step 1 Once you reach target, add 250 calories a day to your existing daily calorie intake. This means if you’ve been having 1,250 calories each day, you should now have 1,500 calories a day. Step 2 After a week, weigh yourself on your usual scales. You’ll…
