    Thanks everyone :) This will be the first time that I've lost weight with a maintenance plan at the end, usually I would just go back to the same way I ate before and gain all the weight back and more...And yes Im handling the carbs well and this week Im adding in more not sure what yet but last week it was potatoes, peanut m&ms, chocolate almond nuggets and popcorn :p

    @1MADGIRL thanks :)

    So Im going to tell you all what a typical splurge day is like for me...

    Yesterday was this...
    1/4 of a turkey, cheese, and bacon Subway sandwich, 3/4 of a chinese meal (general tso's chicken, crab rangoons and broccoli), 1/2 of a chicken and bacon ranch pizza.

    Some Peanut M&Ms, fortune cookie, hot fudge sundae, doritos, sour cream and onion chips, smartfood popcorn, home baked chocolate chip cookies, mini peanut butter cups :p

    amazing haha
    I'm a sucker for fortune cookies... What did yours say? :)

    I need to plan a proper splurge day at some point. Instead I end up cheating on some days and call that my splurge day

    I had someone try to tell me that how I'm eating is not healthy and I just laughed and said yes it is, I've never felt better!!! :p This week I'm doing two water fasting days, Today and Friday and starting tomorrow I'm going to start walking on my treadmill :)

    Nice! Build up slow so don't strain anything. May consider something like 3x week tell get used to it and then could do more. Your younger though so you probably don't have to worry as much as some of us old folks.
