    Thank you all so much :) . After reading Sunny's post, I went and re-read my Weight loss journey thread and was further inspired myself. Looking back over the advice I received and the meals I ate made me all the more inspired to make sure I maintain my losses and never go back to where I was.

    I appreciate all of the support I have been given and will continue to share. I really need to go back to posting my meals. My sister has moved out so I will be doing all the cooking myself from now on. I also think I want to do at least two vegetarian days a week. I saw a maintenance plan that had two vegetarian days I had in my weight loss thread that I might use.

    I also saw how close I had gotten to be out of the 150's and was getting an urge to try for 145 again but I don't know. For now I will just focus on sticking to plan and see where it gets me.

    Great attitude about the 145! That's sort of my train of thought too once I hit a comfortable range :) ALSO YES you should post your meals! I love me some food porn :p:p:p

    After reading all three of my threads, I have come up with a new maintenance plan that combines some of all of my previous plans.

    So stoked to see future pics of your meatless meals, Tracey! I'm a lifelong vegetarian, but I love getting new ideas and recipes to try. :) Variety is always nice.

    And to second Steph... I also love some good food porn. :p

    Sunny, please share some of your vegetarian meals as well. I have a few favorites, but would love to expand my repertoire of vegetarian meals.

    Well today turned out to be a splurge day. I will sub it out for one of my weekend days. My meal is pictured below. I did not get the Indian food. I may have it on one of my vegetarian days. We ended up going to Applebees and I had a quesadilla salad and a salad.

    I decided not to specify my meal days andbut just specified the number of days so that I can make changes according to what is going on. So my new plan is 3 OMAD Days, 2 Splurge days and 2 meatless OMAD days.

    Yah it's easier to not pick which days to do what because things change...I'm going to just post what I did and my daily losses at the end of each week instead :)

    Popping in to see how you're doing.

    Keep up the good work, Tracey! You're doing so well.

    Your food pics are awesome as usual! I like the idea of meatless days. I sometimes have them when I do a day with my vegan daughter.
