New to Maintenance: Need a few friends

Options
I just acheived a goal beyond expected. I wanted to fit comfortably into a size 8P and I surpassed it by fitting into a size 6P. I don't plan to lose any more weight at this time. I just set my goal for maintenance mode and would like to add some friends who actually eat close to their recommended calories so I can learn from your successes and/or struggles. Or, if you prefer, simply leave a comment with some advice for my newest journey.

    Feel free to add me! :) I set my goals to only .5lbs per week now...gradually increasing my calorie intake. It was too overwhelming to me to jump into maintenance cold turkey. I tried it and it created too much anxiety for me. But I don't want to lose any more weight either.

    Stayin' strong!
