Hello!!
I've reached my maintenance weight, goal accomplished!
Yet, during the week, I've been still eating ~ 200-300 calories less than my maintenance requirement.
Eating 200-300 less, so when the weekend rolls around, I splurge & eat a good 1000-1500 > than maintenance. A day or two I won't even count & simply enjoy the food!
Admittedly though, I sometimes feel sick from the calorie flux, it just makes sense. Love pizza, pasta, & sweets!
In the meantime my weight hasn't changed. Been doing this for ~ 4 weeks.
Any thoughts?
