Congrats on your hard work and meeting your goal. I suggest lots of water and maybe a couple of aspirin before you pass out to avoid a hangover tomorrow.

Congratulations!! I have many miles to go. They say maintenance is the hardest part. I'm no expert but it seems that if a person continues to exercise regularly and hard enough, they should be able to easily maintain on 1800 calories. Like I said, I'm no expert. I'm sure it depends on body type anyway. I hope somehow can help you out. I just wanted to congratulate you!

try resetting your MFP goals to 0 lbs per week, and see what it tells you. I'm guessing it will be in the 2,400-2,500 range.

Just type it in to Myfitnesspal that you want to maintain your weight I should give you what you need to consume to do that

Great job.

Just set your goal to maintain in the MFP goal setting tool and it will give your net calories to maintain. They will probably need to be fine tuned a bit and increase to them gradually say 100 or so calories every two weeks.

Now, you set new goals for something even better. Never peak out, because that's when people backslide right back to fat city.
