    Hi Girls!
    So first all, congratualation to you all losing weight and maintaing :) I am so glad you guys posted about this. It will be 2 years and I have lost 107-110lbs all on my own but started using MFP last July of 2011. In January I broke the 100lb mark.. and since last month I now have a trainer for muscle, weights, and maintaing. The problem is though I am confussed on how many calories I should be maintaing. I am at 113lbs and want to maintain weight between 110 and 115 lbs. I am also have a trainer and work out 6 times a week. Can someone help me out and tell me how many calories I should have on here to maintain? My doctor tells me 1800 then my mom says 2000 and my dad did a caculation and said 2,184 and then my friend who just got certified as a trainer says between 2,300- and 2500 but i feel like thats way to many. I'm getting overwhelmed over nothing because I dont know if I am eating too little or too much. Any help would be very much appericated. Thanks :) Also I was told to eat every 3 hours or a midbreakfast snack around 10 with a bread, cheese and almonds so a carb, protein, fat. If theres any other tips or advice too on eating plans and stuff when to eat and what that would help me out too cuz, at times I dont wanna gain weight just to maintain this. Thanks again!

    Congrats on the weight loss and maintaining.
