Maintaning your weight . Please help!

Hi I am a 5'4, 143 lb male. I started using MFP last year. My starting weight was around 187 lbs and after using MFP and exercising, I lost 50 pounds in a span of 3 months(Dec-Feb). After reaching 137 lbs, I stopped using MFP and went back to my normal diet. As of now, I gained around 7 pounds since I stopping my diet. I feel bad because after the hardwork that I have done, I am now gaining weight again. What can I do to maintain my weight to 135-140 lbs? Please help! Thanks!

  • Eat the calories MFP gives you. You can change your settings to "maintain" weight and eat that amount of calories. Try to stay with in that calorie range, with VERY little left otherwise you will lose weight and very little over or you will gain
