Hi, I have seen a few people mention that they are on 'maintenance' now and just wondered; does that mean when you've lost the weight you want, you are just trying to keep it off? :smile:

    Yes. Once you hit your goal you are trying to 'maintain' your current weight, hence the term maintainance.

    Yup! I have my calculator set to maintain my current weight. I now use it to keep track of what I am eating and not go overboard.

    I am working with a personal trainer to tone up now, so the weight will fluctuate of course, but I think I am on the right track for my end goal.

    Good luck!
