    Go slowly. If you add too many, you will gain, so only add a few each week or so to see where the point is at which you start to gain. I have made the mistake in the past of thinking that I could just go back to eating the way I ate before, but I cannot if I want to maintain. Did you use a specific plan? I know Atkins adds them back in over weeks or months.
