Confessions of a Maintainer

Been on maintenance for approx one month - started just before holidays. Haven't really gained any but the daily fluctuations are wild - 2 to 3 lbs even. I know this has to do with water, sodium, food volume, even humidity but I confess it freaks me out as I weigh myself everyday and hate seeing the number go up.

So I will stick with with approx 1500 cals per day (eating back most exercise calories) until 1 Sept and then probably drop to 1200 cals again to lose another 5lbs - at least - then get back to maintenance by Christmas. Also in October my former 'walking' commute of 6km daily will change to a +8km bike ride so that will change some things around for sure.
