I celebrated by having a full bowl of cereal and milk for breakfast. Now what folks? Do I just switch to maintenance?
I lost nearly 30 lbs. Thanks in advance.

    Yes, I would transition slowly to maintenance calories. Maybe 100 extra per week to avoid gain on the scale.

    Congrats!

    I never thought about gradually increasing calories but that sounds like a solid plan.

    Keep posting so we know what works best to maintain. Soon enough all of us will need the info

    I have been keeping a 5-600 calorie deficit for 4 months. Thanks for the positive reinforcement. I am allowing myself 2 glasses of wine about 180 calories) as my extra in celebration today. I will be posting my new thinner picture soon. The one I have is before my weight loss.
