I have been maintaining for almost 3 months. I never changed my calorie goals in mfp, just resumed the mindless bites and occasional snacks. I was losing over a lb a week before so I guess I am eating approx. 3500 calories this way every week now!

I am taking a break from drinking for the month of January. I usually have one glass of wine or a beer with dinner And sometimes another one later on. I way overindulged in December though. My activity level has stayed the same and I am Consuming the same number of calories because I swapped my booze for other treats. My…

This! On hardboiled eggs, oven fries, veggies, stirfry...

fat free greek yogurt+ mashed avocado+ diced jalapeno + diced onion + lime juice + salt and pepper. Very yummy dip for veggies or topping for tacos, burrito bowls etc.

Yummy! Ralphie and I love it, raw in salads or cooked and drizzled with cider vinegar.

I love guiness cake! Don't have any guiness on hand though :)

Love egg rolls! I bet this would be good with shrimp or chicken too. Thanks for sharing.

Fresh raspberries with dark chocolate chips stuffed inside. Tastes sooo good and you can have a ton of them for very few calories. White chocolate chips are good this way too!

Sardines are my favorite! More than 100 calories but high on protein, good fat and omega 3s

Good Food Made Simple Macaroni and cheese bowls are my favorite. Approx. 400 calories and delicious! Their burritos are yummy too!

I try to always make my protein goal and let the fat and carbs fall where they may. Before I have a snack in the evening I check my macros on mfp. If I still need protein, I eat some.

I added you, not all my meals are healthy but lots are!

That looks yummy! One of my favorite restaurants serves a salad with roasted Brussels, dried cranberries, toasted pine nuts and blue cheese crumbles. It is sooo good!

Sesame Melba toast round topped with cottage cheese, roasted red pepper, salt and ground black pepper

Cucumber salad is great, I have made it like the poster above but also sometimes with sour cream. It's good in green salads, tuna and egg salad sandwiches, and chicken soup too.

Smart!

Awesome ideas! Thanks everyone!

Yum! Sauerkraut is sooo good!

Never had or made this before, I'll have to search FoodNetwork for a good recipe!

Chicken thighs plus bacon and beer, cant go wrong with that combo! thanks!

3 cups self rising flour, 12 oz beer, 1/3 cup sugar. Mix together and bake at 350 for 55 minutes, brush with melted butter near the end. Beer Bread!! Not great for sandwiches but perfect alongside soup or topped with a fried egg for breakfast. You can add cheese or herbs too to make different flavors. Cheddar and dill are…

I traded with a cousin. She used to be thin and now is heavier. Worked out great for both of us. Maybe you can post on craigslist to find someone you can swap with. Either way, I say definitely get rid of most of your bigger stuff. You are more likely to keep the weight off if you are faced with going to the store to buy…

That sounds awesome and so easy. Made me remember a fondue recipe I have somewhere, too. Beer and cheese, yummy!!!!

Ha-ha! Chicken skin is my weakness too!

Mmmm, love pork chops. Might try this with one of the ciders. Thanks!

Cheese! I HAVE to have some. I would have a hard time giving up chocolate or pork too.

Meatloaf wth veggies in it, smoothies

That sounds awesome!

Good idea! I love onion rings, not sure about fried pickles but it would be worth trying!

Oohhh good one! I have a doohickey somewhere for doing this. I'll have to dig it out!
