I use cups to estimate portions. I usually don't include vegetables in my diary as they are nearly calorie less, but guess I should be more accurate with my logging. I'm sure though I didqn't eat as much as I used to during my maintenance period, not as much calories that could lead to a 7 lbs gain a week.

Yes I log in my intake nearly daily. I do have a calorie deficit. I eat complex carbs at breakfast, proteins and fibers at lunch, and usually a cup of yogurt and some fruits for dinner. Yet I seem to tremendously have gained. I was to eat so much more before I actually started limiting my intake, yet I was thinner.

What's IIFYM please?

I guess it's in the range of 3000 to 4000 calories. Can that make me lose my progress? And is it more recommended to have a cheat DAY or a cheat MEAL? I walk daily to college too.

Thank you guys for your help. I guess I'll increase my calorie intake gradually :D great thanks again!

I'm aware my metabolism is damaged as a result of all the starving, but what's worrying me is that if I increase my calorie intake, I'll gain more instead of lose since my metabolic rate is already low.
