It’ll come back to about 135 tomorrow I think. I’m good with 134-136 for now. Oddly enough it’s getting so that I can lose fairly easy at maintenance 😳. Slowly that is! Either my metabolism is finally lined back out, I’m under calculating my calories out, over calculating my food OR I’m gaining some muscle which raised my BMR just enough to see a very slow loss. Really hoping it’s the first AND last!

I heard Deadpool saying, if your losing at maintenance it’s cause it’s not your maintenance 😉

So that’s still a calorie deficit for you

If you don’t mind still losing slowly keep eating that many calories if you want to stop losing you must increase a little

Very true. With my activity the calculators say my maintenance is 1500-1900. Big range there! From my experiences I gain on 1900-2000 and lose on 1600 or less. So that means maintenance is 1700-1800. Exercise log averages out to be 1700-1750 per day usually but slow weeks can be 1600-1650. If I think of maintenance as 1600 then I’m good. It’s a mind game for me. I have real issues with staying in the middle ground!! I wish I had your willpower lol. 1200 is hard when I’m trying for it but this week it’s easy so far-not including Tuesday when I wanted to treat myself to tropical smoothie ;). Had to be in town from 10am until 6pm and didn’t feel like trying to pack a lunch. Depressing to eat in the car or the park alone. Makes me miss my kids so a quesadilla and smoothie seemed the best compromise as it also gave me over half my daily protein.

I find that if I try to stick to 1600 I end up going way over. 😵 I think it’s because I know I have more calories to spend so I pick higher calorie lunches then have to skimp at dinner which makes me ‘hangry’ and the kids usually pick that night to be a pain in my a**. That means when I grab a snack I’m thinking of that and don’t log first to make sure it fits. Not an emotional eater much anymore but I’m not a mindful eater when stressed, upset or overwhelmed. I just don’t think about it with everything else bouncing around in my head. 1500 seems a good middle ground because I can go to 1600 and not feel guilty. Or like this week I can stick to 1200 on easier days which allows for a weekly meal that’s high calorie :).
