How do y’all do maintenance? The first time I lost weight here I did it largely by intuitive eating. Then I gained a few lbs back by intuitive eating because I took to heart insulting comments about my being too skinny (although I was not skinnier than my natural set point of my earlier adult years). Eventually I started eating/drinking more and then gained some more of the weight back (Which I have lost, reaching my goal weight today). Point is, I don’t understand the formula that takes my calories from losing to maintenance without edging into gaining. Please explain? I could google it but am interested to hear what is working for you guys. Thanks in advance.

For me, it’s testing out calories and weighing daily. If you are losing then increase your daily calories if you are gaining then decrease your calories. Eventually you’ll find a sweet spot. Like I’m cutting right now and at 168 I could eat 1800-2000 calories and the scale won’t budge so that would be my maintenance daily calories if I wanted to stay at 168. Hope that helps

I've been in maintenance mode for awhile now and I find it challenging at times. For me it doesn't mean I can eat whatever I want..I still log so I'm aware of what I eat and I can adjust accordingly. I also ate 90% clean while losing weight. I'm more lax now but would like to return to that kind of eating as it definitely helped my auto immune issues.
I guess it's a trial and error kind of thing and you have to play around with it and see what works for you.

It's tricky to find the calories to maintain weight. The best way is to do what superman6283 suggests. You'll eventually find that number by trial and error.

We'll hear from people who managed to maintain for a longer time, but after 51 days in blue, i would say I still have to monitor what I eat and keep it balanced. I slowly increased the average intake, but am still way below the supposed recommended level. So for now, it's mostly the same discipline with a little bit less stress since I make sure to keep a margin below my goal weight and I know I can lose a few pounds when I need to. Not letting the guard down is the plan at this time, not intuitive pizza, charcuterie, bread butter and cheese eating. As for what other people think, I could not care less.

I heavy weight train. The scale may go up but you’re burning more with muscles. It’s scary at first but now I’m at the point that I have to eat more to keep weight on.

I used the TDEEcalculator.net and it took a bit to figure out what activity level I was. My husband did the same and he's been maintaining since May. He likes still counting calories but we're not as worried about weighing things and being really precise (we've also gotten better at eyeballing). You'll have a range of calories as well rather than a set goal. Mine is 1900-2300 usually. His is 2500-3000. Depends on if it's a gym or hiking day or a normal activity day.

My standard answer to your question is to continue to log your meals and monitor your weight.

I've added 100 calories to my baseline for weight loss. I'm still s-l-o-o-w-l-y losing. That's okay with me! I'm also continuing my exercise routine. I have to log my food intake, or I will be tempted to reward myself with "treats". That is not a good idea unless I just returned from a two hr hike in the mountains!😁

My doctor wanted me to add 200-400 calories on maintenance and I gained too fast. But I am 65 and more sedentary than when I was younger chasing my 5 kids!!
Usually they ask you to add 50-100 kcalories daily till you neither lose nor gain then that’s your maintenance number.
At my age, it’s not much higher than my regular diet. Unfortunately!!😂😉
