I have reset my goal weight to 140, down 5 pounds. I think that maintenance will not feel so much like a tight wire act if I don't feel concerned about every variance.

A wise buddy told me to write out a plan for how to make this a life change forever, and I think that would really help going forward. Here goes...

EAT VEGETABLES: I still need to make a conscious effort to include multiple servings of veggies each day.

DRINK WATER

PLAN MEALS EACH WEEK: Planning every meal has never really worked for me, but I need to plan for dinners each week so that I know I have a good option to prepare. I can also do things such as making double batches so I have dinner handy in the freezer for those nights when I don't have time to cook.

CONTROL PORTIONS: I love to eat all sorts of food and I have learned that is possible as long as I don't overindulge.

NO LATE EVENING SNACKS: Have some water or tea, brush my teeth, take a walk, go to bed... I need to avoid those evening munchies.

TRY NEW HEALTHY RECIPES: I have learned a lot of new ways to prepare vegetables, especially. I want to continue to expand my options by keeping my eye out for tasty and healthy dishes as well as healthy snacks.

EXERCISE: Continue to go to the gym, take a lot of hikes, try new and challenging things to maintain this wonderful energy I have created.

STAY MINDFUL OF THE CHOICES I MAKE: There will be times when I will find myself eating out, at parties, traveling, in all sorts of life's interesting situations. I need to be aware of what I need and make the best choices I can. This includes those glasses of wine or pints of beer as well.

There may be more, but I think that is a solid start. I am going to keep tracking my food on FS for the foreseeable future. I have benefited so much from doing that and it will help me stay on track.

Sounds like a terrific plan. It's reminding me I have to get back to following my plan for the week. I end up following it at the beginning of the week. Have too many leftovers so continue eating those as I do not want to waste them.

Nice plan and also like the idea of dropping just a little more weight to give you more 'wiggle room' (and presumably, less stress).

That is a great plan! If you are looking for more exciting ways to prep veggies, I highly highly recommend this cook book: http://www.amazon.com/Plenty-Vibrant-Vegetable-Recipes-Ottolenghi/dp/1452101248 There are so many delicious recipes in there. I modify some to make them more low-calorie, but overall, it's excellent.
