Uh, maintenance? Can't really call it that. I didn't follow the rules. But the first week was the week before I went on vacation - I just added in more carbs and calories. Any carb bloat (and farties) I wanted to have stabilized
before I was hanging around with strangers in a skimpy bathing suit.
I actually behaved myself food-wise while at the resort. I did enjoy quite a bit of fresh fruit, though. However I used portion control. My excercise usualy consisted of rolling over in the chase lounge so I could burn evenly, and booty/freak dancing in the disco at night.
The past week has been totally non-structured. Just too lazy to do anything right. Some days I barely ate, others I ate way too much, but I have gotten more exercise/workouts in.
Now that my days will be structured I will find it easier to eat properly. I expect to lose the water-weight within the first week and then hopefully hit my original goal of 125 lbs and, with luck, make it down to 123 before I go back to "regular" maintenance eating. I don't expect to be on PSMF more than 3-4 weeks this time around.
After PSMF is over I may try to bulk up muscle mass a bit, which will probably mean putting on a couple pounds of fat along with it (since I'll be hypercaloric), but that should be easy to get back off without losing my new muscle, if I am lucky enough to gain any.
OK, I guess I ought to get ready for work. Bleah. At least we won't have any kids until next week. But I'm not ready for summer to be over and will go kicking and screaming back into the school year!
