2-Week Maintenance Results!

Yesterday completed my 2-week maintenance of eating 2300 calories a day.  It was difficult to eat that much food up until the 10th day when I started getting hungry and then it became extremely easy.  I expected to gain 3-6 pounds while my body leveled out at maintenance but as you can see below, I only gained 2.6 pounds.  I lost an entire inch off my body (neck, waist, hip) and gained 1/2 inch (thigh and calf).  


Here is the summary of my results for this 2-week period:

Scale gain = +2.6 pounds

Inches lost = 1 inch 

Inches gained = 1/2 inch


Here is my weight chart for the past 2-weeks as I went from 162.0 to 164.6 (my old scale went from 158-161):


Here are my calories eaten for the week and my weekly average was 2299 calories:

Saturday - 2512
Sunday - 2069
Monday - 2289
Tuesday - 2280
Wednesday - 2244
Thursday - 2291
Friday - 2406


Here are my exercise minutes this past week, the chart is from WW:



210 minutes hiking
190 minutes strength training
55 minutes dancing
14 minutes rowing

Here's today's stats on where I am as I start my deficit today:



This was an amazing experience and I'm so excited to see where my deficit for the next 3 weeks takes me! :-)
