Hi There,
I have been restricting calories since July and although I am some way off from my healthy weight I am worried about how to return to the correct calories without seeing a rapid weight gain.
I have found a few tools which help you calculate the amount of calories you should consume to maintain your weight - so no problem there.
Is it simply a case of gradually increasing the calorie intake over a prolonged timeframe? If so, are there any tried and tested methods? I was thinking of increasing very gradually over a number of weeks. I am on just under 1600 per day now and at target should be looking to increase to around 2000.
Thanks for any pointers.
