Title: Weight Gain Fear - Please Advise

I am 5 10 and i WAS 245 at the outset. This has been my daily routine for just under 4 weeks

5-6 days week i am training - combo of resistance and aerobics from anywhere between 45 mins and 90 mins - varying it from day to day. Sometimes classes.
And i am eating an average of 1500 cals per day (+ or - 200) i eat pretty healthy i think. Balance of vegs, breads and proteins. And some fats. And some choc when i like - but small amounts.

200-400 cal breakfast without fail!
1-2 pieces of fruit as snacks in between meals
approx 400 cal lunch
1-2 pieces of fruit as snacks in between meals
approx 300 cal dinner
lots of water

So far ive lost 11 lbs in just under 4 weeks. And all is well - so far so good. I feel great already.

I still have 60 lbs to go. I happily accept that this is a life long committment - so i am prepared to watch my weight after the goal has been achieved - but eating my maintenance amount rather than less.

SO, my only concern is that once i reach my target weight and start eating ALITTLE more - ONLY upto my daily maintenance level and continuing exercise - is there any risk that i might put it back on? Basically, can anyone find fault with what i am doing.

Ive read alot and educated myself reasonably well - no fad diets here.

Anyone got my hints tips?

    i would like to say congradulations on your success so far! to me it sounds like you got it down. i really like the fact that you have excepted the fact that this is a long journey and that you have so much confidence and modivation. your diet and workout plan sounds excellent to me:) i do know from personal experience though that you will reach a point where you feel like nomatter how much you workout or how healthy you eat you can't lose weight. for me it happened when i was about 15 to 20 lbs away from my goal. i over came that by increasing the intensity level of my workouts and eating the same amount. it will take a little longer to lose that little bit of extra weight but it will eventually happen.. keep up the good work and i wish you the best of luck :)
