About 7 years ago I began my weight loss adventure. I set a goal weight, and reached it. Then I would try to find an amount of calories I could eat to maintain that goal weight, but by the time I had my metabolism sped back up I had gained about 15 pounds, so I would go back on a diet to reach my goal weight. RINSE AND REPEAT.
I'm looking for advice about how to speed my metabolism back up without gaining all the weight. I'm coming off of a 1500 calories a day diet. I'm trying a refeed plan now. I'm eating 2100 calories for 3 days then a refeed day of 2750 calories then 2 days of 2100 calories then a refeed day of 2750 calories. I've been doing that for 2 weeks now. I've gained about one and one half pounds over my goal weight in the last week. I reached my goal two weeks ago. The first week after reaching my goal I went to 1750 calories and didn't gain any weight, and then I increased it to where I'm at now, and did gain weight. Any ideas.
