well, where to start. i begin p3 later this week. i hit my goal weight. thank good!obviously i am on the nervous side and am going to be cautious. i was hoping to get some input here. I've read you need to slowly increase your calories. at 5ft 2in and 115 lbs it looks like i need between 1500-1600. so i was going to do 900, 1300, 1600. will that work? also, i gained with coconut oil on p2.. does that mean it will happen again on p3?

also, i will be traveling out of the country for two weeks in july. any p3 advice from y'all that have done this before? snacks to pack? i already have a travel scale.
i hope to have stabilized during the 21 days in june before leaving but i planned on doing a six week p3 adding some carbs back after the first three weeks.i did a long round of 40 days and don't want to chance it.

has anyone gained with avacados or salmon? i am scared to try them. it's sends to good to be true to start having these from day one.

I love my travel scale!! It depends on where you're traveling. I eat a diet heavy in plant based foods, meat, and full fat dairy. If you're in Europe, that's not hard at all. Japan is different.

No, avocados don't make me gain at all.

And I love to pack almonds as snacks. When I arrive at my destination, I like to find a market and buy some apples, grapefruit, etc.
