I have finally reached my goal weight after a long four month cut and I am so happy with how I look. Now I am a bit nervous about transitioning back to maintenance calories. I do not want to accidentally start gaining fat back immediately.

Should I increase my calories all at once or do it gradually over a few weeks? I have heard people talk about reverse dieting where you slowly add back calories to help your metabolism adjust. I am in Canada and I want to be able to sustain this physique for the summer.

What is the best way to find your new maintenance level after losing weight? I know my TDEE will be lower now that I am smaller. I would love to hear some advice on how to successfully exit a cut and move into a long term maintenance or lean bulk phase.
