The trouble with Phase 3 aka Stabalization

So, I have been on Phase 3 for about 6 weeks now and FINALLY starting to stabalize. I have had slow gains almost daily. It has been very frustrating and I am now almost 7 pounds above LDW. But the good news is, that I think I have figured it out. I need to eat more! More fat, More protein and more of everything. I posted my menu and my struggles on a yahoo message board and someone added up my calories and told me to eat more. Sounds crazy, but I doubled my calories to about 2000 a day, and have been stable since! What a concept! I had read in Dr. S's book that the biggest problem people have in maintenence is not eating enough, but didn't think that applied to me... wow! HHCG ROCKS!
