I've found "maintaining" weight has been much more difficult than losing weight was myself. Losing weight for me was pretty close to what you mentioned eating less calories than I burned. Maintenance for me so far has been kind of a guessing game at times. I've been yo-yoing between about a 8 pound range for two months.

I'm interested to see how it goes for you during the marathon training. Most of my marathon friends have told me that losing weight and marathon training do not work well together, and most of them actually gain a little during a marathon training cycle.
