Question #1 - In the MRM it mentions that the last stage of repair gets you ready for the Meta Burn Program OR another round of Repair. How will I know whether or not I need another round of repair???
Question #2 - If I do need another round of repair, should I begin it at the same calorie level that I started the first round with? Michelle

Michelle,
Welcome!
You don't mention your satisfaction with your current weight. If you would be okay weighing 3-5 lbs more than you weigh now, for more 16 weeks=4 months=mid October, and then start a deficit then... Then what difference does it make if you "need" or "choose to do" 2 REPAIR programs? ... (although I think I had the same fear in the beginning...)... and if you choose to do Metaburn after 1 cycle of REPAIR, then you can still apply the tools you've learned in REPAIR to the next program, and keep mending your body.
It is a nice program, in and of itself. I learned so much that I'd not expected to learn. (This is an understatement!)... If you really follow Leigh's macros, you won't really gain any fat, just a bit of water gain at the end. So why not just begin, set up a log over in the training section, really give up resistance and follow the program as written, and perhaps even, enjoy it! And then 4-6 weeks into the program, you'll better know what you want to do at the end of the 8 weeks. And you'll still have time to do deficit before the holidays!
As has been written here, it takes a long time to reset your body functions. I do not think I reset any functions in 8 weeks, but I gained so many tools... So no rush necessary to get back into deficit...
