This Behaviour is depreciated and no longer supported (https://github.com/jrbasso/MeioUpload) but I had the same problem and have no need to migrate yet.

For anyone in the same boat as me, you can fix it as follows:

• Open Model/Behavior/MeioUploadBehavior.php

• Look for this block of code which appears TWICE:

  // If the file is an image, try to make the thumbnails
  if ((count($options['thumbsizes']) > 0) && count($options['allowedExt']) > 0 && in_array($data[$model->alias][$fieldName]['type'], $this->_imageTypes)) {
      $this->_createThumbnails($model, $data, $fieldName, $saveAs, $ext, $options);
  }
  

• After the SECOND occurrence insert the following code (which does appear already under the first occurence):

  if ($options['removeOriginal']) {
     $this->_removeOriginal($saveAs);
  }
  

I did this in my project and seems to be working just fine so far!
