sounds good, working well? I am not that good with the numbers for myself, yet have managed special diets for others over the years. ie diabetics, low sodium and such, just can't sort myself I work out a few meals that are low cal, then through my own laziness have to stick with them.
@Rugglesby My calorie counts are estimates using nutrition data on the net. I'm not careful measuring amounts, but they're within 25%. I'm measuring how much I weigh with best accuracy, and monitoring daily how I feel. Any amount of calories less tan 1200 is stupendous. Since I started a calorie restricted diet, I've eaten 1100 calories only once IIRC; other days have been under 1000 and sometimes under 500.
I'd heard about this phenomenon, but thought it wouldn't work on me. I struggled with dieting all my life. I am stunned at how effective eating the right foods is to one's weight and health. It works. I just posted a link to a Dr. Greger video.
@Rugglesby As a baby, you liked milk. Then, your parents started giving you other food, and you learned to like it. You can train yourself to like other foods, just by eating them. Anyone can do it, and it is rather easy; discipline isn't important, unless you mean the discipline to try again after failing. I think patience is more important that discipline. Changing your life doesn't happen overnight.

Posted by OldMetalHeadThe hardest part for me is not falling back into old bad habits after meeting goals.

Posted by JonnaBononnaI had finally gotten back on track after gaining back most of the weight I lost a couple of years ago.
Posted by JurneeI have to say, as an overweight karate instructor, this is the one patch that I was ok with never getting.

Posted by DotLewis7 March 2020 - Diet Diary - Been quiet around here lately. I've not been on vacation, just keeping a low profile and trying to stay on top of things. Are those things incompatible?
