I have been moving very slow in achieving my weight goal. I am still exercising, running and eating vegetables. For a while it seemed like I hit a wall or a plateau. I had to re-examine what I was eating and or drinking and decided to stop drinking beer or wine for a week and see if that would help. It did help. I am going back to losing 2 lbs per week and I feel good. I still have energy to go running or lifting weights. I eat mostly when I get hungry which usually happens around 3 pm every afternoon. Late at night I may have a couple of tea or a glass of water and that keeps me through the night. I drink black coffee early in the morning and then I either go to work or exercise for one hour, another hour running and walking uphill, 30 minutes in the sun and around 3pm lunch.
I believe that I could reduce my meal portion and in fact I believe that my stomach is asking for it. Yesterday and today as well I felt satisfied with half my regular portion of vegetables and protein. I think my body is adapting to less calories or at least less amount of food.
In order to make it interesting, I am eating different vegetables, different proteins and I have integrated Chia seeds and blue berries into the mix. My digestion is working pretty good, my energy levels are pretty good as well and going to bed at 10 pm is not a problem any more. I do have to manage to sleep 8 hours straight but one step at a time I guess.
All in all, everything is going good. It can be improved and I am sure I will find a way to improve my workouts and nutrition but so far everything is moving, slowly but surely.
