A summer away from home and stress to learn how to properly diet and control myself

Hi all, long time lurker here who finally made an account.

Basically, I just feel really good right now, for the first time in my entire obese life (highest weight 325lbs) I havent stuck with something longer than two weeks. Today marked the fourth week of staying with my chosen weight loss "program", that being intermittent fasting. Starting May 27th, I've been studying in Germany, and I'll be here until the end of August. I've used the time I've already been here getting used to fasting and decreasing my eating window little by little as I get more comfortable. The only other thing I'm doing is CICO. I debated doing keto but it's my belief that the only diet that works is the one that you do forever, and I really love bread, so I'm working on learning how to eat cleanly and building up my discipline and resilience to the foods I crave. Those being fast food like McDonalds for the most part.

Already, I've gone down two holes on my belt loop. I'm so excited that I've got 2 and a half more months of basically being in this bubble, away from all the worries and stresses I have back home. I believe I can quash my cravings to gorge myself on double quarter pounders and drink gallons of coke, build up my willpower to keep from doing those things when I return.

I don't have a scale here, so I won't know what I weigh until I go home, which kind of excites me. When I left I was between 295 and 305, so I have my fingers crossed for big and healthy losses!
