Hello. For the last 7 weeks I've managed to control my calorie intake and have it at around 16-1800 per day.
I try and not eat until about 10am which I find pretty easy. I have about 200 calories either having some muesli/breakfast biscuits
I have 2/3 pieces of fruit between breakfast and lunch (I have lunch around 1pm) which is usually some soup with some low fat crackers.
Between lunch and dinner I'll have a couple more bits of fruit. Dinner is usually about 5/6pm and is usually a pasta meal/fish/meat or whatever. I'll have something small before I go to bed provided I don't fall asleep on the couch.
I don't focus much on what I eat as such, I focus 100% on sticking below 2000 calories everyday. I find it pretty easy and am rarely hungry. If I am ill just have some water, but there generally isn't long between snacks/meals so it isn't a problem.
So far it's working well, I feel much better, have definitely lost some belly fat (clothes fitting much better for example) and have lost around 7 pounds (been at it for approaching 7 weeks, so around 1 pound per week)
I've also been doing exercise everyday (sometimes a quick 10/15 minutes of kettle bell lifting, when I have more time I combine this with about 20 mins on an exercise bike.
That's the story so far. Hopefully I'll keep it going but my main concern is that once I have a big meal (date night with my wife for example) I'll just lose focus and motivation and stop then find it very hard to get back into this new lifestyle.
I don't particularly enjoy exercise, I dread it to be honest but have managed to keep it going so far. I suffer badly with exertion headaches so can't push it too far anyway.
Any thoughts, tips or general input would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry, I should just say, I don't have any particular weight loss goals, just better health and an improvement in appearance really.
