Halfway there - it’s boring here…

I am down 30lbs and have 30 to 35 more to go. I’ve been at it since May. I have no complaints about my progress (apart from hair shedding, which is starting to slow down ๐Ÿ˜…). I’m continuing to lose ~ 1lb/week eating 1600-1700 calories, lots of protein. Stuff I’d do if I weren’t trying to lose weight, yanno?

I’m just feeling so antsy. I don’t know how else to describe it. Past me would be like “oh! Let’s shake things up and go vegan for a month!” or something similar (and unnecessary).

I know I have the best chance of maintaining post-weight loss by continuing to plug away at these very boring, normal, moderate little habits. Making them as automatic as possible.

But there’s a tiny piece of me that keeps thinking “is that all there is?” And it’s… boring. It’s not a matter of being motivated or even will power. It’s more a matter of it just not being exciting.

I realize not everyone can relate. And that’s okay. And I do meet with an RD who also counsels me on all my diet noise/habits.

From those who have also experienced this and survived the “middle period blahs,” what did you do or tell yourself to avoid sabotaging your progress?
