They make some surprisingly good craft light beers now. One of my favorites is only 98 calories (and this is from someone who considers themselves an insufferable beer snob). Tbh, I hike/exercise while maintaining a deficit solely so I have those extra calories to drink. It has absolutely no effect on weight loss, just…

From personal experience, no. My sample size is a lot smaller than yours (8 weeks or so) but I've eaten, with 3 exceptions, the exact same things every day and haven't had an issue.

...and an opinion I appreciate. I've read so much about weight loss from just about every source I could find and the analytical corner of my brain went into overdrive and crunched everything to exact science. Now the results don't match the match and it's making me crazy. I think you're right...I need to accept averages…

Ok, more accurately I should say I'm not INTENTIONALLY creating that much of a deficit. At the end of the day, MFP usually shows me with roughly 200-300 calories remaining to my goal (with exercise factored in). 90% of what I'm eating has calorie content right on the label so I find it hard to believe I'm underestimating…

My body fat was up in that realm when I started this but now, not as much. Looking back on my food diary I'm eating between 1400-1600 every day. I guess I don't understand WHY I'm losing that quickly. I'm trying to maintain between 2-3lb, closer to 2 nowadays. I'm not creating nearly enough of a deficit to be losing at…

Oh certainly not! Hence the rotating dinner thing. It's going to be a portion control thing more than anything when the time comes.

You'd be amazed at how much protein you can cram into 1400 calories! That said, I hadn't considered the loose skin issue.

I'm kinda just making this up as I go. I've determined I can consistently and comfortably lose weight so I'm going to do it till I like how I look and feel and call it good.

What specifically do you mean by sustainable?

I'm 27. Looking at it just now I see the exact same 2nd week flatline and then it starts falling again. I have it set to lose 2/week though I try to end with a calorie surplus as long as I feel satiated. I don't have a specific goal, probably in the neighborhood of 185 but I'm doing it more on how I look, feel, and how…
