I've been eating vegan 5-6 days a week and have never felt better in my life. I'm interested to see if I ever make the leap to being fully vegan, or if I love food too much to give meat up entirely.

Don't really miss dairy at all, which is surprising. Every time I eat it I feel like shit and remind myself to be more careful.

My only thought is might be better to just start at 1500 calories and stay there. If this is a lifestyle/habit change the few additional pounds lost first two weeks probably aren’t worth the stress/shock to system. Good luck whatever you do! Look forward to hearing how it goes.

I use this too.

I have found, however, that keeping a paper and pencil journal is more effective. It makes you really think about everything you consume and educates you on how to read labels.

and my ambition is shot in terms of doing anything about it lol.
I just try to eat fruit/oatmeal / maybe a few slices of summer sausage/cheese/crackers (those lunchable type things) etc...that type of stuff for lunches. Dinners are pretty tame, not a ton of fast food. Don't drink nearly like I used to, maybe a few beers on a random weekend etc. Don't drink soda hardly ever.

despite all this, I've still gained weight over the last year.
really started noticing all this once I turned probably 39. Gonna be 41 in a few months. Last july / august I got really frustrated and ate nothing but GD salads (and I hate salads) and made protein drinks for nearly two months and didn't seem to lose any weight. maybe a few pounds, but nothing noticeable.

You drink a lot of soda and/or beer?

Beer put a lot on for me - so I'm getting away from that too - Going to start tide pods for a buzz, I think.

JK but seriously - I don't HAVE to drink beer. So that's good I suppose.

Here's my typical diet when I'm not drinking beer or out at a restaurant.

80 cal light and fit greek yogurt
Turkey meat/turkey burgers, typically no bun. Make it a lettuce wrap.
Brown rice
Chicken breast (I'll use lemon pepper)
Tilapia (Lemon pepper)
Zero fat cheese
Egg whites
Green peppers
broccoli
frozen fruit that I add with my whey protein mix

And that's pretty close to it. I'm a simple eater.

I try to keep my daily macros around 50 fat, 200 carb, 150 protein

And I keep my cals under 2,000 during the week because I know on the weekends I'm gonna eat and drink whatever I want.

I personally think 1,100 cals is way too low for you SR. It's not going to be very sustainable. But just focus on eating foods that are high volume and low calories.

We’re getting back in shape for Jamaica in June. Lost 25 lbs last year between Valentine’s Day and June 20. Cut my cals back to 2000 of good food and started running everyday. Then after Jamaica I gained 8 back. Now I’m back on the diet and running. My wife has meals delivered to the house. She can choose to have the lower cal meals which she does and it helps out with dinners.

not really.
maybe like 3 cans of soda a week / can with dinner; and usually it's a sugar free variety. though, sometimes I channel my inner RainMan and have a Dr. Pepper.

beer..maybe like 12 beers a month. maybe more here and there, but I can count on 1 hand the times I've bought beer each month. if that makes sense.
