    I "more or less" eat the same things, or variations of the same main ingredients, so I basically started counting calories for like 3 or 4 weeks, took some notes and then kept tracking them approximately for what I learnt when I counted them. probably some days I would go over 100, or 100 less, but overall it worked pretty well

    In the beginning, it's good to track your calories since you don't have a good feel for when you're hungry and when you're full. Once you understand your hunger cues, you can stop tracking and follow what your body is telling you, when to stop eating, when to drink some water, etc.

    You can drink and loose weight just fine. After a divorce my wife took almost everything but a few pans and a juicer she hated I dropped 50 pounds in about two months living on vodka, cigarettes (about a half gallon a week) mixed grapefruit, green juice and other fresh fruit juice and steak tacos at night sometimes I would skip the tacos but got nice and lean and healthy skin. I felt great It was like a juice fast but one that doesn’t suck. Every body would ask me how my skin was looking so good. Best way to get through a juice fast. Of course there were down sides lucky my wife took the only car we had as well so I bought a Walmart bike or would run to work it was about 2 miles sucked when it was raining but all in all a very humbling and positive experience. I kept that diet up for almost three years and got bored with it kept the weight off the whole time.

That’s all I ate but I hope it don’t bother my progress since I still walked for 2hrs(10-13k steps) and I use my dumbbell a lot. I’m gonna try to do better again in the morning to eat about 1800-2300 range. But I think what I ate today had to be no more than 3k cal at most and my actual maintenance is 4600cal.

    The reason why people eat when they get home and many do not get hungry until they're in bed it is because that person is so damn busy with their life that they cannot hear the body saying it's hungry!
    Many are desensitized or depend on the time set, they depend on someone to remind them or someone to tell them it's time to eat! All because they cannot hear the body speak so when they finally get in their bed and the racing thoughts and all the energy from the world slows down the person can finally hear their bodies speak and it's saying Feed me I've been trying to tell you I'm hungry now get up and get me something to eat!
