Confession: I'm terrified of stopping dieting. I've shaken out from 93.5kg at the start of the year back to 80kg now, which is a much better size for me. I've actually done it really painlessly through a small consistent breakfast, huel for lunch and then a 'normal' dinner of 6-1000 calories leaving me at 15-1800 calories a day, good for a 500ish deficit, more if I exercise.
So far so good.. I'm a very habitual/impulsive eater so getting into a diet routine which psychologically worked was really transformative. I'm very concerned that once I start giving myself an inch (as I've very much earned the right to!) I will start taking a mile, and end up right back where I started. I don't really even crave junk/snacks at the moment, but I do know how hard it is to stop once I start..
Any advice beyond regular weighing from people who have successfully avoided the dreaded yoyo?
