i noticed my weight wasn't changing even with OMAD... so I pretty much need to focus on calories now since I'm clearly getting too many or at least hitting my maintenaince calories every day.

calorie counting sounds like not living lol

I’ve started skipping breakfast and trying to eat most food at lunchtime, less at dinner time šŸ¤žšŸ½

I only eat once a day and haven’t seen much progress. I’ve determined the alcohol and restaurant food is just way too many calories, but i don’t really know. Knowing for sure you’re in deficit just seems more reliable.

Seed oils and other forever chemicals are where I’d look next.

Tried this sugar diet thing going around. Can confirm, losing 1-2 lbs a day and eating as much of fruit, fruit juice, honey, etc as I want. On straight sugar day losing 2 lbs. when I eat a lean meat dinner, losing about 1 lb. You’ll be in a deficit for sure but don’t feel like you’re fasting. And yes, alcohol wipes away days of progress.

I used to live on junk food and alcohol in my teens and 20s - zero weight gain lol

after 30s and 40s: almost zero alcohol and dad belly appears

When I was on the heavier side several years ago, I ate spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, and grilled chicken breast (veggie heavy, less meat) with no dressing, every meal two meals a day for like three months straight and lost like 15-20 lbs. Calorie deficit is definitely the way to go. YMMV.
