Bravo! Way too many folks overthink all of this and flood the internet with pointless over-analysis.

I likewise just eat lots of veggies, salads, no junkfood (and yeah, we all know what "junkfood" is, this is another thing that gets over-analyzed), no alcohol. No "off days" - this is your life now, not something you pick up and put down.

I run minimum 12 miles a day, most days 14. I also do basic strength training but nothing crazy. But I exercise every day, no exceptions.

I don't overthink equipment, stats, data, or anything else. I wear a smartwatch but I could go without it.

I went from 181 to 148 pounds at 53 years old.

Smiles Brother Phil, looking good sir! I feel ya and the advice is truly excellent. I myself eat generally in the afternoon as well. The nice thing I have found since changing my eating habits and structure is that I am never full, but always satisfied and tastes so much better. also now, I like certain vegetables that never appealed to me. much love from PRX2

I do many of the same things. I’m 71 years old, 5’ 11”, weigh 175 pounds and fortunately never had a weight problem. I eat healthy and do drink alcohol sometimes. Have no heart or blood pressure problems and no medications. I have always exercised, still do, and in recent years learned and practiced Krav Maga, and just joined a F45 gym.

Great post

btw, I swapped out NaCl this year for KCl [to lower my bp]: it works

I was surprised to note that after a few weeks my appetite was suppressed [I still fixed the same amount of food for dinner, but stopped halfway through because I wasn't hungry]

I've lost 6 kg [13.2 lb].

Cheers, Phil
