Thank you dear people!
Yesterday I was thinking a lot about my weight loss plan, reading this forum, and thinking about the stuff you wrote here.
SO I came up with a plan which I really believe I can stick to.
1. I'm going to try very small feeding window, like 2 or 3 hours, so that's basically going to be an OMAD approach. I have chosen this because it could be beneficial for my schedule as well - I usually have lot to do and think about during the day, and it's easier for me when I don't have to plan all the meals at the same time. Also this goes well with my natural rythm, I'm usually less hungry in the morning and hungrier in the late afternoon/evening. So my meal will probably be somewhere between 3am and 7am. I even downloaded and app for that so I think it's going to be helpful.
2. I plan to eat healthy home made food, but I will probably not going to make a drama if I eat something outside on some days. I plan to stick to some form of protein (meat, fish, eggs, cheese, chickpea, lentil, etc) combined with veggies of all sorts and salads, and even some good carbs (rice, potato, quinoa) and good fats. Some days will probably be more carby, other I'm gonna try have more protein-fat combination. I come up with that idea because I can still enjoy cooking and having home made local dishes which I like the most.
I plan to avoid all my trigger foods like bread, sweets as much as I can, or I can get a small amount of it (small pastry or small chocholate). I'm also gonna google for some keto/fitness desserts with cottage cheese, raw cocoa, fruits, whey powder and etc.
3. I'm considering tracking calories of that one meal, but I don't think I'll do that right away, because I want to start slowly, to not feel overwhelmed. Eventually it will be a good addition to my process.
4. I'm gonna try to go to bed earlier. Not only because of benefits of sleep itself, but because of my late night tends to snack. I believe that hitting the bed at 10pm could really save me from those behaviours. I also have lot of books to read so that can be useful for my brain as well.
5. I'm planning to continue with supplements which I'm already taking (C, D, zinc, magnesium, omega 3, etc) to make sure I get every micronutrient I need daily.
6. I will continue to do dance workouts at home and working out with barbells. Eventually I'm planning to hit the gym again but right now that's not possible. Also, I will try to implement some outdoor cardio on daily basis, like fast walking or light hiking. If that's not gonna be possible I will do some YT cardio at home.
7. I'm planning to try to get used to sitting at home and not feel the need to eat all the time. I created some weird associoations where I feel like i HAVE to eat all the time when I'm at home. That shit needs to change. I'll try to work on some other stuff which I can link to being at home, like hobbies and workouts. I came up with that because I can't run out every time I feel the urge to eat - it works sometimes, but it's not a solution. I will probably spend lot of time at home in the future for various reasons and I don't want to pile up any more pounds because of that.
8. I will be really happy and grateful for EVERY kg i lose. Really, this time I owe that to myself!
9. I'll try to write here as much as I can. I already see how that activity distracts me from eating and that's a good thing.
10. I'm planning to find solution for life - so some approach that I can stick to till the end. I believe some sort of one meal a day could be something which doesn't seem so hard to do. I can plan my life around it easily and I'm free of thinking how and when I need to it 3-5 times a day. Also fasting seem benefitial by itself so that's a nother good thing.
That would be it, I will eventually put some numbers in my signature
