congrats on the new low! excited to see if this'll keep working and maybe get you past 200lbs.
i still wonder if there's a better way to refeed that doesn't spike your (water) weight like your current strategy has been: imagine if you could just keep that constant downwards slope for months on end…
Congratulations, and using my Dad voice let me tell you "please do some resistance training, with fat loss there is also some muscle loss".
I have been reading your most recent posts, and at the end of the day, what you seem to be doing now is the oldest axiom in the playbook: "eat less" without being hungry or feeling that you need to eat more.
If I read you correctly, since eliminating the tomato sauce and controlling the beef portion, plus the apple cider vinegar supplementation, your appetite has declined so the cream portion has gone down.
Under this scenario, fat stores should shrink, until homeostasis kicks in again at the food intake level you can sustain without starving or filling hungry. And it does look like certain food groups affects your weight loss, which is what I experienced way back then.
I started wondering about histamine, which is present in tomato and cocoa, and can be present in mushrooms. But, based on the limited amount of published research it seems to be a weight loss enhancer not a weight gain risk factor...
Super stuff . Great to read about the weight loss and that you feeling good. Interesting regarding mushrooms. I always thought they were ‘a nothing’ kind of thing. Seems these flavour enhancers, even if natural, can affect us in strange ways. Looking forward to reading about the next experiment.

Congrats again!

When you removed the sauce, did you remove all vegetables as well?
