I've been watching a lot of David Goggins videos lately. I just love his mentality and mental toughness and am trying to embrace it more in not only my health but in every aspect of my life.

i was consistent with my 10lb loss for the whole month, then Mcdonald's released that new stroopwafel mcflurry and it all went downhill. Still I'm not gonna be guilty about it and i'll start with a healthy choice today.
update: i went to mcdonalds .. i'll try again for dinner

I've been eating a lot more than I should while on this trip, but I've been doing some hard core hiking, too. Not a ton, but a bit.

It is always diet and exercise. That is how weight gain or loss works, always.
Caloric intake vs caloric use.

Rephrasing for asshat compliance...
Did you lose weight by only changing your fucking diet, or are you also going to the fucking gym or something?

Because I am trying to lose weight, and not maintain. I am restricting my caloric intake, simply by eating less. I am eating what I always eat.
Because I am trying to lose weight, and not maintain. I am being more active, typically and hour on the treadmill every day on top of my normal daily routine.

Okay, so to paraphrase you to answer my original question...:
"Hello Obsolesce! Thank you so much for asking! To answer your wonderful question, I lost the weight by both changing my diet and exercise! To be more specific on how I changed my diet, I am simply restricting my caloric intake by eating less of what I always eat. As for exercise, I am being more active in addition to hitting the treadmill every day." --paraphrased JB

Haven't hit the checkpoint yet. Still too close to it to feel comfortable either..
But still working on it.

@JaredBusch Nice going. How much water do you drink a day? Aim for like 2800 ml if you arent already.

Calorie counting, and skipping breakfast (and often lunch) and making no effort to "eat with other people."
I've found that eating earlier in the day, and trying to eat when it is convenient for others rather than when it is good for me, are the top factors that derail my weight loss and make it hard for me to eat healthily. If I eat before I'm really hungry, I get hungry all day thinking about food. If I skip the early meals, I never get hungry in the first place (almost never), until late in the day.

Yeah - that has positives and negatives... a single time per day blood sugar spike isn't considered healthy by many - I'm not saying they are right or wrong... only providing 'their' opinion.
Currently I'm 6 meals a day. First week, lost 2 lbs and gained .6 lbs muscle (I am working out 6 days a week too)
