I realized a number of weeks ago that this time around I am not overly concerned about how much weight I am losing per week as long as it is above 0.5/week on average. I am more worried about breaking the addiction I have to unhealthy foods, and healing my body with good nutritious food.
I know a number of addiction recovery support groups like to use a 90 day, 3 month, baseline for when new habits start to cement in the mind. I am at the 3 month mark now and am noticed a lot of changes happening quickly in the way I think about food. It never really clicked before now that... I had an eating disorder and an addiction to junk food. Now I find myself reaching more and more for things like avocado, celery, tuna, egg, veggies, products with organic ingredients that I can actually pronounce....and I am liking the changes.
I am looking forward to at least another 3-6 months of super clean eating, and I will probably ease up a bit on the calorie and carb restrictions after that. Hopefully this experience changes the way I eat forever.
