March body check. Now that I'm no longer weighing myself, my body/self awareness is coming from three things: 1. My physical performance (strength/speed); 2. How my clothes are fitting; and 3. What I look like in the mirror. I don't like using mirrors for the actual body checks, because it's easy to focus in on one little thing at a time until you go nuts.
So instead I'm taking mirror shots and giving them a neutral, gentle glance once a month. This month I feel pretty damn good. I think my "weight" is stabilizing and settling in a very healthy way, aka I'm healthfully hovering at or near my current setpoint. My energy levels are up and my clothes are fitting perfectly. I'm seeing great upper body gains in the weightroom, and my appetite seems normal and healthy. No all-out binges (just some nighttime munchies then and again) and not feeling any emotional imperative to restrict.
The best thing about all this is that my body is doing exactly what I've wanted it to do for the longest time, except it's only doing it now that I stopped trying to force it into that place with exercise and measuring and weighing and hyper-regulating my diet. For example, the more I tried to keep my midsection "lean" by putting restrictions on what I ate, the puffier my belly and sides would get, just from how unnatural my "habits" were. Now I'm eating normally to my hunger cues and listening to myself, and that's probably the flattest belly and slimmest waist I've ever had in my life. (Which is pretty funny because I could no longer give a fraction of a shit about those appearance-based things...)
Looking honestly at my intake, I'm probably ranging anywhere from 2500-3000+ calories daily. I'm making better progress "overeating" (LOLOL) than I ever was "eating for fat loss". My body is hella fueled and it is burning hot! Love this.
