    I dropped a little over 20 pounds in six weeks a few years ago at age 44 by severely restricting my diet and continuing to run.

    Running sucked when I was constantly in a calorie deficit. I was running about a minute slower pace than before I started dieting and it felt like I was hammering the whole way.

    I ended up keeping it off until Covid, than I put half of it back on.

    I'm finally starting to look like my former self again, no love handles, or belly fat. What worked for me was to quit drinking which I found difficult. And with that I also made my own lunches which consisted of nuts, vegetables, and lean meats. I break fast around 10:30 and try not to eat anything before bed. Also no pop or sugary drinks. It sucked but now it's completely normal and my baseline. I've been trying to lose that last 10-15 pounds for a few years now.
