I got halfway to the intake goal just by cutting out my daily after-work beer. The rest was just portion size control, especially with carbs. I was still able to eat all the things I enjoy, I just ate a little less of them, and never had craving issues. I've stagnated around 185 mostly because I relaxed a bit on the portion control. I'm slowly trying to get down to 180. My 2002-2004 race weight was 160-163. I have no interest in being that lean at this point in my life.
