Week 50 Diet, Week 32 Cut
Unfortunately, it looks like my 1400 calorie diet has morphed involuntarily to a 1600 calorie one. Fortunately, it appears that my TDEE is on the rise and I lose >1lb a week anyway.
It is definitely the case that my dieting discipline isn't what it once was. There are a couple of reasons for this. One, I've been having more demands in my social life lately, and often food comes with this. I still generally eat sensibly when I go out, but the act of going out results invariably in me eating more average calories. Second, I am hungrier all the time. Where I was previously capable of having a 400-500 calorie meal and being satiated for five hours, now I'm hungry again after three. I'm guessing that the overall increase in my activity level and my increased leanness are both playing a role here.
For the remainder of the cut, I'm still going to aim for 1400 calorie days, but not gonna sweat the ones that get away from me and drag the average up to 1600.
