Finally learned the magic of what calorie counting can truly do.

I am M22, and I have been overweight pretty much since 2nd grade. And at my peak, I was 405 pounds. And ever since I became an adult, I have been trying and unsuccessfully losing weight. But 6 months ago, I learned I had a hunger disorder that makes me hungry at all times. Which was a major eye opener into how my body works. And for a long time, I tried calorie counting and eating healthy, but I got discouraged because no matter how much food I would eat, I would still be super hungry. But 3 months ago, I got a job that has me constantly on my feet and walking around. 3 days a week, I am walking an average of 7 miles over a 8.5 hour shift, and 5 miles on my 4.5 hour shift. And lastly, I learned 2 months ago on how to actually calorie count in a way that works for me. To lose weight, I should eat roughly 2800 calories a day, but I have been making 2 large meals a day rather than multiple small meals, and I am making kinda whatever I damn well want. If it is just simply calories in and calories out, I may as well eat whatever I want. And since than, I have been much happier eating food, and knowing I am going to be hungry at the end is such a nice thing. And over the last 2 months, I am down to 368. The lowest I've been since middle school. And I am feeling very good about myself, even if I am eating junk. Could I be losing weight faster, and be satisfied about being healthy? Yes, can I sustain that? Absolutely not. What really did it for me was I recently went on a hike with some friends. It was a shorter hike than they are used too, but I kept up the entire time, and by the end, I was just sore. Not in proper pain, and by the morning, I was at work again, feeling perfectly fine.
