Mid diet crisis

Actually there is no crisis at all but I had to have some kind of title. 60 days in I'd say its going real well. I think the no treats thing works well for me, and I've been eating about 2000 cals a day about 6 days a week and maybe 2500 once per week. And also no alcohol. However I plan on screwing this up around day 90 or so because I'm going to a wedding and it would be obnoxious not to eat cake and get drunk. Besides that though I get the feeling I'd keep the style of eating the same indefinitely. I never really crave any junk. Besides maybe diet soda. I do sometimes want a beer or whiskey but never for to long. I've been in a bottle before and I'll prolly get in some more soon enough anyway. Never crave red meat either. Been cooking salmon and chicken alot more now and enjoying that. I've been getting into a routine with eating that I like. Good food, and very economical. Breakfast will have a bannana, and oatmeal, and somedays also a protein shake. ( 1 scoop). I eat the bannana and drink a glass of water as I wait for the water to boil for the oatmeal. Its pretty much always worth the wait to have warm food i've found. I've tried to pretty much quit cold cerial. At some point in the day I will have a fiber one bar (30 for 8$) and a yogurt (about 50c) (maybe ill even mix some ground flax seed in for the ultimate jive and tasty healthy treat) . at the gym in my bottle I got 95% water and 5% fruit juice. Just enough flavor. Most days I will cook some fish or chicken at some point in the day. Sometimes scrambled eggs with random spices. A few large spoonfuls of 2% cottage cheese I get for about 5$ per 1.3kg before sleeping. V8 juice when disired. I got some wraps I can put either field greens/romaine in, sometimes egg or chicken. If you get the right wraps you can do really well, I've found some that have 9g protien, 20 carbs, 6 fiber, total 100cals and they taste great. yadda yadda
