Kind of stumped...

The supper and booze intake jump out straight away from a food/drink perspective. I would cut both completely, or if you don't want to cut the booze, significantly reduce it.

Stop counting the calories burned, they're usually way out, easier just to use that as a bonus and focus on your intake, the food doesn't look bad but that's a lot of meals, it also reads like a lot more than 1500 calories start weighing the food to get a gauge on portions, also the 6 Cans (or more), that's huge, sorry but it is, cut that down, it'll kill progress, my 2c.

Yo-yo effect is a complete pita, structure and discipline are the only things to defeat it.

I like how they grey out the ignore list now... Anyway, it is calories in v calories out ultimately. fwiw I wouldn't be anti beers (probably anti-coors), as changes have to be sustainable. I do find maintenance easier if I only drink one night, although I've found my food choices around drink effect my weight more than beer.

I'd suggest at least tracking and weighing for a while to get a handle on portions. I find corn cakes/ rice cakes quite addictive, and can rattle up the calories fairly quick personally!

The fitness chef has a new book out - I haven't this book, but have others, and he's very good on sustainable changes.

Your diet sounds a bit miserable, tbh, and I say that as someone who loves salad. You could eat an equivalent (or lower) amount of calories in a much, much more satisfying way if you learned to cook properly.

I'm 40, 5' 7" and 10 stone. My maintenance calories are 1,200 so I need to box clever with them. I eat twice a day (lunch and dinner) as it's just my natural eating pattern, and I never feel hungry between meals. I know I'm an outlier in this regard, but I 100% believe that snacking is a habit. Eat more/better at mealtimes and you shouldn't really feel the need to eat between them.

Lunch for me is generally a salad with lots of protein - poached egg/halloumi/black pudding/chicken/tuna. Sometimes nuts. Always mixed leaves because there's nothing more boring than a mono-leaf salad. Onions/peppers/carrots for crunch and colour. Fresh herbs, always. I don't like oily or creamy salad dressings so generally squeeze a wedge of lime over, it lifts everything right up.

Two-egg omelette are also a great option.

Dinner is always cooked from scratch. Curries, casseroles, tagines, chillies. Steak. Venison. Stuffed courgettes. More salads (I do really love salad). Lamb skewers. I love my carbs and have some with pretty much all dinners, but I always weigh them because it's very easy to overeat them.

I love my wine and have a glass or two with dinner most nights. I'm very lucky to not have a sweet tooth, though, and have no interest in crisps, popcorn etc. either.

I think if you can find a few recipes for dinners that satisfy you more (without adding calories), you'll be much happier. I also 100% find that the longer something takes to eat, the greater its satiety. Also, eat mindfully. Set the table, sit down properly and really enjoy your food. No TV, no tablets, no phones while eating. Use a knife and fork and put them down between each mouthful. It really, really makes a difference.

When were your weigh ins?

A week is probably too small a period to be obsessing over, what you're doing looks fine.

If you're logging correctly and in a deficit then just zoom out a little, any external forces can throw the scales off at the wrong time.

I was + 5lbs Monday over my usual weight after we had guests over the weekend, we had salty food and a few cans both nights, I retained a lot of fluid until Tuesday where it went back down.

Basically what I'm saying is spot checking is not that accurate, aim for 2lbs a month loss and you should see more progress

If you can thou, I'd probably cut the booze to 1 night, that will really help, and prep breakfast and dinner for the following day beforehand.

You are eating way too much, which is the reason everyone is overweight.

You have to imagine eating less, which means when you eat you eat smaller amounts AND less eating sessions per day. How else could you eat less than thinking of it that way.

You don't need to eat anywhere near the amount of food you are eating per day. If you understand that you'll have it solved. Aim to eat 50% of the volume of food you usually eat. In reality you'll get to say 65%, which is just about right.

edit: once you get used to eating less your sense of hunger and how much your body expects to eat goes down as well. So no, you won't feel 'starved' for eating less.

For most people, most of the time it's calories in v calories out. In my n=1, I had to start weighing food, as invariably my guestimates were way off. And they still can be - a handful of nuts could be 15g or 25g - not a problem in off itself, but it can add up over a day. Notwithstanding that, (Again n=1) to your more substantive point, if I don't eat enough during the day, I'm more likely to binge in the evening.
