Sounds complicated. Why not just go with the standard 5:2 diet, 2 days of either 500 or 600 calories, and 5 days of eating what you want, but mindful eating? It’s not a super fast way of losing (most people average about a lb per week) but it’s dependable. There are lots of people on these forums that have reached their weight goals this way. It feels a lot less like a diet when you don’t restrict food groups. Time restricted dieting, when you’re doing it every day can be tedious, especially with changing work shifts.

Congrats on your loss so far. But can you stick to your regimen for the rest of your life. Because once you go off of it you’ll probably gain the weight back. 5:2 is easy enough to do for maintaining. The 2 days become routine and I have yet to starve to death. 😁 I’ve been down to “skinny jeans” for 9 months maintaining. I eat a little more on NFDs than I did while losing, but I eat whatever I want within reason. I must have been on every diet there is over the years. I lost weight on most but gained it all back and then some when the diet was over. I couldn’t imagine being on them long term. With 5:2 I can. It’s sustainable.

The challenge with asking for help here is that this not a ketogenic forum. Yes there are a few who know what that is, but most of us here do the 5:2 version of Intermittant Fasting. It works.

50lbs in a month, but you don’t say the split and men lose faster than women, but that seems a very unsustainable way to lose weight. You are not learning how to keep your weight off long term.

5:2 gets the weight off without the agony you’rd putting yourself through. Effectively, it’s what we do 2 days a week, and that gets the weight to normal and keeps it there. It works. It’s easy for most people. You can eat whatever works as a healthy diet for you individually. Shiftwork makes no difference.
