Serious congratulations on what you've accomplished! I can see you're devoted to this, and I'm impressed by the results.
I've never had a worrying weight problem, but as I get older it's clear that I can't eat like a kid any more. One misjudged meal and I'll be groggy for a whole day. So a lot of what you say here is applicable to my situation as well. I've done minimal meals, especially in the evening, and may get brave and try a limited-time fast, just to see how it goes.
I'm looking forward to applying this.
(One embarrassing thing that happened: I made a language mistake when telling my doctor about my condition. In Japanese "acid reflux" is "gyaku-ryu-sei". But "foreign exchange student" is "ryu-gaku-sei." Same syllables, different order, and I mixed them up. So my doc was confused when I told him that when I lie down I have trouble with foreign exchange students.)
