I've run 5K a day for the past five days. Now that it is part of my daily routine, I plan to keep it up and hope to slowly increase it. I've stuck with the same diet I've had from the beginning but I'm finding I'm hungrier more often, I'm never satisfied for very long, I get the shakes more and more, and it is a struggle to stay at 1800 calories. I often go over by 100-300 calories. They are all relatively good calories (mostly fruits/veggies, nuts/meat, and yogurt) but those couple hundred a day add up to about a pound in one week's time. No wonder I've hit a plateau! But, on the other hand, i can't push myself harder at workouts and then decrease my caloric intake to the point I'm dizzy and shaky. Gotta evaluate and find a good balance. What's been working isn't as effective any more. Gotta switch it up!
