You're lucky, normal build. I was pushing 6' and 132.

Only three weeks? Pretty good. You might notice bigger
changes as things recover.

What kind of training are you aiming for? I am finding that
at this age it is easy to overtrain. I try for every other
day at most, and have many 2 day rests. This allows for much
faster workouts on the days I do run. Quality over quantity.
I think this would probably have been better when I was
younger too, had a lot of injuries from overtraining.

 Generally on my running days I avoid much carb, except
incidental ones in the breakfast veggies, or in some
berries. Meat, eggs, and mixed fats an hour or two before
the run.

Today and last night I tried increasing carbs and decreasing
protein, mainly by eating more fruit. These days the sugar
in one banana is enough to make me feel overloaded and
heavy, but I am persevering in the name of "science" ;--)
Tomorrow I will have a high carb low protein breakfast, then
try a run. Oh, fat is still fairly high.



Anyway,
