    I've swum the last 3 nights I think. It's been fun except last night I lost my goggles and it was very hard to swim without them. I ended up buying new swim goggles. I've also done omad the last 3 days, but I'm not today for 2 good reasons: today is Bagel Thursday and my work will be doing a...

    I did go swimming last night and it was really fun! It's the first physical activity I've gotten in quite a while, but I did have enough energy for it. I had Subway's for dinner because I was running errands beforehand so I didn't have time to go home and make something cheaper (and...

    I am happy to be back here. I am back to fasting and it's not too hard. Some days the mentality of not eating during the day (because I have my omad at night, for dinner) is more difficult than physically doing it. I think it'll eventually become a habit. I am going to try to eat healther...

    What Motivates You To OMAD?

    My motivation is also to lose weight. But I also like how I feel most of the time when I fast. Also, since my job is so sedentary, I don't think I need to eat a lot anyways, so omad fits perfectly for my lifestyle. I'm excited to start wearing smaller clothes and regain my better body shape...

    I haven't done well at all with omad but the one thing I have done well is stopped my spending on restaurants. I've definitely slowed the spending on them and have worked harder to eat grocery foods rather than restaurant foods. Not perfect, but definitely better. I've had a rough couple of...

    Thanks for the advice. I'm trying to adjust to a good mindset so I get back to omad when I hit hurdles, but I haven't been able to recently. I'm here to write some more, get inspiration and encouragement as I try to get back to it, so I appreciate your stopping by. :)

    Hi again. I have been doing omad but sometimes I fail and I wanted to come back here and report success! So I haven't written in a while because no sooner do I get a few days under my belt of omad but then Bagel Thursday happens and it seems to ruin me through Friday at least or sometimes the...

    Hello again. I haven't been the best but in my mind I've been thinking about getting back to omad eating. I think I'll be able to this week. I haven't even purchased lunches for the week because I want to make sure I stick to omad. It's much easier for me to do omad during the weekdays...

    Thanks for visiting. I love when my meals are colorful and tasty. @Vegomad you meal sounds good! Hope you enjoy your time in Hawaii, @Happyflowerlady. I have had a crazy schedule lately where I've been missing sleep and events after work that make it hard to keep to my same routine. I've...

    Yesterday I had lunch at work because we were celebrating a new client. I was busy and couldn't eat my lunch right away and then it wasn't that great when I finally got to eat it. I also had dinner but did not pig out. Today I'm back on omad and I'm relieved. It's much easier now for me and...

    That's good you are feeling good @Vegomad. As @Happyflowerlady said, welcome! I had another weekend where I did not eat omad. I ate 2 or 3mad because of social obligations and traveling (not easy access to tea, etc.). Actually Friday was a very stressful day at work and I ended up ordering a...

    I didn't do omad on the weekend because I had plans with friends and family. I'm back to omad on the weekdays. Now my work knows I'm fasting. It's a small office so they all know. Unfortunately I couldn't partake in the cupcakes for an employee's last day. Too bad. I would've liked to try...
