I take vitamin D almost daily and I don't know if it helped (I take other stuff too) but I haven't been sick in a long time which is a miracle for me, especially while trying to run hard.
Bob...it has to be D3....Gosh I sound like I take a lot of stuff but really I don't. I saw such a huge difference in my health, as far as colds and sinus infections, after taking the D3. I don't even take a multiple vitamin but never miss my D3.0 -
It is D3 that I take.0

Thank you for all the concern. I am on the mend, sort of. I am back at work, but exhausted. My steroids are working wonders but also have not helped my diet in the least. I did look into the elderberries, but the doctor said that I should run the course of my current medication first.
I had a cold awhile back, and I think I just never really got over it, and it moved into my lungs. I have to be better, because I leave for a conference in Dallas on Thursday, and won't be back in town until Saturday. I have to be better.
Thanks everyone for checking in on me!1 -
Oh no, that sounds horrible, hope you are better quickly!0

Happy to hear from you and hope for your continued recovery!0

How are you feeling?0

Looks like you had a favorable weigh in recently. I hope you feel better soon.0

Thank you all
Just got back from my business trip. I think I am also over the pneumonia.
I was off plan, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. It was just too exhausting to explain why I was not eating to my 60 coworkers. So I took some splurge time.
I am scared to death to step on the scale, but I will once I have been back on OMAD awhile.
I did enjoy the social aspect of getting to know my coworkers from different offices, drinking and dancing. So I will not regret putting my OMAD to the side. I jumped right back into OMAD on Sunday and it was very hard. I ended up eating during a window of 4 hours.
Today has been a lot easier, and I bet I'll be right back on track tomorrow.0 -
Glad you had a good time at your conference! They are always hard from a food/drink point of view... And happy you're feeling better...0

Glad you're feeling better Sammy. OMAD is hard to get back on but dang it's just too good to pass up, ain't it?0
-
I'm happy that you're feeling better0

Glad to hear you're feeling better. I also take Vit D3 plus calcium and kelp. No idea whether any of them work but I've been recovering very quickly from colds.
I'm still not on strict OMAD as I have been eating outside my OMAD time. It's been too hard but I'm planning to stick to it from today.
Good luck with getting back on track today! I'm sure you can do it.0 -
I am back on track as of yesterday. Feels good. Three days off, is definitely too much. I don't take any vitamins, just because I can't be consistent. It is a personal problem I have always had. I think I have only once in my life taken an antibiotic correctly.
Good Luck on your OMAD @jeanona0 -
Great job getting back on track Sammy. Seems like it's not very challenging for you, good for you! I'm not a very consistent person either with a lot of stuff but man I can't pass up the D3....just is such a blessing!1

you don't have to be consistent with vitamins like you do with antibiotics. I intentionally don't take vitamins a couple days a week to give myself a bread from them. They are just nutrition.0 -
The only thing I've ever managed to take consistently is turmeric and that's only because my hip hurts if I forget to take it and put on sunscreen before I walk the dogs only because sunburn hurts! I can't even moisturise my face at night consistently (gotta start doing that again!!)...0

Thanks @sammygold2015. Good luck with you too!
Regarding vitamins, I am not that consistent either but I do try to remember to take them as often as possible. I probably miss out once a week on average.0 -

I know I am doing better and feeling good, I just don't want to step on the scale. It is kind of liberating, not knowing. I'll weigh next week though. I like where I am at in this process. I know I haven't derailed myself. I had a break, which brought me out of the straight and narrow. Getting out of the routine and then diving back would have been un-thought of in past diet schemes. It would have taken me months to get back to a plan once I feel off.
It is a control issue, and I am feeling confident that this way of life is for me. I may not be losing 2 lbs a week, but I am living the way I want to. Which is super important. I don't miss out of anything.
Have a beautiful weekend!
