    Haha @ jade pearl - roast pork is where my 50% Chinese and 50% English heritage intersect and both parts claim ownership.

    @volgirl and @LiLee thanks for dropping in. Yes, that roast pork poin will last me four days of meals on the OMAD diet. Day 2, made wraps with lower carb wraps; Day 3 add some apple cider vinegar with Vietnamese sriracha chilli sauce to make instant sweet and sour pork etc.

    @misty well, I grew a few plants and these two heads were sufficient to eat but it’s not really worth it because they grow so slowly and are so small but hey, I did it!

    Learning to limit portion size to one bowl and to balance my macros. I like being able to include carbs in my one meal a day. I generally fast 23 hours and eat for one hour. Lost 3 kg in first two weeks but now weight loss has slowed.

    That looks yummy :) You really have a green thumb...amazing :+1: I can't live without carbs.. :lol: How much more to your GW? The closer you are, the hard it will be. Hang in there as you are doing great :+1:

    @jade pearl Thanks so much for your encouraging words. I do love eating well that’s for sure. So OMAD works well for me because I like the idea of a really good feed at least once a day. I have lost 3 kg and am already looking trimmer. I have 6kg to go and would love to get there before 2020 in eight weeks.

    Isn't it fantastic when you can see with your own eyes that you are slimmer? Let's loose these last few kgs together before 2020 comes👍😁

    @jadepearl Yes would be great to get to target by 2020. Let’s do it!

    @volgirl Isn’t it wonderful to enjoy our one meal a day with all the trimmings and to know that we can still control our weight.

    @mistymeadows Well, we all have our special indulgences. But since going OMAD I have gradually reduced my consumption of several favourites; I’m now consuming less chocolate, red wine and beer. ☺️👍😋

    NICEEEEEEEEEEEE - the wine will kill my numbers but liquor seems to give me a nice "cleaning out" so I don't mind indulging in that on occasion...I just re-ordered SF gummy bears so that'll get me away from the chocolate for a while at least LMAO :D
