    Pickle pops! Now I think that is going a bit too far! I think my wife might be a candidate though.

    I think those pops would eat a person's teeth away!

    would fasting a bit more in this state that you are in help actually heal you better/faster? seeing that fasting is a healing tool? have you considered it or else you are ripping the benefits of your fasting window?

    How do you know nothing is happening? I don't know what is best for getting better fasting or not. I do know I'm on antibiotics and I need to take them with food so I'm not totally fasting right now. Yesterday, I ate a little bit of sunflower seeds to take my antibiotics but only the pickle juice after.

    Walked 1.4-miles today and that was about all I felt like doing. Still on the mend but getting better!

    Met my running goal (break 29-min in 5k) but didn't get weight goal (lose 4-lbs). I actually gained 1-lb. Next month will hopefully be better. I think if I wouldn't have gotten sick and if I delt with scout camp better, I could have come close on the weight and I would probably have broken 28-min for the 5k. Next month!

    There's always next month! Gotta take it easy when you're sick, for sure...

    I actually think I did pretty good. I probably did OMAD maybe less than 10-times and managed to only go up 1-lb and didn't workout for more than a week so for me that shows maintenance is possible!

    Maintenance is always what worries me the most, so that's great news.

    I'm glad you are on the mend and it's darn awesome you met your running goal despite not feeling 100%! Bob, I've said it before, but I'm so thankful you and others post about your maintenance because your stories inspire others. You're right, a one pound gain is nothing, and especially considering you were sick. :)

    For being sick and on antibiotics I'd say you did pretty darn good!!! :)

    @blambo61 I have been taking acv for years on an empty stomach and I am alive and pretty healthy except my weight. Never sick. So I am assuming nothing "bad" happens when you take it dilluted in water. that´s what I meant how do I know? empiric experience!

    That is one data point which is encouraging. Each person is different though and also I'm sure it matters how much you take.

    Well I'm still a little sick and hacking up green stuff from the lungs still. Got some new antibiotics today to see if it will help. I'm missing a hike with the scouts tomorrow that we had planned all year. Mt. Timpanogos in the Wasatch Mts in Utah, US. The summit is 11,752 ft high (3582m). The hike is about 14-miles (22.5km) round-trip with an elevation gain of 4,390ft (1338m). Starting elevation is 7360ft (2243m). I'm super bummed about that but can't do anything about it. I will just need to get better and will get other opportunities in the future. Have a good one all.
