    Tough to lose weight while on prednisone. You would be doing well if you managed to maintain.

    Hi guys. Still hanging on here. Still on Prednisone and antibiotics. Eating breakfast and dinner currently until Friday, when the Prednisone stops. Then watch me OMAD!

    Hubby is back home, thankfully, so I've got my partner in crime if something falls over when I'm teaching (e.g. Our kid getting sick or something) That's a huge thing when your family is in another hemisphere.

    Work colleagues are straightening up and not leaving me out to dry quite so much, so it's been heartening. In daily floods of tears last week, but I have a tentative feeling I just might survive this one.

    Thanks, fam, for having my back here. The support has been invaluable.

    You have this. Don't beat your body up by meds/healing AND work stress AND OMAD. OMAD will be still be there when the storm passes. So will we :)

    That's so sweet @KetoKaHee. Yeah, still on antibiotics. Started intermittent fasting again today (16/8). Will do that the rest of the week. Then 18/6, then 20/4, and back to OMAD. Been a long process. Thanks so much for asking.

    Hi all. Still here, but I'm afraid I'm not the brightest ray of sunshine. Off all meds as of yesterday, but still coughing gunk up. 5 weeks of being sick. My new job... well, let's just say the daily tears are back. I'm stressed.

    What happy things can I say? My husband and son continue to be the best things ever. You guys are still awesome, just quietly kicking *kitten* and taking names. I'm OMADing off and on as I can. OMAD Tuesday and Wednesday and today (Friday). I'll try for more consistency over the coming weeks.

    Man, am I ready to kick March to the curb! (Kerb--depending on where you are in the world. ;)

    How are all y'all?

    We are missing you but glad to see that you are fighting your way back. Being sick for 5 weeks and a stressful job! EKkkk...cry your eyes out as much as you want. But you know it will get better. It always does. These challenges make us stronger in the end even though it doesn't seem like it at the time! March is almost over and April is going to be kick a_ _ for you!! You just wait and see missy! Doing OMAD 3 times a week is a huge success with all you have going on! Bravo!!

    Moving to a new country is so stressful! I moved to NZ twice. First when I was 18 then again at 22. The first migration at 18 was tough! But I can appreciate that experience now I am living in Brisbane. :)

    Hi guys. I've fallen over and have gone off keto and started bingeing due to stress. I need help please. I need to get back on the OMAD wagon. I won't eat anymore today, but need accountability to help me with that. I'm a hot mess. Help!
