    I had excessive carbs today for lunch. We had to visit our friends for their house warming ceremony where I had no option of low carb friendly food. They are not aware of my low carb OMAD lifestyle. So, I just ate whatever I was given but of course in moderation. Still, the net carbs come about 111 gms in MFP which is like 6 times my regular low carb OMAD meal!! Terrible! So, I am planning to do a 48 hour fast starting now till Tuesday. If I can, I may plan on extending it to 72 hour. Writing this post gives me a kind of commitment to the fast.

    You may be surprised. I often had a big weight drop after a carb up day like that when I was low carbing.

    So I did gain almost a pound from yesterday's carb loaded meal. I am hoping my fast for 48 hours will bring me back to where I was before the meal.

    Don't worry about that lb. It's likely just a bit of water. Enjoy the fast! I love the mental clarity that usually comes with a fast. :)

    Just a mid week update:
    I got my blood reports yesterday and I am glad to report that my total cholesterol has come down from 250 to 201. My LDL is still a little bit higher than the upper limit but I am sure it's going to go down further. Also, my 3 month average blood glucose is 105 which is perfect according to the guidelines. Thanks to OMAD for the weight loss. I look forward to even better results in another 3 months.

    As a side note, i know I won't be able to report big losses this week. It seems my body is getting used to the new weight.

    Thank you all so much, your support is the biggest motivation for me. I am just 0.8 kg/1.8 lbs away from bmi of 30 which will finally get me out of the obese category. I will still be overweight though.

    I gained 1 kg in 2 days of strength exercises. My muscles are really sore from the 2 consecutive days of workout. I am definitely not doing anything different on my food input. Guess its the water retention due to muscle soreness. Thinking of taking a day off from the workout.
