Holly's OMAD Journey

Date began OMAD: 4/2/2017
Weight: 311 lbs Height: 5'3"
Age: 56
I began this journey after years of trying everything to lose weight. My first diet was at age 11. I've tried weight watchers, fasting (liquid diet) in a hospital program, low carb, medication, everything but surgery. I find it easier to not eat than eat small meals because I'm a food addict. OMAD gives me the ability to enjoy a good meal at the end of the day and I don't have to count calories. I'm sick of that. I usually choose lots of protein and vegetables anyway.
Week 1: I had lots of energy. The few headaches were better with more water or coffee. Day 3 I was very hungry and ate a small low sugar fruit cup. That was a good choice for that day. Now I'm not really hungry until dinner. Some mornings I have half a breakfast drink with skim milk. Two nights I still had issues with binging but it was less than usual. I'm eating between 4-6.
I have not told my family and with busy schedules, no one has noticed. For some reason, that helps. Tonight my daughter invited us over for pizza. I don't need to worry but might take a small salad or veges to round out the meal.
I've lost 4 lbs!
