    Yes, you did right👍 A business partner should make each others work life easier and not harder. You can always find another business partner that you can work well with. So happy to hear that you guys can have parental visits again. As for us, we are back to Stage 3 as we are getting 30 plus people tested positive daily🙄 So happy to hear that you guys have a wonderful get together😊 Beautiful family photos and that includes Bubs of course❤️

    THanks guysssssssss <3

    I ate SO MUCH food over the weekend so back onto a full loss schedule this week - today will be easy because I feel like pooooooooooo so no appetite - Ced's sick too - and apparently my Utah guy's wife had a MASSIVE bike injury over the weekend and is going into surgery today :( Poor baby :( Send some love to Utah for me guys <3

    It's a good feeling when we over do it and then it resets our desires. Sorry you guys are sick, I hope you recover quickly! Sorry about the bike injury; hubby rides a lot and I always fear the worse when he's out there. he went over the handlebars once and separated his shoulder. It was hanging low and he had to have surgery. Not fun :o(

    Yeah the poor dear had to have a massive surgery yesterday and 10 screws and a plate later, she's ok but looking at a long recovery...she's a BEAST, didn't even want pain meds!!!

    IIIIIIIIIIIIIII wasn't feeling good so I ate like crap...not over cals but def not the fast I needed, but I'm feeling JUST FINE today so I'm gonna channel my inner @LadyBlanks and do a 3 day fast - it might not be super clean because I'mma need some coffee creamer to get me through this as it's been a WHILE since I did this long of an extended fast, but STILL - I gotta get a loss on the books this week (last weigh in 158.6) so PRAY FOR ME FOLKS LMAOOOOOO

    Super glad I'm feeling better today though so here's some food porn and Bubbers :)

    Steak Tips with Mushrooms Onions CRAP TONS of garlic and bleu cheese, with baguette of course

    Homemade pizza from Sunday night - I found more of that crust I'm obsessed with - its better than takeout, I'm telling you it's the best pizza crust I've ever found....half bacon/onion half pepp/mush :)

    Holy smokes. I hate pain meds, but I'd be asking for ALL OF THEM if I was her.
    Good luck on your fast!!!

    Glad you are feeling better today Steph. You can definitely handle a 3-day fast. I will be starting mine on Monday.

    Thanks guys!!! Down a full 5.2 pounds overnight :D Fasting for ya LOL

    161.8 this morning - my goal for Friday morn is 157 or lower :)

    Fast was clean, just a tiny bit of coffee creamer but meh :)

    Donna @volgirl1322 , here's a pic of it - I've had both this bistro crust (the round one) and the "family style" (square and bigger but same thickness) - I loveddddddddddd them both but I think the bistro is my fave because the size is perfect :) I've found it at Walmart and Kroger but Walmart more consistently. It's by the refrigerated biscuits and stuff :)

    Nothing else fun to report except I need a new stove LMAO - came home from errands this morning to get hit in the FACE with the smell of gas....Bubbers and evacuated and called consumers and they shut off the gas, but yeah....new range/oven needed (I'm renting so NOT ON MY DIME LMAO).

    BOTD - he was just being SO SILLY yesterday and was hangin' out like this for a quite a bit LMAO

    YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS get yo' pizza on ladies!!!! It's so good, and another thing I really like about it is that it can handle a lot of heat...I cook it at a very high temp, because I like well done toppings and cheese...most of them will burn too fast, or will get spongy and icky...this one DOES NOT...I'm telling you it's better than takeout crust for my money and preference <3

    Thanks for all the Bubbers love....he's basically my best franddddd LOL

    Fast is fabulous :) Hasn't been too bad at all but I suspect today might get a little tough as I hit the evening ONLY BECAUSE everyone is leaving early for vaca, and thus my work will pitter out and leave me bored...boredom is the DEVIL when you're fasting...hopefully my Shopkick offers reset and I can have an excuse to go to the store tonight to distract myself :)

    PS I'm now ADDICTED to this Starbuck's coldbrew concentrate - it's like $7.50 for a 32oz bottle that lasts me MAYBE two days BUT between coups, Ibotta, and Shopkick I've been getting it for a dollar or less....so HERE'S HOPING at least the shopkick rebate keeps going so I can feed my new habit LMAOOOOOOO

    Weigh in after day 2: 159.8
    (Just for reference I was 167 on Tues morn)

    REITERATING that my goal here is 157 by tomorrow morning which may be feasible :) Especially if I'm a good kid and don't put any creamer in aforementioned iced coffee LMAO That'd put me at a 1.6 pound loss on the week :)

    Finally feel like I'm making progress in the right direction - WHY I thought I could do that without extended fasting? No idea :D:D

    Happy Thursday kids!!!

    Wow your fast is fastastic! I think I only did one once ever for 11 days...that lemon, maple syrup, cayenne pepper one....lost quite a bit but uhhhh that taste (still haunts me). You're getting super rewarding results! I cook dinner for the hubs and son so there's no way I could fast...need to be alone. Wow on your couponing! That's super worth it. Did you say a while back that you have a related you tube channel? Yes, I agree...boredom and stress for me make not eating hard. I have an easy time when I'm out, even if someone is eating in front of me. Happy 4th!

    Hi guys!!!!!!!!! Quick update - I was 158.8 after fast last week, so basically undid the week before's damage LMAOOOOOOOOOO - had a great eating weekend, managed to gain THIRTEEN pounds of salt weight LMAOOOOOOOOO

    SO right back into another 3 day fast - I've GOT GOT GOT to get a loss this week!!! Mentally I need the reward so it better work for me LMAOOOOOOOOO - I was 172 yesterday (13 pounds LMAO) and down to 165 and change this morning so hoping to be down to 160 tomorrow so I've got a shot at 157 Thurs...if that doesn't happen I might push it another day because again, I NEED a win this week *sigh*

    Great job!

    Extended fasting longer than 24 hours seems WILD to me...but so did OMAD at first. I'm still not convinced that I could ever go over 24 but I admire those who can!
  • mistymeadows2005
    mistymeadows2005 Posts: 3,737 Member
    LMAO I've eased into over time simply because it's my preference *shrug* - I'd rather eat whatever the F I want on non fasting days (although inevitably it ends up being like a 6-8 hour eating window because I just don't think about food before like 4pm LMAO) - I'm going to ATTEMPT to be more reasonable on the weekends so I don't hafta do full 96 hour fasts every GD week just to get a loss LMAO

    You're the fastmaster Steph! Thanks for sharing that kind of quick water weight gain. Man I used to get so deflated putting on 5 pounds in a weekend. I thought I had magical gain weight powers. Then I came on here and was really surprised that it happens to other people. It def takes its time to come off me though. Good luck on your fast and I hope it goes by fassssssssssssssst!

    Hey thanks boo!!! Once you get used to it, the only thing that annoys me is not having food to "look forward to" so it's all mental LMAO - 5 pounds in a weekend would be AMAZING to me! LMAOOOOOOOOO - I put on 13 pounds in 3 F-ing days LMAO - but as of this morning 10 of them are goneeeeeeeeeee - I need to show another 5 pound loss by tomorrow to have 1.8 net loss on the week :) If that doesn't happen I'll try to extend my fast another day, though that might be impossible if I end up at Mama's tomorrow night *shrug* - we'll see!!!

    This morn - 162.1 :)

    OH I'm also going to try to switch over to REAL WATER (not diet soda or crystal light or whatever) for at least the 2nd half of the day/overnight - I'm hoping that lil drop in sodium will help get me where I need to be tomorrowwwwwwwwwww LOL

    CMONNNNNNNNNNN 157!!! I NEED YA!!!!

    Hope you got to your goal! 13 pounds in 3 days and taking it back off just as fast is incredible. WoW. Hope you have fun at Da Mama's :) And you're right, when I fasted the 'one' time :D I really missed looking forward to eating...it was like there wasn't much to do. Missed that hand in mouth motion. Have a great weekend and hope you get pampered.

    Thanks guys!!! I didn't get a good weigh-in because I was at Mama's and that just throws everything off - but I followed protocol AND today I'm doing a mini fast and then RIGHT BACK onto a 96 hour Tues-Thurs - I gotta get this weight off folks, I don't know what ma body is DOING LMAO

    HI Guysssssssssssss!!!! I have a little time this morning for a more thorough post :)

    So I have no weigh in from last week because it was a week at Mama's but I'm assuming it did it's job because I ran the play :)

    I did a mini fast yesterday (just some cereal) and had a starting fast weight of 164.8 :) That's not bad!!! So PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE scale!!! 157 or less PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE :)

    I'm getting sick of these long fasts not producing me any results but like I said in @Leah_62803 I just have to keep it up until my body catches up - I hope maybe I'll see a whoosh this week from my last 3 weeks work and get down below this week's goal...but I'd be happy with 157 :)

    I'm gonna load up on the caffeine today - I have a feeling the cravings monster is gonna be rough today and I'm usually right LMAO - might as well get ahead of it with some caffeine LMAO :D

    Other than that, here's just some Nuglette and Bubs pics :)
