    Thank you everyone...the pain is dulling into an ache...I'm hoping to get full back on my schedule next week...for now I'm just omad-ing, but I'm sure I'll show a gain, which is fine. Mental health took precedence this time around.

    Glad you’re feeling a bit better Steph. I know how hard it is, we lost one of our dogs around this time last year.

    Hi guys...just wanted to update you and let you all know that I'm ok (mostly *sigh*)...life keeps throwing things at me...Friday I found out my best friend's mom was just rediagnosed with cancer (a new and different kind), and then Saturday, I had an uncle pass away.

    I had a Dr's appt today and my weight is hanging steady (which is miraculous given the amounts of stress we've been through), so no progress but that's ok. Still OMADing, just a little pre-occupied...thanks for all your kind words and I'm still reading everyone's posts etc. Hope you all doing awesome, and I appreciate you <3

    Thanxxx for the update Steph. Sorry for all you're going through. Great that you're hanging steady through it all. Life has a lot of ups and downs and it's just easier for us to forget about ourselves when so much more is in the forefront of our minds. Look forward to seeing all your yummy meals when you're ready. <3

    OMG that sucks... Great that you're holding steady though and not adding to the stress by gaining. I know it can seem like a sort of selfish and not so important thing to be worried about your weight when there's so much other life changing sh1t going on, but honestly, it's about your health and long-term health too. Plus I know I get even more depressed about stuff when I'm gaining weight, like I'm out of control or something. (Hope that makes sense...) <3

    Ok guys - I feel like I'm getting strong enough to start focusing on losing again - I was going to fast fully today but might not if I get really hungry - if I do eat an OMAD tonight, I'm going to try to make it very low cal (like one of my mini fasts) and if that happens, I'll just chalk it up to easing back into the right mindset...I'm in for the marathon, not the sprint so it's all good. Thanks for your support over the last few weeks, my darlings.

    It is fun to go down in size (except I don't like buying new clothes)!

    Nothing better than food, family and fun except maybe getting smaller clothes ;)

    Awesome about the medium jacket! Nothing worse than a winter jacket that’s too small... I’ve definitely been there!

    Hi guys! Sorry for the radio silence! Life has been getting in the way! I've been mostly OMADing but not being very conscious of what I was eating, ergo gained about 3-4 pounds when I weighed at the Dr today - bright side, I wasn't fasted which I normally am when I weigh in so that could account for some. I'm not worried about it, I'm back on full OMAD and fasting days as of tomorrow!

    In other good news, my blood pressure is finally coming down! For a few months there it was SCARY sky high, most likely due to way more than my fair share of stressors. Things are settling down, though, and I'm in a good place mentally, so time to get back on the wagon with getting to a good place physically!

    I'll try to catch up with everyone's threads in the next few days! Ciao for now m'loves!
