    So. Much. Sleep!!! That's so good, I bet your body was so happy! I had a question, when you say you're doing a "mini fast" is that different from OMAD. I'm still trying to learn everything and jumping into everyone's threads is like reading a new language!!

    I hope you have a happy Tuesday and continue to feel better!!

    Glad you are back and feeling better....Your sister from the south is puffy mcstuffings too just like you said LMAO......I am pushing so much water and hoping it will all get away quickly.....

    @Nedlysunshine Mini fasts are just really low cal days that are OMAD but just not a meal with a normal range of cals. For me it is usually 500 and foods that are super rich in nutrients......Everyone is a bit different with their numbers ---there is no right or wrong ---just whatever works for you :)

    Thank you @volgirl1322 couldn't have put it better myself! Some of my days go as high as 800...sometimes as low as 300 :) Just another tool in increasing your weekly deficit :)

    And yes Ned, my body was so glad I got to go back to sleep for a while :) Goin' strong so far! WOOT WOOT!

    God, I gotta get on dat water doe'.....

    Today’s Plan: Mini Fast
    Weight Goal for the Month: 158
    Today’s Weight: 163.2
    Height: 5’7”
    Today’s Water Consumed: Not nearly enough – maybe 80 oz? UGH
    Today’s Exercise completed (calories burned if desired): Normal work walking
    Hours slept: 6.5

    Wednesday:

    Welp, it's Weds but I will not let it defeat me today! Got a decent amount of sleep last night so I'm feelin' aighttttt :)

    161 even today!

    NICEEEEEEEEEE big drop overnight, 2.2 - FINALLY got back on my bone broth yesterday, and my body rewarded me for it. I'm CONVINCED the bone broth has to stay no matter what...both for weight loss and my general health apparently LOL - I suppose there's a reason it's been medicine for centuries LOL

    Welp I have a LC mini fast planned tonight and a full fast Thurs as always, so I have a hard time believing that I WOULDN'T get 158 or lower...that's only 3.X pounds in 2 days, one of which is a fasting day :thinker: Hey, seeing as it's my final EOM number, I'd take lower without complaint! LOL

    Forgot my cherry tomatoes backup that I wanted to bring...I had a feeling I'd get hungry throughout the day today...I don't know why - if I do I'll run and grab something low carb, but otherwise I'll stick to mini LC OMAD :)

    Girrrrl, you are rocking it. With your mini fast and full fast still left to be accounted for, I can see you easily being below 158 come Friday. You get it girl!!

    Today’s Plan: LC Mini Fast
    Weight Goal for the Month: 158
    Today’s Weight: 161
    Height: 5’7”
    Today’s Water Consumed: Better – over 100 oz but probs not over a gallon *sigh*
    Today’s Exercise completed (calories burned if desired): Lots of work walking
    Hours slept: 7.25
    Description/Photo of Meals: Chicken salad made with “crack” ranch and onions, eaten over lettuce, bone broth and some sugar free candy


    Total cals – 1105
    Total deficit - 1216

    Your thoughts/comments on the day: Meh, ended up munching a little at work…not particularly low carb stuff either LOL – had my OMAD with Hubs while watching the playoffs…fell asleep on the couch but he shoo-ed me into bed around 11:45 – good day overall 

    Thursday:

    159.8 :)

    Only 0.2 over my low weight from last week, so tonight's loss will pretty much be my net loss (YAY!) and it's a water fast day (SHOCKER, it's Thursday LOL)!!!

    Would've liked to have seen 158 today just for funsies, but that there "mini fast" was really just an OMAD LOL - I paid for it on the scale but that's ok :) 157 would be glorious (and would be a 2.8 loss for the week which would be on par with last week's only 0.6 *even though it was a weird week*)

    Anywho, water fasting todayyyyyyy and tomorrow we're doing a fast food basketball night so I'm going to try to keep my fast-breaking to a minimum and save my cals for the evening - maybe I'll bring my grape tomatoes to munch on since I forgot them yesterday :) '

    Hope everyone's progress is AWESOME!!!

    <3

    Crack ranch is just homemade ranch (like mine) that the corner store near my house makes...I frequently stock up on it so I don't have to make it...it's just REALLY F**KING good ranch LOL - I use it instead of mayo because it stretches more and has more flavor to mix up with onions and canned chicken to make "chicken salad" and eat it on romaine boats :)

    158.2 :)

    Not the 158 I wanted but that SF candy stole my 0.2 lbs! LOL!
    Meh whatever...still happy with a 1.4 pound loss on the week :)

    I think I'll shoot for 156 - that's a push but if I ACTUALLY BEHAVE MYSELF >:D I might be able to pull it off :) it'll be my first "normal" week in a while so that'll help!

    Other than being sick on Monday it was a fairly boring week but happy with my results - FAST FOOD TONIGHTTTTTTTTT yassssssss - #Coups! #CoupsForTheWin

    F**KING FABULOUS! It said to wait 2 days to let it fully expand but it looked fine 3 hours later at bedtime so I made the bed and slept on it anyway! IT. WAS. GLORIOUS. And I think it's going to get better as it fully expands and settles.

    Even Ced got on it before he left for work last night and was like "ok....I take it back....it's really nice" lol - glad I spent the extra few bucks and got the good one...I dig it <3

    If the scale says .6 or above I round it up but if its .4 or lower I round it down so YAY, that means you made it to your goal weight for the month!!! :)
