You are killing it, congrats!
I'm just astonished at your REAL LIFE before and after pictures!
You have definitely been an inspiration to regain my college body and energy level again!
Thanks, I weighed 120 before I got pregnant at the age of 15 (almost 16). It took me 33 years to get back within 2 pounds of that weight. If I can do it anyone can

Thanks Britt and Robert1

It's good when you can eat more like you want and still maintain or even lose. You are doing so good.1

I showed a cousin your story last night. She is basically the same height and eats lots of wild game. Our family is full of hunters!
She is inspired!

Remember how I said I was planning on doing OMAD 4 or 5 days a week? Well I've decided that from now on my maintenance plan will be OMAD As Needed. This means that I will eat mindfully each day and if my weight is not where I want it to be by the end of the week then I will have however many OMAD days it takes to get me back to where I want it to be.2

I like that plan!0
-
Sounds like a perfect plan!0
-
Thanks girls0

Won't hurt to try. If you don't like it, you can always change.1
-
That plan sounds PERFECT! And you may find that you still stick to OMAD with mindful eating, too. That's pretty much what happened to me. I was only getting hungry once per day most days unless I worked out.1
-
So far I feel great I've done mindful eating for 5 days with no counting carbs or calories and I'm only up 3.2 pounds so today was an OMAD day and if I'm back down to 124 tomorrow I will start mindful eating again but if I'm more I will do another OMAD day.0

Mindful eating for me would be eating the house and enjoying every bite!0
