    Thanks again Morena!
    Well yesterday was a good day, water and coffee simple without anything all day and the meal around 1730-18

    Hunger all day long ,but this is normal I'm getting used again to Omad
    Being at work it is easier to respect this, let's see what weekend brings.Till then it is still half of a week

    So yesterday was like in the Queen song 'I was born to love you'
    "An amazing/
    Feeling
    Came into my heart"

    I felt great like energy and capacity of thinking, more positive and more focused at work
    In fact that is how is started 2020 which I hope to be a better year

    I prepared in the evening, after I ate , the meal for today cause I like meal prep and to be organised - a habit from work I guess :)
    So today I will have pork meatballs with cabbage salad and grilled cheese
    I already see the scale it is nice to me
    2 kilos in minus which I know it is probably water but it gives me motivation

    I am also waiting to have delivered the Gratitude journal, I think it is good way to express the good thing in my life , including going back to Omad

    Have a nice evening to you, day to me , here it is 06:38 a.m and at 7 a.m I will go to work!

    Great start! And music is amazing for inspiration and motivation! Maybe be should start an inspiring/motivating music thread for when the going gets tough.

    Yesterday had a difficult day at work , but being busy it is easier with Omad
    My best friend changed his phone number and I did not know that I have also the new number in my agenda so I was sad I couldn't call, but in the end I discovered the new number
    I was hungry all day but with coffee and water it went fine
    I drink my coffee simple , I got used to it
    I was a little tired but I think this si just because I am getting used again with the lifestyle
    So everything went ok finally with all the struggle of the day :)

    Today I am preparing egg muffins with bacon and mozzarella grated also I think the same after tomorrow , will see

    Have a nice and Omad day! <3

    Oh, yeah. Being busy helps heaps! I think that’s why weekends are tougher for me. So much of my leisure time revolves around food! 😄

    For me too the weekends I cannot manage too much, but this time I will try!It is the first we back to OMAD

    Thank you all for the kind words <3

    Yesterday was better , yes, at job, it was good especially that today we have the weekly meeting usually on Wednesday ,but this week my boss was in a delegation and we will have this today
    A mouth of fresh air and back to the tasks!

    Today in the menu fried chicken wings with cabbage salad and mayo
    I cannot wait my meal hour! :)
    And I will have my water, here I found there is a water a little diuretic which I prefer also as taste, is called Evian, is French, I succeed easily to drink 2 liters daily

    The temperature here is warmer than usually this February, we have 17 Celsius degrees which is not normal
    I think the seasons are not delimited anymore like before in the childhood and yesterday it was also a red sky like preparing for an earthquake, yes it was at 3:26 a.m this morning, but small, only 5.4 degrees on Richter scale, I have not feel anything and in a zone a little distant from the capital,so I was glad for this
    When it is so warm outside when it should be cold ,that is happening, usually we have this in spring, it is a little scary anyhow when it is bigger :(

    Well, so , preparing for the weekend, on Saturday we will be home and on Sunday at shopping with mum and my husband, on the list fish and vegetables, I plan some nice salads next week

    Have a nice and Omad day!

    Omigosh - scary for sure. The entire world seems on edge at the moment for one reason or another, and all the reasons are serious.

    the good news the appointment went well, my eyes are perfect healthy, the bad news, I need to make a visit also to the neurologist it can be due to stress or my equilibrium
    And it can be due to stress, I have my eyes tired and sometimes dry
    Will see next week , but for the moment I am happy with it!

    Yes, we did not have winter till now, it was snowing, now there are 0-2 degrees but it was snowing around 20-30
    cm .But what to say, winter had to come ... :)
    It was more difficult to go from my house to the place where the taxi was waiting rather tan the road to work, it was early and nobody was awake so I had to build the road though the snow myself

    Here it is epidemy of flu even without the corona virus because it was warm instead of having normal cold of winter
    But the corona we do not have yet cases in the country

    The appointment it is not yet because they will want me to start already the program, so I will wait till March, I am watching however their videos and familiarize myself with them
