    Well done on your loss and for sticking to the plan. Meals look sooo good. Lots of variety, which I also like.

    Looks good! I miss macaroni and cheese. I wish WF sold gluten-free macaroni and cheese -- I've heard theirs is so good!

    Went to a funeral today and ended up eating an hour early at 4:00 pm. I then had desert around 8:00 and shared a taco salad with my husband after 9:00. I ended up having an eating window of 4:00 - 10:00 pm.

    Sometimes you gotta have some little deviations. Not a big deal. Long term patterns matter!

    That's true, @blambo61. Tracey, sorry to hear you have had to attend a funeral.

    My timings have been all over the place while on vacation and just trying to get it back to an order now. I'm sure you will be getting back to normal today.

    Will be making adjustments for this week. Adjustments will include incorporating alternating low carb days and alternating meal times. This week's plan will look like this:

    I want my numbers to be more consistent (the big jumps literally freak me out) so I think the alternate day low carb meals will help with that at least I hope.

    Looks like a good plan. Good luck with the next few days and LC.

    Will you have high fat days with your LC?

    My low carb days will be high fat more following a keto diet meal.

    Good luck!

    I'm trying out high fat days as well (had 4 eggs and a lot of cheese yesterday) but for me, it's to replace all the sweet foods I'm trying to withdraw from rather than following a keto plan.

    Would be interested to know how you go with keto.

    I did the keto diet before switching to OMAD. I liked it and it worked for me, but it got kind of hard to stick to as I have people in my house who keep the high carb foods around and it became hard to resist. I believe the alternate day will be no problem though because I would not be denying, I would just be delaying for a day.

    I like the idea of delaying instead of denying. That's a great attitude!
