Question to experienced OMAD fasters :
I have been eating these three things listed below during my fasting window and wondering if will hinder my progress.
1) Medium sized apple
2) Salt Free crackers - 3 pieces
3) 1/4 th cup milk in coffee
That's not much calorie wise so if you need that to keep going, I think it is a good trade-off. My problem is I can't snack. It wakes my stomach up and then I get really hungry and then it is all over. The only think that doesn't effect me like that is coconut oil. I think it would be better not to do that but it is worth it if it keeps you going. I do notice, I will eat more in the evenings usually if I have lunch than when I don't. I think it stretches my stomach. What you ate won't do that though. If your not losing, I would focus on how much your eating in your evening meal because that is where most of your calories are coming from.1 -
Yesterday I planned a splurge day and ate at a Mexican restaurant for dinner. I did not count calories or sweat about things. It was followed by some great authentic bengali sweets and little ice cream. A good mental break. Curious to see the changes during today's weigh in0

Don't let the number on the scale bother you, I hope the splurge helps your plateau 0

Love this, Bob, "it wakes my stomach up"!! That's exactly what a snack does to me too... I think it's what Steph said about the insulin release that does the waking up.0 -

I had to go to India for 3 weeks since my father passed away. I am back now and starting omad again. I couldn't fast while I was there with so many things going on. Any tips on how to get rite back into OMAD or does it take a few days of 2mad to get back into pure OMAD?0
-
I have no advice as I am trying to get back into the routine of 2mad. I just read through your thread. Sounds like you were having success. Condolences about your father.1

Sorry for your loss
I would just jump right back into OMAD but that's just my opinion, you do what feels good for you. Good luck!1 -
So sorry about your father
IMO I think you should try to listen to your body to determine whether you should restart right away or need to transition. Dealing with situations like death can put a lot of stress on your body without you realizing it, and fasting does, too. I would probably have intentions of jumping back in, but if I found myself unbearably hungry instead of just the unpleasant hunger that comes with reducing intake, I would allow myself a snack until my hunger naturally readjusts.1
