    Keep it up Tracey! Be careful all getting too aggressive. You can have some backlash from that sometimes!

    Yes, it is a teriyaki stir fry mix I picked up it has brussel sprouts, kale, broccoli, and other vegetables. It was pretty good. If I make it again, I will just saute the vegetables without the sauce.

    This week was a bust and ended with me weighing in this morning at 159.7 pounds. All of this up and down got me to thinking of how I can stop faltering and led me to developing a plan that I can stick to no matter what is going on in my life. In thinking, I came up with a new plan that I started today and will be able to do in either weight loss mode or maintenance. Today is day 31 of my 60 day desire to reach 145 pounds. After my first 30 days I am up 2 pounds from day 1 so I now have 14.7 pounds to lose to get to 145 pounds. I am a bit discouraged but think If I stick to my plan I can do it. It may take a bit longer than 30 days but I will get there.

    ************************************************************************

    My new plan is based off of a concept I got from an intermittent fasting Youtuber fledge fitness. To make it easy on myself my plan is broken down into work days and non-workdays.

    My new plan will run on fledge fitness WARMAD (combination of warrior diet and OMAD) protocol which is incorporating a 4 hour eating window where you either eat during the 4 hour period or have your OMAD within the 4 hour period and the 16/8 protocol.

    On workdays I will do WARMAD with my 4 hour window being 4:30pm - 8:30pm. While in weightloss mode I will do LC OMAD and when I get back into maintenance, I will do the warrior protocol and eat regular meals during the 4 hour hour window with some OMAD mixed in. On non work days, I will have an 8 hour eating window from 11am - 7:00pm doing LC during weight loss mode and regular meals during maintenance. I will also be incorporating an extended fast the last weekend of each month starting when I close my eating window on Thursday and ending when I open my eating window on Sunday.

    Sounds like a good plan! I agree that that would work in maintenance as well, so I am taking notes!

    That meal looks amazing! Did you make the cauliflower rice stir fry yourself, or was it packaged? I need to look for that in the store! I am not a huge cauli-rice fan because nothing compares to rice for me, but I am thinking I may need to revisit it for meal bulking purposes.
