    Today's weight 154.3 pounds. This is a monthly loss of 0.7 pounds. I am not going to complain because it is a loss, but I would have loved to have a bigger loss. I am going to continue to stick to plan and hope for a bigger loss next month.

    A loss is a loss is a loss babe!!! At least your efforts are not happening without results!!!

    You've got this babe!!!

    Well since my last post, I have struggled big time and my weight jumped back up to an outrageous 168 pounds. I have finally come to my senses once again and as of yesterday, I am back to strict OMAD. My weight this morning was 162.4 pounds following yesterday's weight of 166 pounds. I am hoping to get into the mid 150s or less by the time my 3 day fast rolls around (6 July) and then with the 3-day fast, get below last month's fast ending weight of 154.3 pounds. I would love to see 150 or below come 9 July.

    Last month's loss was only 0.7 pounds. I really need to see a bigger loss for this month.

    158.8 pounds this morning. Being back on track feels great. OMAD all the way! I am feeling really positive about possibly getting to 154.3 BEFORE my 3-day fast and seeing 150 or below after my 3-day fast.

    Day 1 of 3-day fast morning weight 160.8 pounds. I need to lose 6.5 pounds from this fast to net a loss for the month.

    Day 2 of 3-day fast morning weight 158.8 pounds for an overnight loss of 2 pounds. 4.6 pounds to have a net loss for the month. I really need to push more water today and tomorrow. I have been really struggling in the water drinking department lately.

    OAN: I purchased a Lumen metabolism tracker device. It is claimed to be able to hack your metabolism. You breathe into it and based of the CO2 it detects in your breath, it tells you whether your body is burning carbs or fat for fuel and based on your results it recommends either a low, medium, or high carb eating day to get you into fat burning mode. It came in on Sunday, the day before my fast so I won't get to use it until after I break my fast because you have to have a calibration day where you breathe into it at different times during the day (morning, after meals, before exercise,) for it to register a baseline. So I will be doing my calibration day on Thursday and use it daily after that. I will let you know my thoughts on it once I have used it a bit.

    Happy to have you along Steph. So far the fast has been good. I don't get the big losses that I used to during my extended fasts, but I am hoping to be able to get below 154.3 pounds in the morning. I just weighed myself and was 156.6 pounds so that is a 2.2 pound overnight loss. If I have the same tomorrow, that will be 154.4 which will not have me at a loss for the month so I am hoping and praying for an overnight woosh to put me below 154.3 pounds.

    Best wishes Steph for a successful fast. Believing for both of us reaching our goals.

    I am going to have to force the water down today. I hardly had any yesterday. I have spells where I am all about the water and then times when I don't want to have anything to do with water. This is one of those times. No matter how hard I try, I can manage no more than 4 ounces of water. But I am forcing it today as I said and I just finished my first 32-ounce cup. I am going to refill and just drink, drink, drink. Like you, I really need to have a loss, any loss tomorrow.

    Oh yeah I'd see NO LOSS AT ALL if I didn't push the water!!!

    Honestly, babe, if you can't have more than 4 oz of water at a time, you MAY wanna see your doctor....that doesn't seem normal............

    It's not that I can't have more than 4 ounces, It's I don't want to drink more than 4 ounces. I will have a full 32-ounces in front of me and will just sip. I think I have drunk more, but it is barely moved.

    I just finished my second 32-ounces and am going to fill again. I hope to get a gallon in today so two more refills and I am golden.

    With me talking about my water struggle. I am thinking I need to do a challenge in August. Not to a specific weight loss number, but to get me on track doing the healthy stuff I need to be doing like drinking my water. I am thinking

    Daily: 10,000 steps, burn 600 active calories, 30 workout minutes, 70 ounces water, 7 hours sleep, breathe into Lumen every morning,
