New Flash...it's official--I've got a "waist"!
a little while ago, while I was cooking my dinner( actually breakfast for dinner, loaded with FATS and not the so-called "good fats either
)--I have on my workout clothes and I was reaching up on a high shelf to grab something , my youngest daughter walked up to me and hugged me and exclaimed "Mom...you've got a waist, I can see curves and the outline of your waist and figure, you're looking really good"! This means MORE to me than you will ever know, because my figure type is so not curvy...I was ALWAYS either stick skinny or a round apple NEVER curvy ever, and I've ALWAYS wanted curves--all my life....NOT the "curves" that overweight/obese ladies claim as curves or curvy, but old school feminine curves and to hear this, from my daughter (who is so NOT the type to "flatter" or say nice things just to be saying them),just send me floating somewhere NICE, I'd NEVER thought I'd ever hear anyone say that about me...that I have CURVES--Yes---big ole BOOM!!!
Wooooowwwwww.....YAY--also, weigh in day is tomorrow
--BRING IT!

Yes, just fabulous...especially from this child, it's truly an eye opening and such a beautiful thing!1 -
I'm going to have a change of plans of sorts in my "new goals"...instead of having my first day DRY fast day tomorrow, I' going to have my first "water fast" only day. I've never had a full day (24hours) of just water ever in my life and nothing else. This fabulous OMAD life has prepare me to take it on. I thought I'd start my first 24 hour fast "Dry-Fasting" but nah... I may be biting off more than I can "chew" so to speak, starting out "dry-fastng" without first attempting a day of water fasting first. So, on Fridays will be my "water only" fast days and I'll work my way up to dry fasting, hopefully in the next month or so (4-8 weeks from now). We'll see how the water only fasting goes. I'm actually quite excited about it...a full day of fasting. I'm going to make it a day of both praying/meditating in the evening and during the day, find some good ole CLEAN movies (comedies), and old humerous books I have around here (that I haven't looked at in years) to also make it a day of laughter and delight too.
YAYYYYYYYY, how thrilling, I'm totally ready and all hyped up about it too....BRING IT!

Don't we already fast for 24 hours on OMAD? Are you saying you will skip the one meal and go for a total of 48 hours until the next meal?0

Wow...thanks so much for bringing this to my attention Debs!!!! It's going to be a 45 hour fast then, acutally....since my last thing I ate was around 8:30ish-9:00pm yesterday. Yes, I'm going to skip today's meal and am only drinking water and perhaps a cal/caffeine free herbal tea(s) all day and night today. My next meal will be tomorrow evening, around 5-6pm (my regular eating time is between 5-9pm). So, it's been so long that I've been doing OMAD, that I totally forgot it's a 24 hour fast and was thinking that skipping this OMAD meal this evening would equal 24 hours, but no...it'll be 45 hours and that's just amazing to consider, now that ya got me thinking about it. How thrilling!
I'm going to be doing this every Friday too! 0 -
Hello:
I've been thinking about doing a water fast on Fridays for the past couple weeks and was planning to begin next Friday.... after Thanksgiving. Great minds think alike. I always feel lighter the day before I weigh but don't feel it this week. I know how my body works and it's time to shake things up a bit. So next Friday when I begin water fasting, I'll be thinking of you knowing that we are doing this together. I know you can do it.
Blessings to you my friend.

I've thought about it but haven't tried. I did do a couple of 36 hour fasts when younger (and very skinny at the time) but that was for religious purposes and not for losing weight. It was not easy but I also was stick thin. Good luck but be careful. Don't let it through you off the OMAD!0

I have never been able to do more than a 24 hour fast without becoming ravenous. I don't know now though as I have not tried it in a number of years.0

Absolutely WOW! Seriously my sister and friend, you are simply the BEST. Thank you ever so VERY much for all that you are, all that you say and all that you do. Isn't that tremendous that The Lord put in your heart/spirit to do a Friday "water fast" too. Just Amazing. I don't know about you, but company on trying and new challenges just makes me so GLAD and ENCOURAGED and INSPIRED too. How thrilling!!!!!!! YAY you and me!
P.S. Let's go get'em, full speed ahead, NO looking back---BOOM!0
