Karie - OMAD 7/18/15

kabrigail

Hello. My name is Karie. I started OMAD on 7/18/15. I just want to go over how much I've lost each week and maybe a couple things I experienced.

The first week was okay. I felt hungry, but drank coffee in the morning and that really helped. And I drank Chai Latte tea in the afternoon and that really helped. I still do this. I lost 4.5 pounds that first week. 2nd week I lost 3.5. 3rd week I lost 1 pound and today, on week 4 I only lost 1 pound.

I understand that my body might be resisting or something and I'm going to stick with it, but I wonder if it makes an impact if I'm not eating enough calories. I eat out just about every day. I'm single and live alone, so I just pick something up on the way home. Some days the meal I get may be 900 calories and some days it might be closer to 1200 calories. I quit drinking. That was tough at first, but I feel so much better and sleep so much better.

Anyways, that's just a little of what I've experienced. I want to update this each time I'm thinking something or have a weigh in.

Wow you're doing well. Do you also exercise or is this just from doing OMAD?

I gained a 1/2 a pound. I'm not happy. I haven't had a gain or a 0 for a while so i was kind of thinking it might happen but I'm still not happy. I hope it shows a big loss on the scale next week because of it though. This is not what I wanted for March. I wanted 2 pounds a week. If I average 2 pounds a week I'll be okay with that, but as long as I'm losing weight I'm very okay with that.

Brendalea69

Maybe it's just water weight but stick with it because you've done so well so far and hoping for you to have a big loss next week

Vanguard1

I am inspired by your overall trend. As a newbie to OMAD, I can look at your progress and decide this is a method that works, and is worth my time. With OMAD you have lost 27.5 lbs. in 26 weeks, not too many programs give that type of results over a 6 month period. Great Job and thanks for the motivation!!

kabrigail

Thank you both. The encouragement is what helps keep me going and of course the results. OMAD is the only diet that I've ever been able to stick with and the easiest diet for sure.

Your doing great!

Great work Karie!

1MADGIRL

the half pound gain went away fast

kabrigail

I'm getting extremely aggravated.

KetoKaHee

Why?? You have consistently been losing and doing fantastic!

blambo61

I wish my number were half as good as yours! Your doing well, why aggravated?

Brendalea69

Sorry you're aggravated but don't beat yourself up, Joe said there would be stalls so don't give up

1MADGIRL

I agree with brenda... stalls are bound to happen. But they are temporary. You've stalled for two weeks and gone so well for months! dont worry about it. report back next week and we'll talk about your progress. If in the following weeks you are still stalled, we'll see what you can try

blambo61

I see in your data that there have been three other occasions where you really didn't have a loss for a two-week average and you have always seemed to come out of it. Give it another week or two to see what happens!

Babygyrl17

About how many calories do you take in with OMAD?
