Day 5:

Cravings: I've started craving spinach of all things!

Feelings: Today, I noticed I look slightly different in the mirror and I have that nice floaty feeling again. My mum noticed I'm looking slimmer too. I'm looking forward to weighing in at the weekend. The hunger is dwindling. However, I find it hard when others discuss food, I'm not sure why, but it makes things hard.

Cooking: After my chat with the Nutritionist, I took up part of her advice to make my own almond bread (because we discussed my bread addiction). I made it, thinking it'll taste eggy, but it actually came our great! I was impressed with myself http://allrecipes.com/recipe/246002/almond-flour-bread/print/?recipeType=Recipe&servings=8 The foods I'm now stocking in my fridge and eating are far more better. I've left behind the processed and packaged foods behind, it's having a positive impact on the whole family.

Weight Loss: Today, I only managed a 16 hour fast. My goal is to do OMAD, but my ultimate goal is to loose weight and be healthy, which I definitely am.

Motivation: My boys are my biggest motivation. Especially when they run off and ask me to join them. I also use Pinterest to help me imagine where I'm heading.

Day 6:

Water & Liquids: I'm finding it easy to keep on top of my water intake. I don't really get hungry now, but still enjoy a black coffee every morning and every day, before my meal I have Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar as recommended for OMAD and by my Nutritionist.

Feelings: I feel good, full of energy and calm. Again, however, I did have an energy slump after my meal and ended up having an unplanned nap. The good thing, is I know now why this happens and that it'll pass.

Mini Successes: All OMAD today! Yay! I walked up various stairs and ran for the bus, I didn't feel like I was going to collapse and die, I could breath. I'd bought a bigger light jacket last week, because the weather is getting warm and I was getting bigger. But I put it on today and it drowned me. I have another jacket two sizes down, it's sexier, but I can't fit in it as yet, so that's now my new mini goal.

Frosty Situation: The past couple of days, I've been feeling chilly, especially in the evenings and at night. I'm used to this feeling, when I'm experiencing rapid weight loss. I know that week two, my weight loss will settle down to a slower pace and I'll warm (I've done VLCD and Keto in the past). But it's just as well the weather's warming up!

Day 7: a busy day, so short entry

Dreams: Again I had vivid dreaming. So now I know for sure that it's OMAD that brings them about.

Calorie Counting: I don't calorie count, but decided to roughly enter my calories in to MFP. My meal came to just over 1000 calories. Which means, even on the days I only managed a 16 hour or so fast, I would still be under 2000 calories and loose weight.
