    I too feel guilty for tossing food away😔 That is why I always have my OMAD with hubby so that I can pass it to him 😄 However, when I eat alone, then its a different story. Indulgence to satisfy our taste buds is better than falling off the wagon completely👍❤️

    Yum! I can't count the number of times I've sat beside my LO watching her eat pizza while I just sigh. Every so often it is good to indulge... or I would crack! I do love keto pizza, though. I was thinking of making one this weekend. We need our own version of "Keep Calm and Keto On." KKOO?

    BTW: I love your typo: "I h/ate the pizza." I relate to that. :D

    Total cals – I don't count calories

    Clean fasting FTW as I lost 3.1 pounds overnight! At least in my case. Seriously, I didn't even have that kind of result when I did a 70 hour fast last month where I allowed myself some bullet proof coffee and heavy whipping cream in regular cups, I maybe had 3 cups in total between all of them.

    I'm off trazodone now since I couldn't take the swelling anymore, yesterday was the worst. I do not get swollen feet unless I've hurt myself, so for them to swell like they did led to me to believe there was only one culprit. I also felt really sad the past several days, and that's not my normal personality, even though I suffer from chronic insomnia. My doctor called in a prescription for another non-addictive sleep aid called doxepin, which I already am dreading since it's another anti-depressant/anti anxiety med and she prescribed the full dose; I read earlier for insomnia they usually only prescribe 3-6mg, not 10mg. I won't wait if any weird symptoms pop up.

    I'm doing another clean fast today and I know any weight loss is mostly water weight, but when I eat again it will be predominantly be, if not solely, healthy foods.

    haha, I love the quote! I would crack, too, if I didn't indulge from time to time. It's when I indulge too often throughout a month where it starts becoming the norm, so I need to make sure those times are limited.

    Sandy---
    Wow congrats on the 3lb drop even though it was water weight it is still a loss. I feel sorry for you with all the sleep issues you are going through and with the side affects as well---that is so tough. Hopefully the new med will give you some relief without terrible side affects.....

    Sending hugs your way <3

    @volgirl1322, thank you. I don't understand why she's giving me such a high dose. I read the possible side effects: Some patients reported sleep-driving, sleep-walking, sleep-eating, and... sleep sex. Um, my husband is offshore, I best not be having no sleep sex with random strangers! lol I fear that more than the other sleep things, aside from sleep eating.

    Excellent loss! You're doing the right things. You might inspire me to try a mini clean fast one day.

    Total cals – I don't count calories

    Another clean fast day led to me being down another 2.4 pounds overnight for a total of -5.5 so far and I'm at the 60 hour mark, and an awesome NSV... lost 2 inches around my waist within the timeframe as well.

    I think I got too worked up last night worrying about possible side effects so I didn't sleep at all--which means I also didn't have sleep sex with random strangers! Haha :-) HOWEVER, I have a butt ton of energy this morning. I finally got out of bed around 3:30 and relaxed with some black coffee before cleaning the bathroom and kitchen, and starting some laundry. I still have a lot of "ya-yas" to get out, so I will probably clean some more and fold clothes and maybe watch some Killing Eve since I already re-watched S8 E3 of Game of Thrones with my screen brightened to full so I could actually see what happened. I know I will crash and burn later due to no sleep, but that's okay, I'm not panicky anymore. I'll still probably put up some barricades just to be safe. lol

    Still carrying on with my clean fast since it's helping counteract the no sleep affects and making me feel great!

    Have a great Friday!!!

    @Brendalea69 I sure am, though this is the first day I've really felt good and have had energy in about a week. I'm happiest with both the energy and 2 inches lost so far, I couldn't believe it. :-)

    NCHI gov website has a list of possible side effects including super rare ones, it's those I got obsessed with. It also helped to see that the majority of those weird sleep encounters happen with actual sleep aids like Lunesta and Ambien, and others like them, but even so they are rare. I just don't want to be one of those rare and bizarre cases. lol

    @mistymeadows2005, thank you, thank you! I shall ride the wave as long as I can :-) I instantly fell in love with Killing Eve within the first five minutes, I love those gals--even though one is a broken M16 agent and the other an evil psychopath lol. And, yep, the barriers will go back in place hehe

    @volgirl1322 thanks so much! Seeing onederland next week would be awesome, I won't be heartbroken if I'm not, but it would be sweet. :-) True that to no strangers in the mix! lol
