    Forgot I took pics of food and Bubs :)

    The stupid food pic won't send to my email with my dodgy-a** reception in here so I'll have to post both food pics tomorrow....

    Here's my sweet baby boy Bubs :)

    Haha looks like a fake (toy) cat.. :D So darn cute. Congrats on your weight loss and sometimes I think its good to give yourself (your body and mind) a break. You have done amazing in the past couple of months! We are here and OMAD is not going anywhere so you now know how to maintain/or even lose if needed. Glad to hear your anx is better. Great that you are listening to yourself! Well done! <3

    Lil bugger has me wrapped around his lil paw :p

    Weds, Weds...

    Well as anticipated, FINALLY got my gallon of water in yesterday - it took concerted effort, but we got it done. The result?

    151.8!

    MANNNNNNNNN I actually had a smaller deficit yesterday then the day before but JUST by getting enough water, close to 4 pounds GONE. I'll say it louder for the newbies in the back - DON'T SLACK ON YOUR WATER KIDS!!!! LOL

    Here's some food porn:

    Monday -
    Baked chicken thigh with mashed taters and chicken gravy made from chicken drippings and BONE BROTH, super yummy - and then some corn on the cob - finished with a pint of Halo Top
    Cals - 1197
    Def - 996

    Tuesday -
    Chicken thigh meat from the bone broth process with tomatos, ranch, bacon "wraps" on romaine, dessert was a peach, some strawberries and blueberries.
    Cals - 1252
    Def - 804
    66dz4ftxn5a6.png


    I'll reiterate - note the deficit was 200 cals smaller yesterday, but I got my water in. I didn't officially weigh yesterday but at home I saw a GAIN from Monday. Granted it was higher carb, but my water also sucked. Long story short, I gotta keep on top of my water like WHOA LOL

    T MInus 8 more work days til the big move! WOOT WOOT!!

    Have a super day kids!

    Thank you darling! He really is the cutest! He'll look like that forever too :D That's why I love Persians...they never lose their "kitten" look <3

    I agree...I'm not doing ANY extended fast and I'm JUST back on OMAD today...I'm keeping the cals over 1000 as to not stress my body and should still see mild losses as I settle into maintenance with toning. Once I'm at the lower end of my range and enter TRUE maintenance, I'll up my cals to closer to my TDEE :)

    Wohoo to 151👍👏❤️
    When you talk about water, how much do you consume each day? I try to drink 1,200 litre minimum. I think I going to hit a plateau again. 😞

    Your food looks delicious 😋👍

    Thank ya JP!!! I don't know how much equates to a liter but I shoot for a MIN of a gallon which is 128 oz :)

    If I get under 100, I hold onto salt/water weight like nobody's business LOL

    Dang ok... I really need to stop slacking with my water intake! lol I dunno if I can do a gallon (I'd never leave the bathroom), but you've really inspired me to make more of an effort to drink more.

    And Bubs is so darn cute! Look at that smooshy little face. The long ear hairs are the cutest! lol

    LMFAOOOOOOOOO the ear "tufts" are my Mama's fave too :D They never go away either LOL - he's just the BEST <3

    And seriously, if I'm not in the habit it takes a SIGNIFICANT CONSCIOUS EFFORT for me to get to a gallon...and yes, I have to time it right because I pee a LOT but it's worth it IMO. For 4 pounds overnight? Yes please :)

    It'll be interesting to see how the scale behaves if I do well again today with it...I'd love to see sub 150 this week :) Without my normal extended fast that probably won't happen but we'll see - I'd take 150.X Friday without complaints :)

    OMG, when I did my calculations on your 128 oz, its around 3.7 litres. Good golly, I am way way behind when it comes to water. I am struggling to even get my water up to 2 litres (67.6 oz) as I also drink tea besides water. I really should up my game when it comes to water intake... fingers cross! Cheering you on to 150 or even 149!!! :+1:<3:)

    That is so awesome on your losses and I agree the water sometimes does the magic trick to just get you all flushed out!!! I am sure you will be in the 140s soon and ready to just relax a bit and maintain!! AWESOME dear!!! <3

    Great job! Are you now fully in maintenance?
  • mistymeadows2005
    mistymeadows2005 Posts: 3,737 Member
    Eh, I'm calling it practice maintenance right now because I'm still eating under my TDEE/eating at a deficit...just not my normal aggressive schedule where I was losing 2+ pounds a week...more like 500-1000 cal deficit instead which still sounds like a lot actually LOL - oh well, I'm taking it pretty easy and no extended fasting. Doing my toning but going to have to add some weight(s) if I really want to see a change in my body SHAPE. It's so hard RN with my schedule but come the 1st it'll get much easier :)

    Happy Thursday Kids!

    It's rainy and dreary here, but I'M in a great moooooooooood!!! Got some good sleep, had a nice filling dinner...still hangin' in a 18:6 pattern...eating my first cals around 4 pm and eating dinner round 10pm.

    Last night's dinner (forgot to take pics) - 6 oz shrimp with garlic, peas (which I mean earlier when I said corn on the cob...that was the night before LOL), and a GIANT salad with Romaine, Broccoli, a whole tomato, and crack ranch. Wrapped up with a pint of Halo Top Black Cherry.
    Cals - 1346
    Def - 837

    Daily Weight:
    151 even

    SUPER happy with that - 0.8 overnight, which surprised me because the Halo Top isn't particularly low carb. DID get my water in again, and plan to do so today as well :) I'll have fruit tonight for dessert so I might even see 149.8 tomorrow which would be exciting B)

    As noted above, going to start adding some serious weights to my toning - body weight alone isn't going to get me the re-comp I want and Ced has some nice ones at home...it'll be easier come July when I'm home most of the time LOL

    Hope everyone has a fabulous day and I love ya's! :love:
