    Thoughts of today
    Well so my sister in law visit us from France, she will be till Friday, so I will have a lot to cook :)
    It's good although if I was in her place I was panicking a little to fly with the airplane due to corona, but she is more courageous than me so....
    For today OMAD roasted oven country potatoes and pork sausages together with some pickles and some french macaroni as dessert for her and her husband, I am trying to stay away from dessert
    At job busy days but still we do have some spare time, spring has come and we enjoy the flowers and the nice weather - 20 Celsius degrees
    We do not even have to envy to work when outside it is so nice ...
    That's all I think, have a lovely OMAD day!

    That’s so funny Monica - your temperature is exactly what it is here in Melbourne at the start of autumn!

    hello again
    I did not write in the last time as there are hard times here in my town
    The number of corona is increasing, we are all worried, panicked, it is a bad atmosphere everywhere
    I still got to work and try to live a normal life but nothing is as before
    I have not kept Omad just eating haotically and sometimes not eating at all
    I hope to carry on and not get the virus
    In my family there is no case but we have one brother in law ill from cancer and his imunity is not so good and mum who is 78 old and she is more sensible than us
    I hope things will be better but I do not yet see the light
    Hope you are all doing well <3

    Back again
    These days I am working from home, it is good that it keeps me busy
    I lost 6 kilos in these period of time, alternating between fast and Omad
    My family is ok, but the ephidemy is increasing, we have in our country 260 infected, no death yet
    But the peak will be after Easter time
    A lot of people go out, not respecting the rules and we will see what happens
    We have cases imported from Italy,Israel,Germany,Spain but unfortunately they have been in contact with a lot of people, if you imagine on this time somebody making parties of 400 persons or such :( or saying lies that they did not visit any country and than infecting 50 persons
    We have food at home for almost 10 days so I we will stay at home and then we will go again taking the necessary
    Mum is upset saying that is such a pity that on this lovely weather - 20 degrees we stay at home, but what to do?She is 78 and vulnerable to this situation
    My husband is also scared as his business is almost down and I have to ensure the good spirit for him
    .

    Take care all of you and may we pass well these moments!

    Wow, 6 kg loss! Congrats! I am opposite of you. When there's crisis, I eat more :( Glad to hear that there's no death at your side. Till date, we have 5 deaths :( Yes, our business is effect too. Don't know if the government's next move yet...fingers cross that we do not have to close due to coronavirus. Take care <3

    Hello again
    Lost 6 kilos, put back 3 kilos, lost again 3 , put again2 ...
    This is how it goes for me
    I did not keep OMAD but here I am decided again

    We are all healthy except my sister in law from France which is nurse ans she took covid from the hospital, she is at home, but we are worried cause no treatment has been prescribed, she decided to take med by her experience however
    We will see, we pray that she goes well

    Mum is depressive but she is healthy, we are working from home and I work more than usual as we have to monitor everything
    People do not listen to stay at home, especially the old ones, we are very social and we want to socialize but now I do not think there is the moment

    We have gone only once to grocery, now we decided to order meals at home especially that the courier person is only letting the meals in front of yr door , you do not have contact as the meal is paid already by card

    My OMAD today is noodle soup,spinach with peanut butter and fried chicken

    I am wishing you healthy days stay at home enjoy the loved ones be creative be optimistic, it will go sometime!

    So sorry to hear about your SIL <3 Really hope she will recover soon <3 I know what you mean as some people do not listen either over here. They are going to the beach, going camping, etc, etc, etc. So, Stage 3 has been introduced. Take care and stay safe <3

    Today Omad tomatoes, cucumber and chicken made in a pot with garlic and sumac an arab condiment

    Have a sunny and healthy day! <3

    hello again <3
    well my sister in law is negative now and she feels better, I think she had an easier form, a lot of massage with some heat creams did wonders together with the meds
    We are fine , mum also and also all the family and friends
    Working from home, feeling a little sad that outside is so nice- 20 degrees, but we will have time for all these walks
    I think in this period people start to be more creative, have more imagination, find more methods to win the anxiety ore the boredom,some of them start to develop online and find a way to win over unemployment and so on
    We order form home the grocery and for Easter we will also order , there are so many offers
    Omad these days with soups/chicken noodles/peanut butter and spinach/boiled potatoes
    The weight is the same but at least I did not gain

    Have a healthy Omad day <3

    thanks Morena <3
    I started losing again, till now 2 kilos lost since writing
    my program now is one day fast, one day Omad
    Today tomatoes, cheese, boiled eggs and mayo in a salad and soup
    I am in the 23rd day of staying home, I feel good and have hope
    Today I paid the monthly invoices on internet and have plans to read a nice book about the tennis player Djokovic and his gluten free diet which he followed for better sport results

    Have a nice day you all!
