The battle is real. It's been a rough couple days. My FIL passed on Thursday. Not covid related. We've been helping to take care of him for the last two years. We also thought one of the grown kids was exposed so we had to quarantine. Turned out to be a negative but better safe than sorry for sure! It's been a stressful time but this too shall pass. Trying to hang on to what's normal and take comfort in routine.6 -

You appear to be having good results by moving up to 2 meals a day. We always have to experiment to see what works best for us as individuals.2 -
I'm in. I'm Chris. 70 years old. Had back surgery last June and hip surgery last month. Used to do 5 miles a day w/DH but I've been grounded for a very, very long time. Getting back to it tho. Weight is going crazy with the shelter in place but I'll get back to that too.

Dawn, it appears that 2 meals give me better results. At the end of April, I'll go back over each day's food diary and see what I come up with. I usually eat according to when I feel hungry. OMAD has not been planned. If I feel hungry by 2pm or 4pm, I eat, so that will be a 2 meal day.3 -

NOTES - the Easter chocolates and wine have caught up with me. Now I’m really gaining. Today I’m starting up on IF 16:8 again. I’m still doing my 5k jog each morning and trying to keep up with my water intake. I’m struggling with logging my food. I start off ok them I stop logging my meals. I’ll try to do better with this now that I’m back on IF.5 -

Thank you. It’s not been easy since all this craziness has started. We’ve been in confinement for a month now here in France and the president said last night that we will continue to be in confinement until May 10th at least. I’ve really struggled with emotional and stress eating. Up til now I hadn’t really gained but now the trend is going up. Not good. I can do this.6 -

I'm trying not to be so hard on myself for eating everything in sight this past weekend.
Working on bringing things back down...
FYI: My BF has been back and forth between 33% and 35% for 4 months. My goal is 30% and we will see what happens. I tend to carry my weight around my waist and hips.
I have seen 32% once in March - on my way!

NOTES - back on IF since yesterday and and I logged all my food. I went over but I’m just happy to have logged everything. I’ve also been dealing with a UTI. I was able to skype with my doctor last night and he prescribed me an antibiotic. Hope this passes soon cause it’s been hell for a couple of days now.
