    @jadepearl, like many during 2020-21, I ate poorly and more than I should have. I gained 12 pounds and spent my days in sweats! Of course, for much of 2020, there wasn’t anywhere to go, but I was still kicking myself. Since then, slowly, I’ve lost 8 of my pandemic pounds with intermittent fasting. Four pounds to go. It doesn’t sound like much, but I am sure you can relate that unless you’re fairly tall, even five pounds can make the difference between clothes that fit well and clothes that don’t. So I’m working on that last four! It may take me a few months, though. The last pounds are always the hardest for me.

    Your meals always look delicious, by the way.

    Thank you :) I try to cook as healthy as possible. Same here...before the covid, I managed to get down to 52kg something and then wham! bam! covid came. I gained back and was 62.9kg at my heaviest. I am back on OMAD and trying again. I am pretty short 159cm so I know how a few pounds can really make a huge difference. KUTGW👍

    I managed to be good yesterday. Also, keep drinking water as I felt that I took too much salty stuff for the past few days. Drank 3L by 9pm.

    Weekends once again...
    Costco, fast food, etc...

    I realized that whenever I eat at Costco Food Court with my family, I tend to put on weight. However, become Tue onwards, my weight goes back down. Oh well, at least I have a nice meal with my family. I will just call it my cheat day👨‍👩‍👦😁

    Had been on cheat days for the Christmas celebrations! Told myself that I should just have fun and enjoy myself. Oh well, another round to go this week as its New Year celebration. From 2 Jan onwards, its OMAD time once again. I have gained a little and went back up to 59kg something.

    Really hope that 2023 will be the year that I get down to my GW and then I will maintain forever! Made a huge mistake in Nov-Dec 2019 where I got down to my GW but when covid came, my weight went back up :(

    Weight went back up... oh well! Holidays = eat with family & relatives = weight gain. Will just put it as "cheat days" and up onto the wagon I go for 2023! Let's do this!

    I find it hard to say no to my favorite holiday foods. But it’s January and the cookies and cakes are all gone, so staying on track will be easier. I did OMAD yesterday and plan to do so through Saturday, when we have a houseguest coming so will have to be more flexible. But for me, just four days of OMAD a week keeps my weight at least stable, and sometimes a loss, too. Hope you’re doing well, @jadepearl!

    @Nevadaden - Happy New Year 2023! <3:) Yup, its indeed January and its OMAD time once again. That's good to hear that you have found the formula to stabilize and lose weight ;):+1: I am trying my best to get my weight down and then try my hardest to maintain forever :smiley: Did that in Dec 2019 but failed to maintain. Hope 2023 will be THE year :)

    Hope that I will now stay in the 58kg region and slowly but surely move into the 57kg region :)

    Things went down hill from Saturday onwards. I had nasty cravings for kimchi noodles and I gave in. I ate kimchi noodles till Monday. So, my whole OMAD went down the drain. Now that I am back up on to the wagon, am trying again. Somehow, when I get down to 58kg something, I sabotage myself... sigh! :(

    Oh well.. lets do this again. Am going to keep trying till I succeed.
