  • Unflavored liquor, club soda, whatever flavor MiO you like, and a lemon or lime
  • Guacamole, chia pudding, salads with olive oil dressing, cheese if not vegan, shirataki noodles, mushroom burgers
  • May be too late now, but I made devilled egg salad to get thru my 1 week egg fast. Not sure how ur doing it but if cheese and fats are allowed with the eggs u can do egg salad and chaffles to have some variation from boiled eggs
  • Even OMAD dry fasting isn't working. I'm gonna have to fast continuously until I reach my goal weight.. probably have to fast forever
  • I'm feeling hopeless :( I do all this fasting and it seems any time I eat ANYTHING I go right back to square one! Yesterday I dry fasted all day and ate 2 boiled eggs, some quest chips and 2 cups of green beans with a tablespoon of fat to cook... HOW am I gaining weight from that?? I merely THOUGHT about ordering takeout…
  • I'm trying to extend my dry fasts, the past few days have been Ramadan style, having a meal and water at night. I want to be losing a little faster, gonna try to go the next few days before breaking
  • @KateNkognito Ya, a cheat day every week or 2 used to give a big loss afterwards. Hasn't been happening that way for me lately, must have se healing to do first. My stats: 30 yr old female. 5ft 5.5in. Current weight 224, highest weight 233, goal weight 150. I gave myself 9 months to get to goal, but the past few months…
  • @A_Dabauer yes, I'm dry fasting because it's 3x as effective as water fasting. I'm well informed of it's effects and benefits, not worried about fasting too long
  • False alarm! My weight went down to almost a pound less than what it was before the fast food. Still on track for my birthday :)
  • I broke down and had burgerking last night, after almost 2 days of dry fasting... My tummy did not like me afterwards lol! Had a strong craving for ice cream, after watching a TV shows where someone has a huge bowl of it. Ordered a shake, and food just to meet minimum delivery requirement. They didn't even have the shake…
  • If u aren't hungry don't eat. U could probably benefit from a day of fasting for the nausea, give ur gut a lil break to heal
  • My weight loss has come to a halt... I also gave up on any sort of healthy eating during my monthly curse, so I'm starting over yet again tomorrow. I think my body's set point is now over 200lb because it's so hard to lose the weight and SOOOO easy to gain it back! Didn't used to be like this :s I can gain 5 lb from a meal…
  • I'm here! New Orleans just opened up this morning. I'm finally getting a Mani pedi :) well, waiting to get it...
  • I know that's unrelated to fasting lol! I'm also doing ADF and keto. No slip ups this week
  • My puppy gets his last round of shots tomorrow and I can finally take him to the park!!! :D looking forward to outdoor time that doesn't require me holding him the whole time
  • Thanks to all the takeout stress eating, I've undone my weight loss progress yet again.. I have 2 HealthyWage challenge deadlines at the end of this week, and I'm about 10lb away from my goal :'( Fasting is my only hope now, IDK if it's even possible to win at this point
  • @Meghan509 I plan to book some trips while flights are super cheap because of the virus LOL! Yesterday the 1st positive case was reported here in Louisiana... I didn't think it would make it here, let alone be in my city :/
  • Went about 42 hours dry, except morning coffee ;) dropped 3lb I'm that time. To break I ended up eating a carnivore meal, not because I was hungry, I actually felt fine. I just kept thinking about how I wanted to eat something! My willpower is lower than it used to be :( even when I'm not uncomfortable with hunger or…
  • Broke my fast with eggs yesterday, and again today. Guess I'm doing OMAD? LOL no, I have to get back to fasting to the 15th. Gonna do dry fasting to kill my appetite, then switch back to water. Something about drinking water makes my stomach growl if I haven't eaten, like my stomach expects food. But not when I dry fast.…
  • Last time I posted I said I was gonna fast thru the rest of February... I did not :/ But I decided Monday that I'd aim to fast to the 15th, to get back on track for my Healthywage challenge. After the Disney trip this past weekend I was over 10lbs behind projection to reach my goal. This morning is day 3, down 7lb from…
  • How much do you have to lose? How long have you been in the same eating plan? May be time to switch things up to make ur body think it's ok to let go of more weight. Lots of things to try. Decrease eating window, increase calories 1 day, increase carbs 1 day, egg fast few days, eat vegan few days, alternate day fasting, no…
  • I guess we can only post 1 pic at a time lol! Anyway, here's some chocolate and garlic herb chaffles! The savory ones are for sandwiches, sweet I eat plain or with peanut butter
  • I plan to start a long term fast. At least 5 days. I need to break my food addiction And what better way than no food. I usually do IF and have done a couple 5 day fasts before. Now I have a HEAFTY goal of dropping over 20lb by the end of this month. I know it's unlikely but I'll take whatever I can get from the long fast.…
  • Spices for variety, bacon and eggs, mayo for egg salad or tuna salad, avocado for keto side or guacamole, feta, cheddar and mozzarella, mio, olive oil which I use to roast everything on foil and avoid dishes to wash
  • It definitely got worse last night, but today feels fine! Gonna make sure I don't push myself like that again, at least for a while
  • You can try an egg fast or water fast. You can try a higher carb day then fast day to trick your body into letting go of more weight
  • Well, I broke the booze fast last night. Had dinner and drinks with the girls. Today is parade day, I'm debating getting a bottle of something to share. I didn't gain weight from last night, but I didn't lose either. Not sure if I can stay dry thru Mardi gras season. I'm on a slippery slope!
  • This Saturday is Chewbacchus parade in New Orleans... I'm supposed to be part of one of the krewes but I haven't kept up with everything since November :( I'm considering staying dry another month, thru Mardi Gras season. I'm nowhere near my goal, don't even feel like myself and don't feel like celebrating in public
  • Yesterday was my first attempt at water fasting since last summer, been doing intermittent fasting working down to OMAD. I ended up eating macadamia nuts at midnight... I technically lasted over 24 hours, but I wish I had just gone to sleep and got another 8 hours of fasting!
