  • So Wednesday I ate between work and auditions. Stopped at Wegmans and got way too much food at their hot bar. But their shrimp with cream sauce is amazing, and I'm a sucker for dumpling. Also an eggroll, an artichoke flan (surprisingly good), and some sautéed mushrooms. And then we had auditions from 6 to 10. And then the…
  • I think that's what I liked best about it, the not worrying too much about food the day after. I was super busy all day Tuesday. Work from 8 to 4, then we auditioned kids from 5 to 9:30. By the time I got out of the shower when I got home it was time for bed. I didn't really even miss that I hadn't eat. And I really felt…
  • I'm also a shorty. 5'2", 5'3" on a good day. I carry most of my weight around my middle. My current goal is 125, which would put in in the middle of the healthy BMI range. I'm sure some of that 6lbs was water, but I'll take what I can get!
  • Hey gang. Fasting is still going strong. I'm at 43 hours, and I think I'll break my fast for dinner before auditions, which will give me just short of 48. This will be my longest fast ever, and I'm amazed at how good I feel. I'm not really hungry. Though I want to eat because I love food. But I feel lighter and I actually…
  • Dubliner is so good! Kerrygold is the brand that makes it. It's kind of sweet, but has a little bit of tang. It's not a very strong cheese. But it's great by itself and is even better on crackers. It also has a fun texture, with those little crystal granules in it.
  • I second a splurge day. Sometimes when I seem to have stalled, the extra food does the trick to release whatever my body is holding on to. Worth a shot?
  • Hey everyone! I'm going to catch up with you all soon, because you're awesome! I have auditions for my show starting tonight. I'm really excited. We've filled all but one time slot, so we should have a great turn out. Last night we had steak tacos and some Dubliner cheese. If you like cheese, this a good one. And because…
  • Oh man, has it been a week. I am almost out of words to describe it. There was work drama with a job I didn't even have (and tried to turn down, twice). My mom's sweet dog has a cancerous tumor. And it's negative degrees out. I also got my period, and somehow, I am always surprised that I never lose weight on my period.…
  • Thanks for sharing all the info! Glad your doctors seem to be working with you really well. Also, your attitude is amazinng.
  • That heat sounds awful! Hope you're staying safe!
  • Humidity is the worst!
  • Hello everyone! Happy Monday! Man, what a weekend. The show opened on Thursday, and the kids killed it. I work with a high school group, but we really push them to work at a professional level. I'm super proud of what they accomplished. Though the adult staffed designed the production, nearly everything was executed by the…
  • You can absolutely still lose weight with OMAD and walking. That's all I usually do, and I've lost 25 lbs so far
  • Hello guys! Today has been crazy. I'm currently sitting in tech for my show, waiting for the next part to start. We open tomorrow. The kids are dong a great job, but man these days are crazy. Though I did hit my step goal yesterday and I'm pretty sure I will again today. I'm feeling better. Less achey mostly, though still…
  • Exactly! you've got this!
  • Welcome! I have the most trouble when I'm home, too. And it's the same thing. I want to eat because I know food is there, not because I'm hungry. I have a problem with caffeine, too, but soda was my vice. I went cold turkey and wen through caffeine withdrawal. If you're looking to cut back or cut out your caffeine, try…
  • Your food always looks so good! And I'm telling myself the same thing bad foods in the beginning of the week (or weekend), cleaned up and losing by Friday. We've got this!
  • I definitely prefer fall. And it is brutally cold in states right now (where I am, it was in the single digits yesterday, with a windchill in the negatives). You're doing great! New year is a great time to refresh and restart and set everything else behind. Even though we're trying to lose weight, you still have to live…
  • You're doing awesome and listening to your body which is great. I'm curious how your doctor tested your metabolism. I'm just super interested in how that was done. I've never gotten mine. You've got this!
  • Right? And I'm incapable of cooking for 2 people, so we were throwing so much stuff away. Definitely cost effective for us in the long run. If you ever want to try it, let me know and I'll set you up with a code for money off. No worries if not! But I had a friend do it for me so I'm all for passing along good karma. And…
  • Hey gang! Friday was awesome. Great food, great friends. Saturday I had an event for work. It was a beer and wine fundraising event. Which was also really fun, but that was the firs time I had drank in a while. Sunday I went to yoga, but didn't feel great. Wound up not sticking to one meal a day and eating chips and gauc.…
  • I failed you all. No pictures of the salmon because I inhaled it. But it was delicious! Jason also won't eat salmon skin, so I get his too which makes me extra happy. I also had some cheese and sopprasetta to get me up to about 1100 cals. All of the low cals this week has been in preparation for tonight. I run a dungeons…
  • Hey, sometimes you just need nachos. And you're still at loss! That's great. One of the things I like best is how flexible OMAD is, to allow for those nights. We may be losing weight but we still have to live a little. Have fun this weekend! Getting back on track is what's important. And now that the Eagles are out, I…
  • 2 pounds is awesome! And I can't wait to see pictures of your food. That sounds so good. And those high calorie days are such a good balance to the fasting.
  • You're doing awesome!
  • Nuggets are the best, with a side of fries. That's the only thing I ever get at McDs.
  • Sending you good vibes! You've got this!
  • It looks like you did not make crispy bacon, and as a fellow chewy bacon person, I appreciate you.
  • I'm always interested to see the natural fluctuations we have, and how different food can impact it. Also, now I want hot chocolate.
