Feel better Kyle !!
Kyle's Journal
Good morning Everyone,
I called the doctor yesterday afternoon after my symptoms seemed to worsen. They said a flu is expected to last about two weeks but I could have something else going on and to come in. I am going in later this afternoon. My throat is still swollen and sore and my ears are hurting. I know those parts are all connected… so, we’ll see if it’s flu related.
After reading your comments, I didn’t fast yesterday. I thought it may add more stress to my system than it needs right now.
Hope everyone his having a good day! Happy Fasting or feeding!
Feel better soon!
Went to see the doctor. I have tonsillitis. He gave me antibiotics to take for the next ten days. Glad I went back to see him, I’m so ready to be on the mend. Looks like I have at least ten days of meals before I can start fasting again.
I’m sidelined for a bit but will be checking on everyone else. Hope you all are doing well.
OUTCH! I hope they heal up soon! I had to have my tonsils out as an adult and it was not fun! But I also couldn’t eat for a month… Not the best way to fast!
Good you checked it out! Hope the recovery is speedy!!
I hope you feel better soon! Rest up
Good morning!
Woke this a.m feeling like I am improving. I think the antibiotics are working. Decided to jump on the scale as I was certain I had made it to the 140’s…
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I was SO close to the 140’s. I’m frustrated with myself. In my mind I have been eating much less but I know I have not been tracking what I’m eating or when. It’s on me. The doctor said I need to take my meds with food (2 times a day). Maybe I can do mindful 2MAD. I’m glad I haven’t gone back to the 160’s for a long time now… but I really need to move out of the 150’s. Stretchy pajamas 24/7 do not help my sense of weight loss.
That’s my rant… my own fault. Working on the new goal of discipline in eating.
Hope everyone is doing well, Happy Fasting or Feeding Friends!
Kyle, that ladies face literally made me laugh outloud … I so know that feeling … glad you got meds and moving towards health again !! Perhaps eat a small soup for one meal and OMAD for the second one. Hang in there! You’ll be in the 140’s before you know it!!!
. You know I’m rootin for u in every way !!
I had gone to 184.5 on Monday
I was 171 less than a month ago.
2 days on this fast and I’m back to 177.5
I think I’m on way to good progress on this fast!
I think I will amaze and shock myself if I make it all 21 days.
I did enough 5 day fasts that I don’t feel like I can even start counting until after day 5.
Anyway, I got so close to the 160’s - I’ll be happy to see it in the next couple of weeks.
There’s always someone behind you.
Its such a rollercoaster, Miramar! But I’m glad we have each other for the ride.
I’m proud of you jumping on a 21 day fast. I look forward to checking out your journey. I know you’re a pro at this point and love the insight you have to offer.
We’re gonna make our goals for the Solstice challenge!
Still on my antibiotics over here. Have been doing 2Mad, although I’m gonna try and switch to OMAD from today on. We’ll see how my stomach handles meds w/o a second meal. Have about a week to go then I’m SO ready to hop into a fast. Maybe a 5 -10 day.
Hope everyone is doing well fasting or feeding!
Have a good weekend!
Glad your on the mend Kyle !! I always feel like a million bucks once a flu passes !! Wish I felt like that everyday Tee hee. I check your journal daily to see how your doing ! I’m OMADing it for now but gearing up for something more, just not sure what !
Please check if you can have your antibiotics on am empty stomach and then plan meals around it. Dont worry about OMAD or 2MAD whilst on antibiotics… Just saying from experience that antibiotics can really mess up your gut… esp if its empty. Pls take care and get well soon!
So, I attempted to go w/o food on my medication yesterday and it really tore my stomach up. So, back to having my meds with meals… less than a week to go.
In the meantime, I have difficulty finding authentic extended water fasts on Youtube but they really inspire me (the ones that aren’t gimmicky, anyway). They seem to block the smaller accounts from most searches… but I did manage to find one that is currently on-going. I believe she is on day 28 or 29… Anyway, I’ve only gotten to her day 8 so far, but enjoying her videos. Her username on Youtube is Saffron Kyro if you want to look her up. She is doing a 40 day fast.
Hope everyone is doing well on the fasting or feeding Sunday!!!
In my best singsong voice:
I really want to fast… I really want to fast… five more days but I really want to fast…
That is all.
Happy Monday. Hope everyone is doing good Feeding or Fasting!
. That sweet little girl, can you imagine the personality she must have even to pull off that little moment ? Ha!! Love it !
Good morning Friends,
Today is Amazon Prime day and I splurged at got a new FitBit at a $50.00 discount. Amazon is really something because I bought it around 7am and it arrived at 11am!! CRAZY. Anyway… I’m all excited about this little device. It tracks heart rate, stairs, food, calories burned, sleep, steps… and it lets you program your goals to keep track of. I’m a visual person and I think this will be helpful to keep me on track. Also wonder how my heart rate, calories burned and sleep will be affected while I fast. Anyway… wanted to share my excitement!
I’m going to check up on your journals now. Hope everyone is doing well Fasting or Feeding!!
EDITED TO ADD: It tracks calories burned whether exercising or not! Thats my main excitement. LOL
Hi Kyle! Oh that’s so cool, I just may get one too ! … sending you happy good wishes for your day !!
Thank you Stacia!!
Hope you have a great day too!!
