Sigh. Weight stuck another day. Not sure what's going on. 2nd day no laxatives and only one small BM since then at this point so maybe holding some water weight here? Stomach felt pretty good all day yesterday. Sore at bed time that I attribute to some constipation. I'm going to try OMAD again today to try to shake things up a bit for my system. It's a big salad only day today too so that will be a change from a bit of a routine. Hopefully that gets a party started in my digestive system! If I feel a big need to eat something later today I have some pre cooked bacon I can munch on. I had really good activity yesterday so certainly no issue there.

This is a really big bad point in my progress for me. 2 years ago when I got to 230 and stuck, I gave in to my worst eating habits, addictions and gained back 53 lb.

I will not let that happen again. I've affirmed I'm still in keto. I have not had a cheat meal or day of any kind. Sometimes from what I've read that can shake things up a bit. As it happens, on Friday I'm going to a bbq that may be a "mindful" cheat event for me. By that I mean I still intend to monitor my carbs as I don't want to get kicked out of ketosis. My basic meal will be a strip loin, grilled asparagus and a salad, plus a few glasses of diluted red sangria. That puts me at about 40g of carbs, my highest since before my fast. If there is something potatoes or dessert, I have in moderation with a plan to stay below 80g of carbs for the meal. We'll see how that rocks my boat!

Failing all that I am contemplating a 2 day fast but mentally I'm not ready for it. Maybe not physically either. Now, May 8th is my last day of work before I'm laid off and then I intend to take a much needed break. Between CV19, the will I be laid off or not stresses and the extended fasting I need a break for my mental well being and reflection. I feel I could go into a 2 or 3 day fast easier again if I wasn't working.

Take it day by day.
