Hope all the moms had a happy Mother's Day.

Took the wife to see the play Anastasia this past weekend in Times Square, NYC. The play was FANTASTIC! After the play, we met up with her mother, sister and brother and had dinner at Virgil's BBQ a block away from the theater.

Food and family - good times.

Came back home to the same ole same ole, however I did kick off the week with a 25 hr fast [Sun 7:30 PM - Mon 8:30 PM (I was going for a 48 hr but I smelled something in the toaster over late, darn kids, and I pulled the plug on my fast)]. My buddy is @ the 33rd hr of his fast and I should have been at the 35th hr but oh well, I will be stronger next time.

By the way, this fast was the easiest because of adding 1 tsp of pink salt and 2 tsp of Potassium Chloride (AKA No Salt) to 1L of Evian Spring Water) for electrolyte balance. Did this help? I believe so. The hunger pangs that occurred through the day were brief and manageable with a quick sip of the this concoction coupled with a 5 minute walk.

I am off again on another fast that started at 9 am determined to get further than the last attempt. I will get this.

put me in Coach-I'm ready! Glad you enjoyed your trip! You are kicking butt on these fast. I do 16:8 and it truly is easy-it has almost turned into 23:1 and I like it. OFF SUBJECT NOTE NOW-you know that old saying that said, "Don't hate the player-hate the game"-My come back is- "I'm not a player-I'm the Coach!" (drop mic) LoL

Are you still doing the OMAD along with the fasting? How is that working out for you?

Thanks all. @bizzybee38, although we are mostly settled in our new house, I am pouring some $$$ in it an it is a little stressful but that is no excuse. I am getting back OMAD and fasting. This time I got a fasting buddy in the office and I just messaged him "1 days, 15 hours, 12 minutes and 31 seconds" -- that is his current number I copied and pasted from my spreadsheet. Go friend go! @maxie4, I am enjoying spring for sure. enjoy! @jimmiepop, #grindtime @marshakanady, LET'S GO! - Tomorrow I will post up a longer fast number, fingers crossed. My re-feed wasn't too bad last night, around 1700 calories. My next refeed will be the same or more but will be a keto refeed. @momma6224 Virgil’s was YUM YUM YUM, only had one drink, one meal no dessert. @HCB, electrolytes are the secret weapon. #letsgoteamFS
