Day 3 of OMAD and I didn’t make it to dinner. I felt nauseated and dizzy just before 3pm today. I think it was from having a second cup of coffee on an empty stomach. I’m really caffeine sensitive and at the most can only handle two cups a day, any more and I get jittery and my face feels weird. I think two cups on an empty stomach was too much and I’m still getting used to fasting. My lovely colleague baked alfajores, so guess what I broke my fast early with… Cookies! Just one this time, better then yesterdays hoard.

I bought these crackers for a healthier option, in case I feel sick and dizzy again. I hope I don’t need them, but this way I wont get something worse. I had a container of blueberries on the way home. When I did get home, I had a couple cashews and a pickle.

I had the exact same thing for dinner I had yesterday, barley, chickpeas, avocado, and broccoli, with sesame ginger sauce on top. This time I put a big scoop of hummus on top. Right now I’m drinking my third Bubly and thinking about grabbing another pickle.

Does a giant snack before dinner still count as OMAD?

  1. Yeah, too much coffee on an empty stomach isn’t good. How is your other half doing with this? Is he eating what you eat or making himself dinner? I find the biggest problem with eating healthier is the other people in the house who “need” sweets and junk and so it’s in the house, which makes it much harder to resist!
