Alright so you will see in the last post I made that I weighed 245.6 pounds, and today, even after walking for over 2 hours I weighed 246.4 pounds. I will explain where I think I screwed up here. I also think that since I have been following the OMAD diet for almost a year now my body is getting tired of fasting possibly OR it could just be the food cravings still lingering in my system since I only stopped that antipsychotic medication on May 29th this year and it's only been about two weeks.
Today I started off with getting out of bed around 12PM and having a shower to get ready to go for a walk, and then before I started my walk I went to Mcdonalds to get a Sausage and Cheese sandwich with a small Orange juice and that gave me enough energy to go on this long walk for over 2 hours to a local grocery store. Once I made it to the grocery store I bought the stuff I needed and then headed home.
I did weigh myself before leaving on this walk and I was 246.4 pounds and yeah I'll be honest I am of course disappointed with that result but yesterday I did have a few more drinks (alcohol) and some food late at night so that's probably what caused me to gain weight instead of lose weight. This is where I go back to the drawing board and figure things out so I can improve the next day and the day after that.
What I think will work better for me is to do what I did before, which is fast and not eat anything until around 3:30PM or 4PM and after that one meal I head out to the store again on that long 2-3 hour walk and come back to relax for the rest of the night. The last 2-3 days (including today) has been going for a walk much earlier in the afternoon and having a small snack before going out on that long walk.
I wanted to try and get that walk for the day over with so that I could do more things in the afternoon once I got back home. It makes sense if you think about it and can be more rewarding but I just don't see the numbers working for me right now so I think I might go with the method that I started out doing in the first place.
Tomorrow, on June 14th, I am going to eat around 3:30PM or 4PM then head out for a 2-3 hour walk and this way I only have one large meal and that's it instead of a large meal including a snack in the day. I will try to report back here tomorrow night to see if the scale gives me the right numbers and maybe I will weigh myself after eating and going for that walk.
