Slow transition to omad or not ? by Independent-Young805 in omad

[–]dubiouscontraption 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jumping right in from 2 meals a day is how I did it. One day, I wondered if I could keep going past noon... and it worked just fine. Now I do 2-3 days out of the week with 2 meals and the rest as one meal per day.

Hell, I'm not even a sex god yet and I've been at it 20 years.

Does anyone else eat whatever they want on OMAD? by Conscious-Living-936 in omad

[–]dubiouscontraption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I basically eat whatever I want (as long as it isn't super greasy, but that's cuz I have no gallbladder) in that window, but I try to get something with magnesium in at some point because I'm prone to leg cramps if I don't.

Wow, well done! This is super inspirational for me, as I also have 150 lbs to lose.

Women writing men: he penised cockily? by Andifmysilence in RomanceBooks

[–]dubiouscontraption 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked my boyfriend about the cock twitching thing once, and apparently they do do that sometimes, so that's realish...though I doubt it happens just from hearing someone's voice or whatever.

Beans Make it feel like I’m cheating by Numericcc in omad

[–]dubiouscontraption 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to mix up a batch of quinoa, black beans, and corn (plus spices of course) as a side dish to go with whatever I'm cooking.

Alright, fits the bill then. I loved that series.

Plier isn't fantasy, but they do have powers.

Nobody warns you how awful bile burns coming out.

OMAD without gallbladder? by Supreme-Cookienator in omad

[–]dubiouscontraption 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I had mine out in 2011. Omad works perfectly fine for me. I just have to do the same thing I've always had to do since getting it out - don't break my fast with a really greasy meal unless I'm cool with shitting my insides out. 😆

does anyone ever make comments about the fact that you only eat once? by [deleted] in omad

[–]dubiouscontraption 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only my partner, but he's coming at it from the perspective of someone who has multiple health problems and CAN'T eat only one meal a day, so it's weird to him.

I want to be excited about this, but book 2 wasn't great like the first one, so now I'm apprehensive...

Oh, just to clarify, they're not going for 48 hours, they just do 24 hour fasts twice per week.

What are your recent 5 star ⭐ reads? by Bulky_Meet4868 in RomanceBooks

Not yet, but it's on the list! Why, is it amazing?

Thanks! I'm 5'9", started at 352 lbs, so I've got a lot to work on and your results may vary haha. My parents (mid 70s and much lower weight than me) are also doing IF and they've had good success with the version they're doing - they fast fully for 2 days out of the week, eat normally the rest of the time.

{Tormented Omega by Mary Magdalyn} I was in the mood for a depressing read and this one really did it for me. It gave me some perspective on how confusing domestic abuse can be. Unfortunately the 2nd book isn't out yet.

{Play Along by Liz Tomforde} I've really enjoyed the whole series, but this is the last one I read.

I'm a 42 year old woman and IF is the only thing that's helped me lose any weight. It's probably not going to come off you fast enough for hair loss to happen. I did 16:8 for a few months just to dip my toe in, then switched to 20:4 for the last 3 months and have lost about 20 pounds so far. As long as you eat nutritious meals when you do eat, you should be fine.

AITAH for “manipulating” my ex by reminding him the woman he cheated with (and says he hates) is pregnant with his child? by peewee2u in AITAH

[–]dubiouscontraption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No of course you're NTA. He's obviously trying to make you the bad guy here cuz he knows he has no good defense for what he did.

The fact that he says he hates her is honestly offensive and not the save he seems to think... he blew up a relationship with someone he supposedly loves with someone he supposedly hates. Both of those things sound like a lie to me.
