I have been terrible about posting lately! The RBS (Ridiculously Big Salad) for OMAD (One meal a day) has been going good. I try to do a 48 hour fast weekly, but usually every other week. We have been traveling lots and seem to be super busy, but the OMAD has not been a problem.
I find it interesting that I have always enjoyed salads, but not a huge veggie person. My husband loves every vegetable on earth, not me… My salad has always been more meat and cheese than lettuce in my life….
I thought I would throw in some pictures, since I don’t have anything super exciting to say!!! It seems even if I fix a bunch of other veggies – cole slaw, asparagus, zucchini noodles – a few of the vegetables I like. I still want to have a salad, so I fix a little one. It’s just like my meal isn’t complete now unless I have a salad.
During our vacation I always carried a bag of lettuce with us in a cooler, that way I could add to any salad I bought drive thru or if I got a lettuce wrap burger, add a salad to it. BUT I do the same thing when we are going out to lunch now that we are home – if we are going in to Phoenix (about 35 mins a way), I have lettuce in a cooler with my handy blue bowl. 🙂
I have been experimenting lately with some sugar/grain free deserts that my husband eats any time but if I taste, it’s only during my one hour window! I made some apple crisp the other day that was amazing to look at – I couldn’t wait to taste it the next day. Well, that was a mistake. After a 48 hour fast I had a LARGE serving of apple crisp and then a salad. I didn’t even get through the salad before I had to run for the bathroom. I had 20 minutes of diarrhea immediately. So that wasn’t the way to break a fast. Cleaned me out good. That was the end of my lunch. I had my salad first today with asparagus and an egg – THEN I had a small piece of apple cake (sugar/grain free). Today was good. Stomach was fine. I only had diarrhea two other times in 4 months. I wish I could remember if it was after a 2 day fast. I need to pay attention to that. 🙂
