I lost 5 pounds.
I felt physically good most of the time. By Friday, however, I was feeling a deep hunger. By deep hunger, I do not mean the sensations that accompany low blood sugar or an empty stomach. No drowsiness (I used to yawn when I got hungry) irritability or inability to focus. No growling stomach. Subjective energy level was maybe a bit less than what I was accustomed to but well within normal limits.
I felt deep hunger and it took the form of massive fruit consumption on Friday and massive protein consumption on Saturday. On both days, I also consumed 44 pretzels. IThe deep hunger was satisfied.
Fortunately, I was 100 % compliant with My New Supplement Regimen. That is key.
Call this Phase 1. It was as much a testing and feeling out phase rather than a formal protocol. Phase 1 will conclude on either Day 8 or Day 9. Then, a more formal, rigorous program will take place.
New Protocol:
1. 100 % compliance with My New Supplement Regimen.
2. Adherence to a daily calorie intake not to exceed 800 calories/day.
3. Adherence to intermittent fasting: 16 hours between meals.
4.. Adherence to OMAD (one meal per day) on most, if not all days.
5. Adherence to extant supplement regimen.
Target weight: 200 pounds.
