Summary of Week 1

 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.
