Getting back on COMAD (Carnivore + OMAD) after a break can feel like trying to wake up from a heavy sleep. The mental fog, lack of drive, and sluggish mornings hit hard—but the clarity, energy, and control are already returning.
😵💫 The Fog Is Real
Getting back on track feels harder before it feels better.
I’m so glad I’m back on COMAD. I really am. But I forgot how rough the first few days can feel after falling off.
The old feelings came rushing back: hitting snooze, dragging through the day, and needing to force myself to focus. But I know from experience—this passes. And soon, my goals will pull me more than I have to push myself.
The good news? I’m back to writing daily again. It’s a small win—but a win, nonetheless.
Daily Progress
Here’s how I’m doing today:
Weight Loss
| Date | Weight (lbs) |
| Weight Goal | 176.4 (80.0 kg) |
| 8 May 2025 – Worst day | 207.2 (94 kg) |
| 10 May 2025 – Day 1 | 203.5 (92.3 kg) |
| 16 May 2025 – Week 1 | 198.2 (89.9 kg) |
| 17 May 2025 – Day 8 | 196.2 (89 kg) |
| 18 May 2025 – Day 9 | 202.2 (91.7 kg) |
| 19 May 2025 – Day 10 | 205.7 (93.3 kg) |
📉 Today’s Change: +3.5 lbs (1.6 kg)
📉 Total Loss (in 10 days): -1.5 lbs (-.7 kg)
📉 Average Loss Per Day: -0.15 lbs (-0.07 kg)
This gain? Classic rebound. Before my 90+ days on Carnivore, this kind of bounce-back used to happen all the time after a sugar binge.
Lesson learned. If I ever go off-plan again, I’ll make it a nutrient-based break, not a sugar holiday. And no more open-ended eating windows. Eating for 8 hours straight Saturday and Sunday didn’t help either.
Blood Pressure (BP)
| Date | BP – Before Food (Best of 3) | BP – Before Food (Worst of 3) | Average |
| BP Goal | 120/80 | ||
| 12 Apr / 24 Apr 25 – Worst days | 134/86 | 161/88 | 147.5/87 |
| 10 May 25 – Day 1 | 151/86 | 168/88 | 159.5/87 |
| 16 May 25 – Wk 1 | 133/83 | 150/94 | 141.5/88.5 |
| 17 May 25 – Day 8 | 146/97 | 152/97 | 149/97 |
| 18 May 25 – Day 9 | 138/86 | 149/89 | 143.5/87.5 |
| 19 May 20 – Day 10 | 116/73 | 124/76 | 120/74.5 |
💪 Today’s Systolic Change (1st number): -25
💪 Today’s Diastolic Change (2nd number): -13
This is a huge shift—and a good one. My meds used to take weeks to show results. Now? Just one day.
I credit this to all the work I’ve done dropping weight and stabilizing my system. That’s why I keep going. High blood pressure was the most dangerous thing I faced. COMAD helps me control it.
Blood Glucose
| Date | Blood Glucose – Before Food (mmol/L) |
| Blood Glucose Goal | 4.2 |
| 23 Apr 2025 – Worst day | 7.4 |
| 10 May 2025 – Day 1 | 6.4 |
| 17 May 2025 – Week 1 | 4.4 |
| 18 May 2025 – Day 8 | 5.6 |
| 19 May 2025 – Day 9 | 6.8 |
| 19 May 2025 – Day 10 | 6.2 |
📊 Today’s Change: +1.2 mmol/L
📊 Days in Normal Range (3.9–5.6 mmol/L): 5 out of 9
Honestly, with all the sugar I’ve had over the last two days, I expected to be over 7 mmol/L. My meds definitely softened the blow. But this number reminds me: I’m on the edge. And every bite matters.
🌟 Turning the Ship Around
Progress is the reward of discipline.
I’ve been here before. I know what happens next. The fog clears. My energy returns. The cravings fade. And I remember how good it feels to be me, powered by real food, clear goals, and tight boundaries.
The only way to win this long game is to stop starting over.
✅ Stay on the Plan That Works
You don’t have to be perfect—you just have to be consistent. COMAD helps me think clearly, lose weight, and feel strong. Every time I veer off and come back, I’m reminded: it’s not about what you avoid. It’s about what you build. Structure beats struggle, every time.
See You Tomorrow! 😊
Warmly,
Paul
