Round 2, Day 21 – One Food A Day – HUGE Wins!

Lately, I’ve been waking up with a heavy feeling in my body—even after a full night’s sleep. I don’t think it’s the sleep. I think it’s the diet. The lack of variety might be slowing my early-morning spark. But once I get out of bed and start moving, something shifts—and I feel alive again. The motivation kicks in strong, and the wins just keep coming.

⚖️ Daily Progress:

Here’s how I’m doing today.

📉 Total Loss (in 21 days): -14.7 lbs (-6.7 kg)
📉 Average Loss Per Day: -0.7 lbs (-0.32 kg)

This is my lowest weight all year—and I feel great about it. Last night I decided to run a little test. I had cheese (both hard and soft) as my one meal to see how it would affect my weight. And guess what? Still dropped weight.

That’s the beauty of this OFAD (One Food A Day) plan. It’s simple, it’s precise, and it shows exactly how my body reacts to small food changes. It’s not easy—it takes more discipline than even fasting—but the results are worth it.

This is exactly where I want to be. Stable. Predictable. Clean. My body is learning, and it’s responding with quiet power.

🧠 Reflections: Simplicity Sharpens Focus

This plan forces clarity—and it rewards it.

Some days, waking up feels slow. But once I’m on my feet, the fog clears. This is more than a diet now—it’s a discipline. And it’s teaching me that one small change can tell me so much about my body.

OFAD isn’t for everyone. It’s precise. It’s strict. It makes you listen. But that’s also what makes it powerful. There’s nowhere to hide from your habits. And that’s how progress happens.

Test One Change at a Time

If you want to see how your body really works, try changing just one thing. Don’t guess. Don’t combine. Just test one shift and track the result. The data will speak—and so will your energy, your mood, and your body’s response.

Let’s keep learning, one clean step at a time.

See You Tomorrow! 😊

Warmly,
Paul

Helping people is what lights me up. I’m a curious soul who loves diving into new ideas, uncovering hidden gems of knowledge and sharing what I find. Sometimes, my scientific side takes over, and I overthink things. But I’ve got a creative streak too. There’s an artist in me who loves to dream big and imagine the possibilities. But at my core, if I had to use one word to describe myself—it would be Engineer. I like to build things—whether it’s ideas, solutions, or meaningful connections. So let’s explore, learn, and grow together. I promise to keep it real, keep it fun, and always keep it supportive.
