Overnight cold water-steeped PG Tips black tea in a Ball mason jar is now my favorite IF-approved drink: I was getting a little tired of black coffee and water so I decided to take all of my pint-sized Ball wide mouth mason jars with their after-market white plastic tops, plop a single PG Tips pyramid bag into the bottom of each jar, fill the jar with cool water from the tap, and put them all into the fridge.

Maybe it's the wheat, maybe it's the gluten, maybe it's the carbs, possibly the portion, maybe the sodium, could be the fat: Last night sucked. Yesterday, I made a heaping portion of Angel Hair Pasta with store-bought Ragu Alfredo sauce and a bunch of chopped store-bought sliced honey ham and made it into a giant happy vat of lunch—all because I really wanted to eat noodles with a mug full of disposable wooden chopsticks that remind me of growing up in Hawaii.

One-Meal-a-Day (OMAD) with a Preference for IF and OBAD: Things are going better with the diet. I refuse to keep any food in the house. I am even tempted to dump my stone-ground grits and my stone-ground oats—including yummy, yummy, bars of butter.

Do two solid 19:5 days make a trend?: I've been trying for years to get my IF (intermittent fast) 19:5 (nineteen-hours fasting per-day and five-hours for eating, per-day) sorted and it looks like I've finally convinced my actual self to actually do it. I know it's only for two days! But I've done a lot with two successful days in a row. And each day is a restricted 1,500 low carb day, too.

My One Burrito a Day (OBAD) One Meal a Day (OMAD) Diet: For a couple weeks now, I have been following the one meal a day—OMAD—diet. I am trying it out because after reading about and trying the keto diet, which is very prescriptive, I wanted something easy that amalgamates intermittent fasting, one very satisfying meal that fulfills all the calories I need for a day that actually satiates me, and no food to cheat with in my fridge, cupboard, or larder.

Trying one meal a day—OMAD: If you go down the Keto diet rabbit hole, you'll end up reading about IF—intermittant fasting; and, if you spend enough time on reddit, you'll eventually discover the OMAD subreddit: One Meal A Day. It's simple: eat like a king once-a-day, somewhere between 4pm and 8pm, but only for an hour. Then, stop eating for the next 23-hours.
