The thing about hunger is that it increases the more regularly you eat. When you're fasting you get into a flow after some hours and the feeling of hunger is mild or goes away completely.

Yeah I wonder if the whole "3 meals a day" is too much cooking for a modern person, thus all the fast food etc. One meal a day cooking is more reasonable. But I'd say you have to make sure you get your calories

I've been doing OMAD for over two and a half months. I don't weigh myself because it triggers me to binge, but I know I've lost a lot of weight. During that time I did two two-day fasts and one three-day fast. I'm so used to it now that it is normal for me. Just now, at over two and a half months I am beginning to feel the hightened clarity and re-connection to my body. I am also doing a lot of stretching and walking since I'm still too big to do much else. I love OMAD; it's really changed my life. It's safe to do long term. I admire how you experiment with your body and go full bore into whatever you do. Peace to you and yours. Thank you.

[@amartins3927]

I found that for me a 2 meal a day plan over a 6 hour window and training in a fasted state before the first meal works pretty well to find balance between getting some fasting benefits, controlling calories and not feeling weak. Occasionally doing omad because life happens and if out of home with no healthy choices just skip the 2nd meal

Are you cardio training and weight training? I find i can only do light-medium sessions w/ no food

[@amartins3927]

@@360johnn when I started fasting I also started to transition to a low carb/high (good) fat diet - not 100% keto but following the principles and make my body gain some metabolic flexibility so I would not be dependent on blood sugar for energy. I also did not start hard on 2 meals. Started with 3 over a 6 hour window but at some point with the right food choices I did not feel the need to do 3. But was also a gradual process - I think this is important. The majority of my training is HIIT or weighted workouts. In the first 2 to 3 weeks the pure cardio HIIT workouts were not easy as the body was learning were to get the energy from, however the strength workouts were ok. After a good 2 to 3 months I can actually sustain a higher peak of intensity for longer on the cardio workouts on empty stomach than I could before, and my strength also gone up ! I usually workout after fasting for 16 to 20 hours and I feel good. Personally I’m not very strict on timing, my only rule is to have the first meal after working out, and sometimes it happens in the morning, sometimes it happens late afternoon. Been working for me 👍🏼

You can replace the eggs with meet of fish of your choice for instance… I also really enjoy bowls of natural yogurt or keffir with nuts, grounded flax seeds and berries - that makes up for a nice second or last meal - in my view even if only do these two you’ll be ok calories/nutritionwise as this is all nutrition dense foods 👍🏼 This has been working for me, and I usually eat until I’m full

[@christopherbucher7017]

Not that this will necessarily work for anyone else, but I found the greatest benefit from doing a slightly modified version of omad . I would still have the one big meal but then I would have a protein shake or something about an hour to 2 hours later. So more like one and a half meals a day? But that prevented me from being extremely over full and also made sure I could hit all of the macros that I needed to. I lost like 25 lb in 5 months doing this and you're still doing intermittent fasting for essentially 22 or 23 hours a day. Just made it a bit more bearable in my opinion. Alternately, you could have a really light snack to tide you over for an hour or two and then have the big meal. That helped me push my food later into the day so that I would be full when I went to bed instead of binging on snack foods or junk food.

OMAD is the best thing that ever happened to me. My brain is clear my love handles went away as well As any other inflammation in my body and changed my face as well. Calmer too.

I`ve been intermittent fasting for several years, changing between the different types O.M.A.D.. 20/4 and even 16/8 on holidays because O.M.A.D is very anti-social . I find that soda water and black coffee are the best to kill the pangs but better than both is a short sharp exercise session, even a few push ups, burpees or whatever , things you can do wherever you are. Lately. I started to feel sluggish after a meal so I changed my fasting hours from evening to early in the day. Now I eat a huge breakfast , I`m full all day and everything I do kind of feels like a type of exercise and the bloat ends early in the day so I`m also sleeping better. I`m no where near as hungry as I used to be and I can also be a little hungry and it`s okay: I don`t have to feel full all day, I can live with a little hunger. Meal prep is important if you`re working outside of the house and upping the protein and laying off refined sugars is still important even if you`re only eating once a day. Most important of all is that it makes you feel great.

I've been doing one meal a day routinely for the last 7 or more years (give or take the occasional party and family gathering). Personally works for me.

I'm not a regular weight lifter..i'm I data scientist by day and someone who enjoys physical activities (yard work, skiing, surfing, hiking, etc.) when i'm not. IMO most important part is that 1 meal covers standard nutrient intakes and you have an app to track that you make sure you're getting what is necessary.

@aaronghee7435 I stand corrected, I fasted for 42 hours until my dinner tn and I barely fit in 1400 calories lmao Edit: back when I was eating with no thought, before I jumped on this diet, I would've given him a run for his money LOL

[@thegunslinginghero]

I started doing this while in the Military, stopped a bit after I was deployed because I was drinking a lot of alcohol. Now, over the last year of working at a marina, I slowly started fasting again and now I'm sort of back on the OMAD and I don't really notice. It's 11:21am and I've had a glass of milk so far. I'll eat around 5 or 530 or so. A glass of milk for bone density, I noticed some joint pain over extended periods of exercise or lifting. just my findings though. I'm 5'11 and wiegh 215 at the moment, which is not very good since I'm not cut anymore. I also smoke a bit of weed, so that might play a factor.

He did actually start to look really lean towards the end, but didn’t loose muscle

Excellent video just like every other video bro. Moustache getting thick like Ned Flanders moustache nice one. Keep having fun, looking forward to what you have planned next. Much respect

[@zachrat9083]

The flow state you get into after around 16 hours is unmatched. It feels almost like you are heavily caffeinated. It is also just so easy to follow as planning three meals a day would stress me out lol

[@andreaahh]

Fr, after a while you start feeling like some kind of God and your energy just sky rockets

[@zachrat9083]

@@andreaahh That’s what’s funny about fasting. People who literally don’t eat for 3-4 days have more energy than people following a mainstream diet. The body b crazy.

[@CaribbeanQueen72xx]

Wowwwww you look so amazing 😳. This was such an amazing video to watch . This Omar diet I guess have always existed for folks in the 3 rd world countries , except we didn’t know it was such a thing ,we thought it’s because we were poor and don’t have enough ; not realizing life doesn’t happen to us , it happens for us. . Am now living in the 🇺🇸 US , married , my husband adopt to the same diet . Am going to be 51 yrs old feel like 28 😂 , am at the gym on fasting mode 5 days a week and feel amazing ..

[@FringeWizard2]

I did OMAD for a couple years of my life. It's only when I found out soup kitchens exist that I changed my eating habits to eating multiple times a day.

[@amandabass04]

So you dont do omad or IF

[@brandonallison3315]

I see a lot of comments saying they did this by accident and I almost/sort of did too but it wasnt full on OMAD it was more of a snack + dinner. My freshman year at college in 2019 I had a very low budget and my daily routine consisted of coffee in the morning , maybe a snack (crackers/beef jerky) between classes, and dinner at night. In between, I was fairly active as each class was anywhere from a 10-20 minute walk in 110 degree weather (ASU) and I would usually end my day at the gym or playing basketball and lost about 20-30lbs in one semester. The crazy thing is being so broke, I mostly could afford burger king and used to use do the surveys every night to get a free whopper a couple of times a week so I wasnt even consuming quality dinners it was fries and a burger but it worked unintentionally

[@samanthaporter6662]

I have been doing OMAD for three years and feel better than ever!

[@ledgic1317]

Great video , and what a killer mustache brother!

[@joylea]

I did this for 40+ days and in the first 30 I lost 20lbs. I also followed weight watchers and usually ate something like salmon and broccoli sometimes with a side of avocado toast. I was full and could t eat anymore. I still continue to do OMAD and now starting alternate day fasting. Fasting is so beneficial for our bodies! I consistently lost weight daily doing this (I have 20lbs to go)

[@thespideryt2735]

I thought this was an old video due to that cool moustache

[@YeesOlsson123]

Very interesting. The only thing that I was thinking about was that if eating the one meal at dinner, eat it at lunch. Because if you are eating so much calories so close to bedtime you will have worse sleep. If you eat at lunch, you would have been more empty before bed and will result in lower heart rate and better sleep quality. That is one thing I do sometimes just to improve my sleep.

[@cor.tenebrarum]

I know the answer cause I've been on OMAD (and strict carnivore) about a decade now. Real freedom. You have constant energy whole day, you don't seek snacks every few hours, no gasses and bloating , you look like a greek god and many, many more pros. And no, I'm not tracking callories - I eat untill I'm full. P.S.: week wasn't long enough to grasp real magic of OMAD.

[@oman9492]

Omad does allow for some plant food over other eating windows. The 23 hour fast will burn everything up.

[@DanteFortson]

I do OMAD and I don't eat remotely close to this much. Most of my meals consist of a lean protein and veggies. I don't get why people think OMAD is a substitute for bad eating habits. The point of OMAD is to eat fewer calories in a single sitting and eating healthy. As you pointed out after the first few days the hunger decreases. But OMAD without changing what you eat is vastly less effective.

[@ryandeffley7652]

When I want to cut I do two things : 1) Don't eat once per week. It creates a weekly deficit in one shot and allows maintenance/small surplus the other six days. My day of choice is Sunday. 2) Increase step count. I walk every morning just to be active. But a few days per week I'll add on an extra hour in the afternoon. **This process lets me lose 1.5-2lbs per week pretty effortlessly and since I never feel deprived six days per week, my hunger cues are stable. I do regular IF the other six days with 2-3 meals in a 6hr window. 👍

[@maalikfazal1406]

Hi Ryan. You wake up as a novice… unable to do a single pushup/pull-up. You are 30% bf. You want to be 15% bf in 6 months. How would you structure your weights, walking, calories and fasting? Thanks 🙏🏽

[@ryandeffley7652]

@Maalik Fazal - Realistically, it'll take two years TBH. But I'd do this : 1) Spend 6 months walking every single day to build a habit of being generally active. Have getting daily steps be your main focus. 2) Work on keeping it to 2 meals in a 4-6hr eating window and get used to taking in more protein. Once you spend 6 months building those two habits, then I'd slowly start working in 2-3 full body lifting workouts per week. Also if you have no real experience with lifting or calisthenics, I'd get a reputable coach that could help with form. 👍

[@maalikfazal1406]

@@ryandeffley7652 thank you so much for replying sir. I greatly appreciate it. Stay blessed 🙏🏽

[@ryandeffley7652]

@Maalik Fazal - No worries. 👍 The thing most people do is trying too much change all at once. So, if you get used to walking/fasting first, it's already a daily lifestyle. Then, it's easier to add in lifting afterward.

[@tahzeebulalam8094]

Doing omad is great for body transformation..but only possible with one GIANT meal with an entire day's of calories in one meal....great job pigmie keep it up

[@chizzytheguy4990]

For 3 weeks straight I’ve been eating only lunch and I have gone from 285 to 262. I’m scared. Isn’t it too fast. Am I doing something wrong?

[@user-zd8vg1nl5g]

No that rapid loss could be due to water weight as well

[@ElizabethUkeh]

You're doing great! Keep it up!

[@flameron1]

No it makes sense. The bigger you are the more you lose. You probably just had a lot of excess fat that fell off due rly he changes you made. It’s when you stabilize and the water weight becomes low that it slows down

[@BeastMode-4422]

I been doing the omad for almost 1.5 years, only breaking omad on weekends, eating 3 or 2 smaller meals trough the day, combined with my job which involves a lot of walking and lifting stuff on ocasion, i lost 35 kgs in that year and a half. Considering in the beginning i felt like crap but now feel good. And actually sometimes not hungry even when coming home from working 8-10 hours.

[@omadjourney]

I'm actually impressed with how much food you put away lol,I'm trying to make omad a lifestyle...it's a struggle but does get easier.

[@cl3x18999]

New subscriber. Great video!

[@Friendly_G]

I used to do something similar to this, I was always a skinny kid who skipped breakfast, school lunch, and only ate dinner and a ton of snacks at around 7-8. I never really felt hungry so I never really ate, my bodied was adapted to that. Here's what's interesting though, mid 2022-now(2023) comes around and I start to change my diet. At first it was a painful time with eating a healthy breakfast and being full the whole to having to, lets just say, empty the bowels multiple times a day which was icmpltely odd as usually I'd only do my business once a week. Skip to today and my body can't handle not eating in the morning. Interesting stuff right?

[@atirocks]

one of the first changes I experienced starting my OMAD lifestyle was the ability to smell see and taste flavours and food colours that I never seen or tasted or smelt before. very interesting how our brains are hardwired to notice food when we are hungry!

[@igotthejuice2090]

I lost 30 lbs in 2 1/2 months doing omad.. And haven’t worked out.. It really works
