You enlighten me by sharing your knowledge about OMAD. This maybe not be the type of diet that I want for now, maybe in my next step to maintain my weight I will definitely try this. I should have focus first to lose many pounds in other way.
Please take a long hard look at a ketogenic diet. Most people who do Keto also do intermittent fasting, of which OMAD is the most extreme version, but that's only because those two are the diet regimes that are the most effective at maintaining health. You can be on a ketogenic diet and not do intermittent fasting, that is perfectly fine. It is in fact easier to adapt to intermittent fasting 'after' you have become fat adapted from keto, because you experience a lot less hunger. So starting with keto and putting intermittent fasting and OMAD on the backburner for a while is perfectly fine.
You can learn a lot about a ketogenic diet, and there is so much information out there that it is easy to be overwhelmed. But the essence of a ketogenic diet is very simple. Stop eating carbs. Like stop, completely. No sugar, period. No grains, no starches, that means no bread, no pizzas, etc.. You need to spend a bit of time learning what has carbs and stop eating that stuff. For instance potatoes are out, so are vegetable oils, use olive oil instead. You can permit yourself a maximum of 20 grams of carbs total a day from any and all sources, and that's it. That 20 gram budget should be used for low carb veggies.
Other than that, the question of what to eat is pretty simple, you eat what's left, but primarily you eat leafy greens for veggies, and for the main fuel energy, you eat fatty sources of protein. The idea is to shift your body (radically) from using carbs as a fuel source to using fat as a fuel source. That includes your own body's fat reserves by the way. ;-)
So you can eat chicken with the skin, pork chops with the fat, oily fish, eggs, BACON!!!, cheese, butter, olive oil, etc.. My meal today was a massive cheese omelette cooked in both olive oil and butter, I threw in an onion and some garlic, which was well under my 20 gram carb budget. Yesterday I made an awesome curried butter chicken that my non keto friends devoured. You can eat well on keto while losing weight.
The final ingredient to losing weight on keto is; don't eat if you're not hungry, stop eating when you are satiated.
I posted some links to some great YouTube channels to learn more, somewhere around here. I'll see if I can't find them... Found it:
