    Update: I've adjusted quite well to this pattern and i am finding it more and more effortless. even at the 23rd hour i feel just the same as if i had eaten at normal intervals. i haven't experienced any further negative symptoms since i posted about my nausea. I feel excellent and i have not had...

    The error in a constant low calorie diet.

    That makes a lot of sense actually. nonetheless i'm keeping my fasts shorter for nutrition sake but by all means if its working for you carry on. i may read up more on Doctor Fung's work. I am familiar with him but i haven't read much of his writing yet. i intend to read The Fasting Cure if i...

    The error in a constant low calorie diet.

    I would make one suggestion for you, its somewhat inline with your current train of thought anyway. I was reading yesterday about studies showing that people don't gain weight based on calories near so much as the ratio of carbs and fats. Keto or similarly low carb eaters could actually eat...

    Problems with conventional BMI when setting goals

    This may be a little off the topic of OMAD specifically, but is relavent to diet goals in general. I always thought that typical recommended ideal body weights were total garbage because they can be so wildly inaccurate. Out of curiosity(i don't actually use calorie counting or meal plans) i...

    I don't like the word Diet.

    I view the word Diet differently than most i think. To most people when they hear the word Diet they think deprivation, losing a couple hard earned pounds and finally giving in to the inevitable binge and gaining it back. To me, diet means the fuel i put in my body, plain and simple. i don't...

    Update: Supposed to be 9 A.M. meal today. for some reason i felt quite nauseous at that time and didn't think i could eat any solid food so i sipped some juice to settle my stomach and slept off the nausea. Woke again around 12:20 i then ate some yogurt, bacon, and eggs along with some more...

    Training Philosophy

    Thanks Bobby Cole for your in depth reply. You make total sense, and yes in my experience regardless of how i eat and train, i am apt to get stronger but not bigger. As i said thats what i want anyway, although there was a time when i simply wanted to be muscular. Goals change of course based on...

    What Motivates You To OMAD?

    that was my understanding as well. i dove into learning all the science which sold me on the idea of using OMAD in combination with my training, but as i said i have limited experience with how to best approach that.

    I will reply with updates then. right now i have completed the first full day of fasting which was yesterday(i figured it made sense to kickstart progress by doing that at the beginning not the end of the cycle) and today i had my first 8 A.M. meal. I was already eating somewhere close to keto...

    Question regarding multiple day total fasts and supplements.

    I think the other comments about covered it but just for information sake here goes. the vitamins shouldn't affect your fast in the least, although i don't know how well your body will absorb them. the oil capsules are going to technically make this a fat fast, although that isn't much fat. Fat...

    Training Philosophy

    Hi guys, what are your beliefs regarding when and how to train, as well as timing the training in regard to your eating? I have limited experience with training in combination with fasting, however I am quite fit because i kept myself strong before OMAD. I believe in the principle of Slow and...

    What Motivates You To OMAD?

    I'm just now getting back into OMAD. My motivation is developing a healthy, lean body that will benefit my Martial Arts training. I don't really have weight to lose, but instead am looking to get stronger and put on just a bit more muscle without the fat. also I am looking to make this a...

    Hi! I just started OMAD for the second time. i did it once before but it became impossible for a short time and then didn't restart it until now. I am trying out an idea and i'm curious what any veteran OMAD dieters think about it. Here's the idea: i'm doing a cycle that lasts 16 days and...
