I've been taking half a melatonin pill on most nights just so I could sleep earlier and wake up at the right time but I'm worried that it might be breaking my fasting period because it's a chewable and tastes a bit sweet. I only take a very small amount as I only use half a tablet but still if...

I usually work at night when I've already had my meal and finished with my chores because I am not too good at focusing on work while hungry and also I am just not as motivated to work in the daytime as I am when it's night. Because of this, I am free to do most of my recreational activities...

Some days I don't sleep as well as I should and it ends up making me feel drowsy throughout the day. The problem is that as much as I try to get back to sleep when I wake up early I can't do it and end up being more able to nap and get more sleep only after my mealtime during the afternoons. I...

Two days ago I reached night time and did my usual routine of getting ready to wind down and my stomach was grumbling but I did not think much of it since it was common enough for me already at this point and I was ready to just go to bed and wait for my next meal the next day. However, on this...

I just found out today that I feel much better about exercising after my one meal a day. Before I used to just force myself to move and would often feel lazy or even weak but today for some reason I decided to exercise about an hour after I had my meal and felt much better about it as it felt a...

I hate to admit it, but for a week I have been going on and off OMAD because for some reason last week felt a lot more difficult than any of my previous weeks since I started this diet. I was pretty much eating three meals a day again on some days and one of those days I woke up at 3am and just...

If I'm not mistaken, I think coffee is allowed during the fasting window, so I had some coffee this morning even if my meal time was not until 3pm. I was tempted to put in some artificial sweetener with it but decided against it because it's not too much of a sacrifice for me to just drink my...

My daily meal consists of 2 small cups of rice that amounts to filling the plate but not too high, some meat, and some fruits. I add some vegetables and tofu as well whenever it's available. I'm wondering if I can just continue eating this type of meal daily or if I should cut down more on my...

Most days since I started OMAD, I have had little problems getting through the day and reaching my 3pm-4pm window, but some days for some reason I just wake up feeling hungry or even starving. It's gotten to the point where I've even woken up just having dreamed of eating food and once I'm awake...

I'm a bit ashamed to admit it, but I'm nearly a month and a half in doing OMAD with a few cheat days here and there, but haven't felt much of a difference. I don't have a weighing scale so I could not check weekly results but have been disciplined in eating at the right time everyday and only...

I don't have a weighing scale and I'm wondering if I should buy one. I went on the OMAD diet mostly to slim down and to adopt a healthier lifestyle that was practical and doable for the long term and I've seen people giving advice that weighing yourself each week was good practice. However, I'm...

I eat my daily meal at 4pm and have been proud of myself for being able to stick to that routine for nearly a month, but lately I've been thinking of moving my meal to an earlier time since I have been finding it difficult to reach this time daily. I've mostly just stuck with it because I...

I'm only two weeks into my OMAD diet and I feel like my clothes are already a bit looser. I may be imagining it, but I do think there is a bit of a difference, although obviously not that much. I don't weigh myself though and am just more looking towards seeing actual physical results and am...

I searched the forum and saw some threads and comments touching on cheat days but I needed some more clarity on this specific side of cheat days so I made this thread. Supposedly, from some of the Youtube videos I've seen, having cheat days after a week or two weeks on an OMAD diet can not only...

I'm on day 12 of my OMAD diet and it has finally felt a bit easier for me ever since I started. I'm still 6 hours away from today's meal, but even this early on I feel like I could handle it better now than in any of the previous days. Perhaps it has a bit to do with me being able to sleep well...
