After a year of 16:8, last week I did 8 days of OMAD. No problems doing long 4 to 8 mile morning runs before my one big meal. However I did notice the nagging empty stomach feeling when going to bed about 12:30-1am.
(I work 2nd shift). And I'm not sure I was sleep as good as I should. So last night I made a very slight modification intended to take the edge off my stomach. At 8pm, 10pm and 11:30 when I got off work I had a single piece of pork rind. It's supposed to be 0 carbs. It really did the trick for me, no insulin response that I could tell, and slept well all night.
I know I'm not truly fasting for 24 hours, but I'm looking for something that can be sustainable for the long haul. What do you think?
