Hi Larry T,
I went at it cold turkey February 13 after years of yo-yo dieting and after realizing I didn't want to do another week of the GM diet to lose 6 to 7 pounds of water weight only to gain it back 2-3 days later. I didn't really feel hungry throughout the day but I did and still do begin to feel hungry closer to my window of eating but I've been able to hold out until it's time to have my OMAD by telling myself how much I'll enjoy my meal.
I will say that it's important to eat enough whenever you do decide to have your OMAD and should certainly hold you over until the next window of eating.
I agree. Are there any specific goals you are aiming for with OMAD? Mine is fat loss quite honestly. I'm looking to shed 15-20 lbs but the overall being healthy thing would be quite nice as wellThanks. I'm going to be starting tommorow. I think my eating window is going to be from 4-8. I think I'm going to just go with it cold turkey as well and see how I fare. I'm kind a nervous since I've never done anything like this but I'm also excited was well. This seems simple enough for me that I can do this all the time and keep my weight down. I tried keto for awhile, but I'm just not a person who has time to always check labels and worry about what they are eating.

Hi LarryT, I am starting tomorrow...jumping right in.
I started cold-turkey too. I had a big meal the night before and the next day I was an OMADer. If I was miserable I would have quit, but I wasn’t miserable, in fact, I liked it. I felt SO out of control before and now I feel so much more in control. It’s day 16 and down 13.5 pounds. I’m still 9.5 pounds away from goal, that would put me in the “normal” weight range for the first time in years.
