    The meal looks yummy! The salt is totally worth the temporary water weight gain, in my opinion!

    :)

    Definitely. I'm loving the idea of the OMAD lifestyle while eating my favorite Asian delights with zero guilt!

    I'm going with a large bowl of brisket Pho this weekend. Oh yeah.

    Eating your smoothie probably helped you indulge less. Smart move! I'm a big eater and sometimes I will eat some at home before we go to a friends house to eat so I won't get hungry eating there (most people don't eat as much as I can) while eating about the same amount as others. Thought I would throw out that confession!

    My hypothesis is that our bodies sometimes are calling out for nutrients versus calories! Seems some science backs that up in many cases. I appreciate your confession! Joe posted a video about some folks needing a longer eating window or amount of food that works for them on OMAD. If it takes me 2 hours to eat the food required to be satisfied, so be it! My goal is one hour, but eating too quickly is dangerous for this food addict! All the fiber in those smoothies is really filling, however. I also add fats like avocado and flax oil. Fats really help bring that calorie count to an acceptable level in a pinch.

    I'm also keeping some low ingredient nutrition bars and nuts on my person - just in case my evening meal will not have sufficient calories or volume!

    Oh man, that dish looks like a restaurant photo!

    And yes, those two types of fish are excellent.

    That's making me really hungry! Looks awesome. When I lived in California, I used to go tuna fishing about twice a year and loved doing that. I love fish (all kinds) and could do that every day for a very long time!

    Sloppy meal hahah but one of my staples... Just some 90/10 ground beef with onions and green peppers on top of rice, with a side of yogurt. Ground beef seasoned with salt, pepper, chili powder, all-spice, and a touch of tomato paste.

    About 1700 calories in total. Arabs tend to put a side of yogurt with every food so I couldn't resist... o:)

    Might make some kebabs tomorrow with the rest of my ground beef with some veggies skewered on, that would be nice.

    Hi! Here's the recipe for a protein shake I drink sometimes as part of my OMAD. It's about 500 cal as described below:

    1-1/2 c. 2% milk
    1 tablespoon Nestle's Quik (No Sugar Added)
    1 tablespoon protein powder, any flavor
    1 medium banana, frozen
    1 tablespoon peanut butter (peanuts only, no additives)

    Blend until smooth.

    You can customize per your tastes. I find that it's a good way to get calories in on the occasions when I don't feel like doing much food prep.

    Had some rib eye steak to get rid of...

    Excuse the kraft singles, was too lazy to go out and get proper cheese hahah.

    Whole meal was roughly 1700 calories. Saved some calories off the rib eye by trimming off some of the side fat, even though it hurt to do lol
