One meal a day lower than recommended calories intake

modimix1

Hey! I'd like to know what exactly would happen when I don't get enough calories while being on one meal a day for about a month, I've noticed today that my body is lacking energy despite me trying to eat well during that one meal altho I think the real issue comes with the amount of food I'm eating.. ps. I'm fasting for about 22hours and only using 2 hours of my day to eat that's why I can't eat much

If it's impossible for you to get the number of calories you need while doing OMAD/fasting, then it is not a good fit for you.

Not getting enough calories is going to lead to lack of energy and potential health problems.

I think you already know the answer. Lethargy, dizziness, difficulty understanding, malnutrition, lack of focus. All things that can happen when lowering your calories too much. Not to mention irritability.
