Hello, my name is Deborah. It's funny that my whole life I ate OMAD and everyone always told me how bad it was for me. I was ruining my metabolism, starving myself, blah blah blah. But I always felt that was the way to eat for me. My sister remembers me as always being skinny but eating huge plates of food at dinner. Fast forward past Menopause and I am now struggling to get the menopause gain off. I weigh 170 but want to get down to 125. Shoot - I would be happy with 135! I got up to 198 and got 30 lbs off by eating Keto meals. 5'3" tall and am tired of being fat!!! It really is quite liberating to not have to meal prep everyday. I can just waltz out of the house without taking anything with me and know that I will be home in so many hours to eat a Keto dinner. Everyone else is lugging bags around with them so they can eat during the day! What am I going to eat for breakfast? Don't have to answer that. What am I going to eat for lunch? Don't have to answer that. What am I going to eat for dinner? I don't know but I do know that it's going to be darn good. I work out 3 times a week Kickboxing. And walk a lot. So here goes.....another journey.0

Welcome, You don't have to count calories be cause with OMAD you're only eating 1 meal and it's very hard to eat too many calories unless you're eating unhealthy foods...Good luck!1 -
Hi everyone! My name is Charlie. I've been doing omad for about 2 weeks and have lost 10 pounds so far. I stumbled into this eating style just because I wanted 1 satisfying meal a day instead of 3 sad small meals! Surprisingly I've found this easy to do and it seems like something I could adopt for a lifetime. My focus and memory have really improved noticeably and I've started reading Dr. Fung's books on fasting to understand why this is. Thanks for letting me join this group. I joined to hopefully absorb some good advice from other practitioners. Also if you log your meals I would be grateful if you'd add me as a friend so I can have some people in my feed with the same eating style.0

Hi! My name is Bill. I started OMAD yesterday. I had watched a YouTube video a few days ago from Vegetable Police in which he discussed OMAD. A little digging around latter at the various videos and websites and OMAD Revolution is the most helpful and realistic. .
I'm 52 and like most tried so many plans to lose weight. None of them worked well and each time I didnt feel excited about a plan whether it was low this or low that or vegan, etc...... I actually feel enthusiastic about OMAD because it makes sense. It pleases my rational brain0 -

Hello everyone,
I'm Fiona. Today marks a month on OMAD for me. I'm rather worried as the last time I tried OMAD, I quit four weeks in. So I'm looking to get past this, and feel that having public accountability is the key. To this end, I will begin a progress thread.
I wish to thank everyone whose progress I've been covertly following over this past month; as the saying has it - "Be strong, you never know who you're inspiring"! You have, without knowing it, been a source of continuing support and encouragement.1 -

Hello! I just found out about OMAD fasting yesterday, and have tried everything else to lose weight and feel better, so why not, something that would make me less of a slave to the kitchen, and wouldn't have to eat in my car. I am a courier and drive 10 plus hours a day. well, I have also had a problem of getting extremely sleepy around 2-4 PM and always having to pull over and take short naps to get my energy back up, really cuts into my productivity, and can be dangerous too, yikes! well, I have been eating like four times a day, and was afraid to go long without eating, thought it would make me too hungry and overeat. but the last two days, I worked all day and ate my only meal after work, and both days during the fast, I did feel somewhat hungry, but it was not near as bad as i thought it would be. but the big difference is both days, i did not have any sleepiness at all, had no need of a nap, and had noticeably more energy! Now it was only 2 days, so could have been coincidence, but i am excited to see if this continues. If so, this will be an even bigger benefit than losing the 50 pounds I want to lose! I will also be mad though, only because i didn't find out about this long ago hahahaha
