Pls. post and let us know how you're doing and feeling and how it's going for you. No judgement what-so-ever, just care and want to help you either start, re-start or just let you know you're NOT alone and someone is thinking about you.

    We do need more people posting and sharing their journey. It helps us all when we do and makes us stronger. So, I second OMADing....if you're just beginning OMAD, hit a speed bump, or an old hand at this, please take a minute and let us know how you're doing. We are in this together.

    Morning everybody! Guys, I gotta tell you OMAD is the real deal but it takes a while to get to the point where it feels right for you. At first it feels like deprivation but after a while you realise that your are doing yourself a big favour. Hope you are all having a great day!

    Good Morning to you too! It is the real deal and it does take some time to get adjusted. Guess what...we did it!! It looks like we have a couple newbies that introduced themselves on the 'introduction to OMAD' posts. Yeah!!

    I watch Joe's videos when I feel that way. It helps a lot. You are very strong to ignore those feelings and do something about them instead of caving into them. Congrats!!

    Kitty,

    I've been very fortunate in that I have been able to lose weight and have a little bit longer eating window. I believe that I'm able to do that due to exercise. If exercise gets interrupted then I have a harder time losing weight with an extended eating window. Basically the exercise allows me to eat back some. I know exercise is discouraged and I think that if we are very heavy, we definitely should not do aggressive exercise due to injury and cortisol slowing down fat loss. Also hard physical exercise is anaerobic which requires glucose as fuel whereas low level exercise is aerobic which can be provided through fat burning so low level extended exercise will burn more fat I believe. Anyways exercise can cause muscle gain and water retention too and so that can discourage people but that diminishes after a couple of weeks and is no longer a player after that. My 2-cents.

    What exercise do you do Blambo?

    I was running and but have had some injury issues that have prevented me doing that for a long time. I also don't recommend running to anyone that is a lot overweight because that is inviting injury. I think a easy long casual walk, swimming, or biking would be ok. I wouldn't do any of the same thing more than 3-times a week also to help prevent injury.
