Redpill me on OMAD

i like it

Approaching 1 year of OMAD.

Results are incredible.

post progress please

I would take a few photos right now but I literally just ate my meal and my stomach is about to pop. This is a fairly recent back photo. OMAD has enabled me to put on size and stay super lean. As a natural lifter that was the hardest problem to solve. I could get real lean but at the cost of losing a lot of size.

do you do keto omad? before or after you train?

I've worked a schedule where I skip lunch and then eat dinner way late in the day (past 10:00 PM), and I get fucking starving at around 5:00 PM
Worked this schedule for 4 years.

Might be worth trying if you're a fat fuck, outside of that why the fuck would you bother?

It helps with hunger but dont think its magic its still cico

CICO is a meme faggot. energy is not equal in healthy and unhealthy foods.

there reason why OMAD and IF is good is because fasting makes you burn more fat, increases HGH, lowers insulin.

its also retarded to gorge yourself on food from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed

Yes, pretty much no carbs or sugar.

I eat after I train.

EATING FREQUENCY MATTERS MORE THAN WHAT YOU EAT YOU FUCKING BITCH

IF YOU EAT 10 POUNDS OF ICE CREAM, WOULD IT MATTER IF YOU FASTED FOR 30 DAYS?

OMAD IS BABY LEVEL FASTING. A FUCKTON SUPERIOR TO MULTIPLE MEALS A DAY UNLESS YOU'RE TRYING TO PACK ON WEIGHT AND/OR YOU'RE FRAUDING

TRY IT YOU PUSSY ASS BITCH. DO YOU NEED SOMEBODY TO HOLD YOUR FUCKING HAND THROUGHOUT LIFE YOU ZOOMER LEVEL BITCH?

>CICO is a meme
no, what you think is CICO is a meme. CICO is calories in (that you absorb and don't immediately burn off for heat, for example) vs calories out (calories that you burn, considering natural fluctuations in metabolism and activity), and that's 100% factual because you can't burn more energy than you take in and not lose energy.

>you can't burn more energy than you take in and not lose energy

What the fuck does this even mean faggot, you can metabolise muscle and fat if you have no calories left

GO FUCK YOURSELF IN THE ASS YOU BITCH

CALORIES IS A PIECE OF SHIT WAY TO CALCULATE EXPENDABLE ENERGY THAT YOUR BODY CAN EXTRACT FROM FOOD, ESPECIALLY IF YOU THINK 'FIBER' CAN HOLD ANY EQUIVALENT AMOUNT OF CALORIES COMPARED TO ANIMAL FATS.

THE CALORIC SYSTEM IS A GOOD WAY TO GAUGE BASIC STRUCTURE OF WHATEVER YOU'RE EATING, BUT YOU HAVE TO READ BEYOND THE LABEL TO FIGURE OUT IF WHAT YOU'RE EATING IS WORTH A SHIT

If there is no insulin in your body you can burn fat easily so the hunger only lasts for moments before the body burns it's own fuel.

You experience worse hunger when constantly eating and spiking insulin without eating enough calories to fuel your body. You can't burn fat if there is insulin in your blood.

OMAD is better than constantly eating too few calories.

i wonder if people who do fasting or OMAD go to the gym at all or if they're JUST absolute fatties trying to shed some flesh

>Thinking fasting is about reducing calories at all

The benefits of not eating 15 times a day like a fat ass american is about hormones, not calories. You could eat 5000 calories in that single meal and still lose weight if you have a healthy metabolism to deal with the extra energy.

Forget about calories completely, eat healthy food and plenty of saturated fats my dude.

LISTEN TO THEM

I do fasting and OMAD and I'm only 140lb. I do it because it's the only way I found to reduce my inflammations and also because I want the HGH to keep me young for longer.

wouldn't you get one massive insulin spike per day rather than snacking progressively where it'd be lower throughout? I do OMAD but only cause of schedule shit, from what I understand though it'd actually spike your insulin daily. Could you explain?

thats because you ate breakfast, you still had insulin left from that

it is equal though, it's just that some foods are not as digestible or their metabolism costs energy such as most carbs and fats and proteins, saturated fats are the most calorie dense nutrient, fiber is the least.

the longer you fast the higher the spike in insulin once u acatually eat, to a certain extent, so yeah omad is dumb if u care about insulin spikes

OMAD Is literally just the thing you do on a day you know you have a big dinner, party or are going out on restaurants day so that you don't fill yourself beyond caloric needs...

Its a meme

Just think of it as doing a 23-hour fast 7 times a week.

>no response

Not necessarilly correct

I can easly slowly bulk on omad
Its just hard to do with rice chicken meme, but if you go fatty meats (especially with carbs) you will blow yhe fuck up in fat

not if you just eat fat and protein.
the body also deals with one big spike a lot better than chronic elevations.

OMAW (one meal a week) is feasible?

If you want to cut while being muscle sparing, yes
I did that

Doesnt work for mainetance tho, you cannot possibly go through this much volume of food

Cole just made video on that

Good for health and longevity, but its a meme for athletics/performance

Wrong unless roids into play when you need to eat so much you cant possibly cram it into 1meal

When I say health and longevity I mean like preserving your inner organs, arteries, GI tract etc and living a more disease free life even if you stay a twink eating OMAD.

But if you are working out or some sort of athlete OMAD is a meme and you need the constant meals throughout the day

I love OMAD, no need to shit multiple times a day, I feel fresh and full of energy all day, and fill up on tasty foods in the evening, plus I save a shitload of time.

any ideas on a single meal with 1500kcal which is both nutritious (has all the vitamins I need and all that good stuff) and has enough protein?

help a fat dude

>train at 7am
>eat at 7pm

I love it, I feel great all day

meat and veggies

wala

now stop fucking eating fatty

I don't get it, do you go to the gym while fasted? How do you guys do it? I feel fucking weak if I don't eat a big breakfast before going, I mean you need to fill those glycogen storages man

they are fucking DYELs obviously

Look at the /cbt/ threads and you will realize it is mostly twinks and DYELs giving advice on this board, never take advice from fit, ever

You don't lose glycogen stores over night you fucking moron, learn some basic biology

Terry Crews does IF.

If you don't have energy 16+ hours after eating then your system can't burn fat for shit.

Train your body to burn fat for energy. Stop eating garbage food and sugars, introduce animal fats and protein nigger

I did it for years,y meal was always T the end of the day

Pros
>SUPERB appetite suppression
>Save time (less food prep)
>Never worrying about snacks/energy/"blood sugar"
>Pre/post workout meal becomes a meme
>Cardio while fasted is great
>Always "feel lighter"
>You finally appreciate real hunger cues and food tastes better
>Extremely defined bowel schedule
>Takes less drugs to get high while fasted (saved alot of money on weed)

Cons
>Lifting while fasted is not great, I'm used to it now
>It will be hard to go back to 3 meals a day
>Breakfast becomes undoable (my body is still processing 3000+kcals eaten late the previous night
>Some days may feel more exausting than others, you may be more irritable
>Bulking becomes downright impossible
>Eating out with friends becomes weird
>Extremely defined bowel schedule doesn't mix well with abrupt changes in life schedule

I had my blood sugar and A1C tested multiple times (two for a uni course, two or three for doctor appointment) and I was always well within normal ranges for blood sugar

Preliminary research suggests that people who do OMAD for a long time have an altered glycogen storage/release mechanism, where their body is better at storing energy for the next fast and slow releasing it so that they do not need food in between, while many fatties who eat constantly end up with low blood sugar after just a few hours

It's for skinny losers with no strength. If you want to weigh as much as a woman, eat OMAD and then go pat yourself on the pussy for a job well done

Isn't that how Sumo wrestlers bulk?

it's not about the energy, it's about glycogen stores in your muscles you dumbfuck

fasting 16:8 is good right? I might tighten it to 18:6 but then I'd start to have to actually try.

Just do OMAD at that point. 23:1

quite the opposite. fewer meals = lower insulin spikes

dunno, I like being able to eat before and after gym

no its not equal

fewer insulin spikes, but higher in magnitude

After eating my OMAD I can literally feel my body getting hotter and heart rate elevating.
It's a nice feeling, but what exactly causes this?
Massive insulin spike?

I do 22:8 IF, which is basically a long OMAD.
I don't start eating until right when I get home from the gym at around 8:00PM, then I keep eating until I go to sleep at 10:00PM.

I spend the entirety of my day at work and then go straight to the gym while still fasted. Easy as fuck, feel great and still somehow getting stronger after having lost a little over 30lbs.
I started drinking BCAA's with my pre-workout since people were saying it helps keep your muscles from breaking down when you're fasted, but I don't feel like it changed anything.

The relationship between calorie intake and insulin maximum value is not entirely linear. And even then, reducing the eating window lowers the time insulin spikes last.

I feel like I perform better without food before lifting so eating fewer times works out for me.I usually dont eat till 4 or 5 then maybe a snack but usually its a 1500 cal meal

it takes about 3 days to deplete glycogen stores you dumb fuck. Hell in the first 24 hours you still have fucking glucose in your liver than you need to process before you ever start getting at what's in your muscles.

You have like what? 3000 calories worth of glycogen in your body when fully fed?
You could burn through that within running a single marathon.
Your assessment is incorrect, since how much glycogen you use up in a fasted state depends on your activity level.
Even then, you would be hard pressed to take 3 days to use it all, even if you are in a near comatose state of inactivity.

>22:8
22 + 8 = 30
What's your home planet?

At the beginning, yeah. But it's amazing how quickly this stops. After 2 weeks I wasn't getting hungry until 4 PM most days, and that dinner is all the more appreciated.

yeah because people routinely run marathons before lifting right?
That's what this argument was about brainlet, whether or not you have sufficient glycogen stores after 16h of fasting in order to lift properly.
Also, after you get used to fasting you go into ketosis much faster without fully utilizing your glycogen stores. It takes me about 6-8 hours for my keto strips to show red, and I don't even eat low carb.

>hours can only be counted in the span of one day

he obviously meant 22:2

I think he's talking about the metabolisation of muscle and fat as a net loss of energy, which it is.

>start following omad
>tough at first, but get used to it
>lose 10-15lbs a month, just from not eating as much
>still eat out often and have the occasional fast food
I don't even lift and I'm probably the least active guy on Jow Forums. I can't recommend OMAD enough if you want to lose weight easily.

>"I don't do something therefore nobody does it"
>Doesn't know how to apply grade school logic
>Calls others brainlet
lmao, really

>Eating every day at different hours
>End up having your easting window at 2am
>Losing resting gains to eat

you are either baiting or sub 80iq

how long have you been following it?

good for loosing weight.

4 months, Ive lost 50lbs.

Same here man, dropped 25kg in about 4 months. Great for weight loss. Currently doing 16:8 and more strength training

if you really stuff yourself you'll gain weight on omad

2 liters of raw whole milk

Wa la

OMAD works

i eat 7,300,000 calories once every 10 years
i feed again in 2020. i'm scared to gain all my weight back though

What's the alternative?

CICO OMAD + MIMO OTAW (money in vs money out one transaction a week) bros where the fuck are you at?

It's ok
