Fresh Berries Picture this — you know you have a carton of strawberries in the back of the fridge just waiting to be devoured.

5 A Day: what counts?

Eating just one meal a day may seem like a crazy concept to you. It might even seem impossible or too hard to keep up. You may have heard the term intermittent fasting. This is a way to describe diets that cycle between periods of eating and periods of fasting. Eating one meal a day would be considered a strict form of time-restricted feeding because most of the day is spent fasting with only one window of time spent eating. The idea behind eating only one meal a day is to eat less overall. Once the body acclimates to eating once a day, it turns to stored fat for fuel, and eventually, your body is trained to want less food. Most people lose weight with this regimen without having to monitor their portion sizes or count calories, but some people still keep track of how much they eat and when. It's up to you. Some diets claim that eating as many as six meals a day will rev up your metabolism, and keep yourself from getting hungry. The only problem is that eating constantly throughout the day may have helped led to the obesity epidemic. Eating more meals a day encourages food obsession and overconsumption. It also makes it easier to go over your daily calorie limits. The truth is it that eating six meals a day does not have a big impact on your metabolism. While it may help your body burn 10 or so more calories through the constant process of digestion, this can be offset by how many more calories you will most likely consume. Some experts say not eating for long periods of time will slow your metabolism. It would take three days of fasting to have any noticeable impact on your metabolism. It seems that the more you eat, the more you want to eat. Everybody has experienced this. When you start eating more often, you feel hungrier more often as well. This leads to food obsession and overconsumption. The opposite affect happens as well. The less you eat, the less you feel like eating. When trying to lose or maintain weight, it's easier to get a calorie reduction through eating less often. In the end, eating six meals a day makes you want to eat more, and more often than not, that's exactly what happens. Not everybody will be satisfied with a one meal a day lifestyle. Some people will prefer to spread their nutritional intake throughout the day. Eating 2 to 3 meals a day will still provide many of the same benefits. Some nutritionists caution against restricting food to only one meal a day and warn that it may foster an unhealthy relationship with food. Some nutritionists claim that restricting meals to once a day can encourage obsessing on food. While this may be true for some, many people who have switched to a one meal a day lifestyle may also notice a significant decrease in hunger and a healthier relationship food. When eating only one meal a day, the body and mind eventually become programmed to think about food less and to only become hungry when you have programmed your body to expect food. Other experts question the claim that eating one big meal a day helps the body detoxify. Also, this process of eating one meal a day does not eliminate extra water unless you actually are not drinking anything else throughout the day either, which is an awful idea. Water may increase your weight temporarily if you are drinking heaps of it, but does not actually cause weight gain or bulkiness. During OMAD and other intermittent lifestyles, having fewer meals a day only work to reroute when you have your energy intake. Never on this lifestyle change should you significantly reduce your overall calories for weight loss. While the liver and kidneys are always working to detoxify your system, fasting produces extra benefits because you are not adding in more toxins that may interfere with the process. Drinking plenty of water will also help flush out excess water and toxins from your body. This way of eating might not be for everyone, but if you feel like your eating plan is making you bloated or bulky, one meal a day might be something worth trying. Here's how to do it. Too few calories and your metabolism will eventually slow down. You might lose weight, but not efficiently. This will also make maintaining a healthy weight much harder, as you'll be more prone to gain weight when you eat normally again. You can adjust the time of day when you eat your main meal later, if necessary. It's okay to treat yourself, but don't over-do it. If you feel light-headed at any point, eat! Everyone can tailor OMAD to their own personal life. Don't see this as an all-or-nothing, strict plan. I generally cook my own meals, and that helps significantly. As with any new habit you want to develop in life, it will take one to three weeks to adapt. Keep vegetables, nuts, hard-boiled eggs, and other healthy snacks handy. Eating one meal a day may not be enough for you! Drugs, supplements, and natural remedies may have dangerous side effects. If pregnant or nursing, consult with a qualified provider on an individual basis. Seek immediate help if you are experiencing a medical emergency. Hi Amber, It seems you have not read up on the research with regards to fasting and it's benefits. I suggest you have a look into it and perhaps look up Dr. Fung who has done a lot of research into how fasting can counter act diabetes and allow the body to burn more fat. If the human species did not adapt to go without food for prolonged hours then we wouldn't be here. The first thing is to make sure that you still have weight to lose Are you close to or at your ideal weight? The second thing to do is to start monitoring how much you are eating Are you eating more than you think you are? Finally you can just keep going for a few more weeks and see if anything changes Sometimes weight loss may stall or not show up for a few weeks. OMAD is not necessarily a weight loss diet, it is simply changing the timing of when you eat. If you are overweight I would suggest cutting out processed and prepackaged foods, eat out less, eat more whole and natural foods, and increase physical activity for weight loss. Seems simple, but it really works! The idea of omad is that you do not need to eat many meals a day for optimal health. You can receive benefits through eating less times a day, but should never drastically cut calories for weight loss. If you or anyone is struggling eating one or two bigger meals a day, then it may not be the right eating pattern for you. My goal weight is to get down to 150 pounds by march 31st! I drink coffee and water and lunch I eat whatever then I workout for an hour a day cardio and weights. I love REAL mashed potatoes and eat until I'm stuffed at dinner. Always have a midnight snack, that really irritates my wife. Sure it sounds bad but, I stay pretty healthy for an old man. Plenty of exercise in the summer, not enough in the winter, near the Canadian Border. Just don't feel like eating during the day. I always said,, hardly anyone ate 3 meats a day 150 years ago and before, unless they killed a large animal. Then they had to eat it fast. If a time traveler from 1850 landed here he would wonder how so many people got so fat. I do believe many people are predisposed to gaining weight. My wife eats a small meal 2 or 3 times a day. Overall she eats a lot less than me and much healthier. She battles weight constantly. I must be immune to it? Either that or, there is something to waiting until dinner time to eat? I've been on OMAD regimen now for four weeks. It's been hard because I love my food but I am used to it now.. The trick is to keep the food very interesting and full of flavour herbs and spices are a great way to make food enjoyable and interesting.. Boredom and repetition is the killer.. I can't believe the amount of sugar and fat we are encouraged to eat is incredible and it's all rubbish. I just started this way of eating about 2 days ago. It's a little hard but I'm adjusting. Thanks for your info. The hardest part so far is trying to find foods I like many are healthy to add up to 1500 calories. I can't eat that many vegetables. I'm afraid of slowing my weight loss down by now consuming enough calories. Anyway, thanks for your page. I'm finding it informative. I just think that the whole concept of intermitted fasting is fascinating and it has really helped me in such a short period of time, the results are crazy good. Its kinda like a wanna shout it from the rooftops. Everybody's story however is different, we are not starving ourselves we eat well its just we choose to do so once a day. If you are a person who skips breakfast but eats lunch and dinner are you equally stupid? Me I choose to eatbone less time a day than those people and find I am less hungry during the day than I ever was... I dont eat half the amount if chocolate and crisps chips that I used to and my energy levels are through the roof.. I was constantly hungry, as well as worried that I wouldn't be able to feed my children. That this is what you want to do. If your taking insulin injections they, from what I've heard and read will need to be monitored and adjusted during fasting as too much insulin is as bad as too little.... Now the weight is falling off, but in a steady healthy way. I eat at dinner time, chicken, meat or fish with plenty of veg. I avoid potatoes but once a week have a large portion or pasta or rice. Cause I love chilli and spagballs, its that simple..... This is a lifestyle not a diet so enjoy what you eat but mostly try to keep it healthy and you'll reach your goals.. Then don't eat again for 23 hours.... Neev25 and slimIn2018 I've been meaning to write a new article on a sample meal plan for OMAD. In the meantime eating whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and lean meats are generally suggested. What you should eat depends on your own personal health and goals. A physician, nutrition coach, or dietitian can best help you determine your needs. I am 59 years young, diabetic 2, morbidly obese 145 kg at 165 cm. At the moment I can't exercise much because a dented knee cap I had at age 15 is just starting to cause issues. Thing is, I don't like the idea of cramming so many calories I need, or not need, into just one meal. Also, how would I get the nutrition I need in one meal. Saying all that, I am willing to give it a go starting today the date of 10 th January 2018. I will login and let you know if any ones interested. What have I got to lose?...... Just to clarify while some experts think that eating one meal a day increases food related thoughts and obsession, I find that eat less often actually makes me think about food less often. The opposite is true for me as well. The more often I eat, the more I think about food. So if you are interested in converting to an OMAD lifestyle try it for a full week an see how you respond. If you feel it is making you more obsessed with food then it might not be for you. Also remember that eating one meal a day does not mean that you eat one standard sized meal. It is best if you eat larger sized meal until satisfied. In fact the more water you consume the better. As far as what to consume, I suggest eating whole foods that are fresh and not pre-made. It will help you to eat less and be healthy on the inside as well. Consult a physician if you have any health concerns on what you should be eating. So, here we go on your proposal - day one! A couple of questions - you mention getting rid of excess water, though I've heard often enough not to skimp on it, that the more the merrier, and 2l per day minimum is desirable. And that's my usual consumption; should I take it easier on the water?! Question two is regarding what I'll eat on that single meal. Living alone, and being practicality-oriented if it's troublesome to prepare out wash up I won't do it I'm planning to alternate Brazilian rice and beans with pasta and whatever sauce. Starting at 93kg for 1. Metric not imperial, and yes, I look and feel like crap. I am on keto diet and have been eating a big meal before bed comprising of fats and protein. I have significantly reduced tummy which i was not able to since a year of gyming. Also hunger has come down drastically compared to 6 meals a day i used to have once upon a bad time. Carbs are villain, Fats are hero and Protein sweet Actress. Really excited because of all the results i have heard so far. This post motivated me even more, but i have a question.. Since i know i am gonna be hungry first week or maybe even more, is there some effective way to kill hunger without eating any food? Previously I was doing the 5:2 diet but do find that fast days on 500 kcal can be difficult, moved over to this and it seems easy. I have actually started to enjoy the feeling of hunger because I know my body is burning fat. It is also a more manageable diet when you have children. You know you only have to wait till tea time to have a nice meal. It was totally unplanned and mainly due to a life change mental health problems where my whole eating habit changed. I am now just under 15 stone have hardly any body fat whatsoever and have lost 4 inches off my waist, neck was 18 half now 16 half inches , The thing with me is I cant help feeling like I am ill sometimes I ache so bad, have had full bloods done everything is ok, I actually feel a lot better when waking, previously I would wake feeling so sick, now I'm up and feel great for the most part. I just think we are embedded with weight loss is bad, despite how we are losing it, if that makes sense, every single day people I see regularly will comment how much weight I have lost and it send me into a panic. Also recently read I should be getting 2500 calories a day to maintain weight just makes sense if you are eating once in any 24 hours your body begins to use fat reserves and weight falls off. This makes sense but even after speaking to an ex gym fanatic who was 18 stone no juice natural and is now 15 stone he said he went through the same thing worrying , is this like some kind of body dis morphia reversed, think there is definitely physiological attachment. I started one meal a day a few days ago, and I love it. Before I used to be so hungry all of the time and snacking. But now my body only gets hungry during 5 or 6. Six meals a day is a waste of time. The more the person is snacking, the more they are training the body to want to eat. I believe that as long you are eating enough calories for your body, then it is fine. It's about the calories. Then work to fix that problem or find another way of coping. You have to understand that you can't control your feelings, you have to feel them and accept them. You also have to love yourself enough to not be controlled by them. Eating patterns are habit. Once you allow yourself the time to develop a new habit OMAD , you'll see how easy it becomes over time and you won't even feel like eating when going through your emotions. ANY ADVICE TO AN EMOTIONAL STRESS EATER? I DONT EAT MUCH REALLY BUT I DO EAT WHEN IM BORED OR JUST FEELING SAD. BUT DEFINITELY MY FIRST MEAL OF THE DAY. IM ALWAYS TRYING TO LEARN ON WAYS TO STOP LETTING MY EMOTIONS GET THE BEST OF ME BUT I ALWAYS FIND MYSELF FAILING. MEAL PREPPING IS SOMETHING I AM TRYING TO DO RIGHT NOW AND I AM GOING TO STICK TO IT FOR AS LONG AS I CAN. I FIGURED SOME PROFESSUIONAL ADVICE WOULDNT HURT. It all depends on how many calories you consume during your meal. My suggestion would be to find out how much energy you are currently burning daily on average, and initially track your calories to make sure you are eating that much. Don't be surprised if you feel very full during your meal, that's actually normal when eating to maintain. My situation is totally different, I have always had a super fast metabolism and I actually am considered under weight for a 27 year old man of my height, but I'm healthy. I want to start OMAD because of the convenience. I am very active, running a business all day everyday, I want to be able to stop taking a break every 4 hours to eat. Being someone as active as I am burning calories all day and being too thin to chance losing weight, my question is, is it safe for me to switch to OMAD? And can I do it without losing weight? This month my goal is 9 lbs. Next is 8 lbs for a total of 40 lbs in 4 months. I eat my meal between 6 and 8 pm... Before I started my joints were sore especially in the morning. Now have no pain at all , psa is below one and cholesterol is down. It takes determination especially when others around you are eating, camping , travelling etc. But it is well worth it. Judge for yourself : I rarely eat meat except weekly steamed oily fish which I nibble on so put everything I need: raw eggs, fruit whole - skin, pips'n'all in most cases , veggies, nuts, grains, whey powder et al; in a Bullet-blender with water, varying the combinations for a good balance. I keep it in the fridge and slurp a mouthful when I feel the need. Start time doesn't matter but I always finish by 3pm. As it becomes too much, I reduce the volume. I drink lots of water and herbal teas too. Dropped 18kg 40lbs over 12 months having yo-yo'd since puberty - I'm 62 now. No hunger, no bloating, more energy, better sleep... Have been at my ideal weight for nigh on 12 months but maintain the same regimen and remain the same weight... Hubby and I just stared OMAD this week and we like how we feel. And when I feel like my energy is low or I need a little something I warm up chicken broth and eat it with a soup spoon. I just convinced hubby to try the chicken broth as well and he said it really helped. Everyone can tailor OMAD to their own personal life. Don't see this as a all or nothing strict plan. You still get so many benefits just from cutting down the amount of times you are processing food everyday. I've been doing this on and off whenever I've felt that I've let my body down and your own body will give you subtle feelings when it's time... Come on people I'm being so serious that I be been doing this for the last 12 years on and off that I know that food is a drug just like drugs... Think about it being a hit of cocaine! You did it yesterday and now your body wants it again! Your body knows it has access to these cheeseburgers and fries so it wants you to eat more if you've got the resources to acquire them. Back in the caveman days we didn't have MacDonald's to satiate our desires? Do it learned how to conserve energy. This meaning when food is plentiful.... We as humans won't die if we don't eat for a very long time three to four weeks! But if you feel hunger pains then yes it a little like a sandwich about 200 Cal's and you'll be fine! I know for a fact that humans can get by on one humongous meal till your hearts content and then take on they day and stay at a normal weight! Try it you won't die I promise! I don't count calories for my evening meal at all. Also one day a week I eat whatever I want at whatever time I want. I don't let it interfere with social activities either. If the ladies want to go to lunch or bring in a cake for a special occasion - I am there stuffing my face. I would say I eat once a day most weeks 6 days of 7 but on occasion 5 and I am still getting great results. I feel better look better. I also noticed this. I've been super conscious of how I've felt over the two previous weeks but other than feeling hungry at times, I have not been light headed or felt any fatigue. I still get in my gym time with my sister and I walk my dogs but I have desk job so I'm sedentary most of the day. If I have a snack I stick to carrots or an apple. I love that I don't have to try to track all my calories in three or four meals. I naturally ate like this when I was younger, I just wasn't that hungry throughout the day. But with family pressure to eat more I got in the habit of eating more throughout the day which has led me to gain a significant amount of weight. Over the last several years I tried to restrict and count my calories and exercise more all the things that you are traditionally supposed to do but it never really worked for me and when I would get down to 190 my weight would become stagnate. I started the one meal a day one month ago to the day today. I'm 37 years old and by far the biggest one of my friends. I started at 333 pounds and I'm now at 305 and feel like I'm 20. My energy level is huge, I used to come home and couch it, now I can't sit still get bored need to do something, take dog for walk or just play in garage. I went from having 3 meals a day to just one in 2 days, i felt good for the first 2 days maybe increased adrenaline , now i'm feel hungry and have brain fog. Should i have started with 2 meals then worked my way to one meal? The only thing I can say for myself is that when I was eating all throughout the day, I was more likely to have those problems then when I eat one to two meals in a day. I personally think that all comes down to food choice, and paying attention to what's going on with your body. This website uses cookies As a user in the EEA, your approval is needed on a few things.
