Hi,
Me:
F:20+
Height: 183cm (~6 ft)
Weight before OMAD: 96 kg
Weight currently: 92 kg
Weight Goal: 75
———————-
Today is my 7th day of OMAD and I just wanted to share my experience with others who are fasting as well at the moment.
I started on Monday and it is currently Sunday afternoon.
Pros/tipps:
- I have lost 4 KG (~9 lbs). Almost gave up until I saw how fast the results are. And yes, I know most of it is water.
- My stomach has less pain, as I am no longer binging.
- I eat my meals at 18:00 -19:00 (6-7 pm). Usually espresso gets me through the day.
- Tea after a meal helps reduce waking up at night to eat.
- during days off I find hobbies to kill time or I will go crazy.
- I set my goal to 800 cal a day but I won’t punish myself if it pushes to 1000.
- Appreciation of food and less food waste
- BEST PART: Save money! I used to spend all my money on food and I was actually able to put some in my savings acc. For once again!
- watching disgusting mukbangs lessens hungery
Cons:
- I constantly think about eating when I have nothing else to do. When I’m at work/school I barely notice anything but as soon as my 2 days off started, I was honestly really struggling to not accidentally eat something. On day 6 I accidentally ate two lemon Juice Vesicles after making lemon water.
- watching friends/colleagues eat during lunch.
- All of a sudden food is everywhere and everyday it’s more tempting…
- Thinking of calories every second.
Take it or not… even if it felt easy in the beginning, the body will need to get used to it so hard times will come. I am currently on my period, making this 10* harder but I amnso proud of myself for getting through this on my own without help. It really helped me with self discipline.
If I made it through my period then the rest will be easy!
Pls share your struggles, i have no one to talk about because I know they would judge me.
