What did it start getting easier for you?

[Heatman]

For those who are making use of omad diet plan, we all know how difficult it is when you have to wait for your window of eating to reach before you can have your one meal for the day. It's usually very difficult for most people when they began their weight loss journey using omad diet plans. 

How long did it take before you started finding it easy with your omad diet plans?

I don't do OMAD, so I can't answer this one.

I do 2MAD during the week, and then I do an extended fast from Friday dinner to Saturday dinner (24 hrs) or sometimes I even put it off to Sunday breakfast (about 40 hrs). 

I currently don't have an interest in doing OMAD, lol. I love to eat and don't really have an interest in 2MAD but I am doing it for my health

ONAD is not the least bit difficult for me.
I didn’t choose to do ONAD , it chose me.
When I started eating carni I was still eating by the clock. Breakfast early in the morning. Lunch around noon. Supper around 5:00pm.
After about a month or so into it I noticed that I was eating even though I wasn’t hungry. So I stopped eating breakfast because I just wasn’t hungry in the mornings.
Then as time went by I started eating later in the day because I’d be busy around my place and just forget to eat. Then after eating lunch around one or two in the afternoon I’d have to force myself to eat something before 6:00pm as I don’t like to eat after 6:00.
Then it dawned on me, why am I eating when I’m not hungry? If I’m eating to fuel my body then why not just let my body tell me when it want fuel.
So I just started eating when I get hungry. That might be around 10:00 or 1:00 or 3:00pm. It varies. If I get hungry again, later in the day, then I’ll eat again but it’s rare that that happens.
I have learned to listen to my body and what it needs.

It was not easy when I started omad considering the fact that I am someone that enjoys eating more during the day. However, watching the success stories of those that have been successful with the One Meal a Day plan helped to keep me on a positive side that I can make it happen as well.

I'll be honest, I used to eat one meal a day when I was younger (early teens), my parents kicked me out (long story short my dad didn't know how to deal with girls so for him it was easier to kick me out and encourage me to get pregnant, so I didn't have to be his problem.) Anyways, for a while I was homeless so I would only really eat once a day because it was all I could afford and instead of eating a lot I wanted to save my money to be able to rent an apartment. Once I got a place and I was able to eat more than once the temptation was there, but I had decided to stick to eating once a day as it was just routine. As I got older, I did start to eat more but ultimately went back to eating once a day. At first it was harder because when I would hang out with friends one thing they always wanted to do was eat out and it really wasn't what I wanted to do but I wanted to spend time with them. I got used to it though, and I'm happy I decided to stick to it because even though I had temptations I had kept a lean body which was more important to me than food. 

Now I tend to eat once maybe twice a day and it isn't difficult at all because it became more of a routine. Even if I get hungry in between I try to distract myself so I don't notice that I'm hungry.

Mine was more natural than by choice. I started carnivore still eating by the clock.

When I started eating when I was hungry it sort of morphed into OMAD. I started off eating by the clock and then when I ate when I was hungry it was once per day. There were also times when it stretched out to the following day.

I went back and checked some entries and I think it was about 6-8 weeks into the diet. I think it was actually sooner but for a stretch I was eating our evenign meal with my wife but not really hungry. Just eating.

All this went down in your early teens? Wowsers! I'm sorry you had to deal with any of that at such a young age.

Your comment caught me off guard.

i do better with 2 meals per day spaced 2-4 hours apart 

when I was trying 1 meal per day I would eat 2 meals in one sitting lol
