Looking at reviews basically, you don\u2019t feel deprived of food, and you feel less urges to eat snacks throughout the day. This might take some getting used to, but if you get used to it, it could be a total game changer and not even feel like a diet! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intermittent fasting is when you make sure you don\u2019t eat (fast) for 16 hours in a row. Most people take away breakfast to achieve this, therefore, skipping a meal. It\u2019s restrictive, but also isn\u2019t that impossible to follow, especially if you don\u2019t really feel hungry in the mornings anyway.  <br>\nThe OMAD diet takes this to the extreme. OMAD means one meal a day. Sounds crazy and impossible right? So instead of fasting for 16 hours a day, you fast for 23 hours every single day. Obviously, you consume a larger meal than you would if you ate 4-5 meals a day like most people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The rules for this diet consist of: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Must eat in the same four hour time block every day <\/li><li>You CAN drink calorie-free beverages throughout the 23 hours. (Black coffee, water)<\/li><li>A dinner sized meal<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The benefits of this diet consist of: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You don\u2019t need to be crazy about counting the calories or macros for that one meal since it\u2019s the only meal you are consuming for the day. Especially, if you keep it at the dinner size plate size (aka you can\u2019t have 7 Big Macs from McDonald&#8217;s for your \u201cone\u201d meal). <\/li><li>You may not feel that after eating lunch at 2:30 slump. Why? You\u2019re not eating lunch. <\/li><li>Almost impossible to be at a caloric surplus when you are just eating one meal a day. <\/li><li>It\u2019s the freedom to eat what you want. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom line, if you are feeling like intermittent fasting isn\u2019t doing it for you, maybe take it up a notch and try OMAD. It\u2019s shockingly not dangerous like you might think and can be extremely effective!  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This extreme intermittent fasting weight loss diet is the latest trend.
