Do two solid 19:5 days make a trend?: I've been trying for years to get my IF (intermittent fast) 19:5 (nineteen-hours fasting per-day and five-hours for eating, per-day) sorted and it looks like I've finally convinced my actual self to actually do it. I know it's only for two days! But I've done a lot with two successful days in a row. And each day is a restricted 1,500 low carb day, too.

From one burrito-a-day to one bowl-a-day in my one meal-a-day diet: tl;dr: OBAD once meant, to me, one burrito-a-day but now it means one bowl-a-day. My 24:.25 daily intermittent fasting eating window from the early afternoon to first thing in the morning. My one bowl-a-day is a big bowl at 48oz-a-day. Here's what I prepare and eat.

Maybe it's the wheat, maybe it's the gluten, maybe it's the carbs, possibly the portion, maybe the sodium, could be the fat: Last night sucked. Yesterday, I made a heaping portion of Angel Hair Pasta with store-bought Ragu Alfredo sauce and a bunch of chopped store-bought sliced honey ham and made it into a giant happy vat of lunch—all because I really wanted to eat noodles with a mug full of disposable wooden chopsticks that remind me of growing up in Hawaii.

My dirty OMAD: tl;dr: my intermittent fasting golden ticket is a one-meal-a-day framework that doesn’t chase making calories or macros. Sometimes my daily calories will be 800 and sometimes 2,000, and that’s OK.

My One Burrito a Day (OBAD) One Meal a Day (OMAD) Diet: For a couple weeks now, I have been following the one meal a day—OMAD—diet. I am trying it out because after reading about and trying the keto diet, which is very prescriptive, I wanted something easy that amalgamates intermittent fasting, one very satisfying meal that fulfills all the calories I need for a day that actually satiates me, and no food to cheat with in my fridge, cupboard, or larder.

One-Meal-a-Day (OMAD) with a Preference for IF and OBAD: Things are going better with the diet. I refuse to keep any food in the house. I am even tempted to dump my stone-ground grits and my stone-ground oats—including yummy, yummy, bars of butter.

Trying one meal a day—OMAD: If you go down the Keto diet rabbit hole, you'll end up reading about IF—intermittant fasting; and, if you spend enough time on reddit, you'll eventually discover the OMAD subreddit: One Meal A Day. It's simple: eat like a king once-a-day, somewhere between 4pm and 8pm, but only for an hour. Then, stop eating for the next 23-hours.

Weight's not melting⁠—but it's coming⁠—off on the OBAD OMAD: I took my weight this AM after my morning "rituals" but before drinking any water or coffee. Here's what my Wi-Fi Withings scale shared with my 44.3k Twitter followers.
