What do you think? I've seen people say going OMAD kills your metabolism and leaves you hungry throughout the day. But I find I usually feel much more satisfied and less hungry than with several smaller meals. Right now I am doing 1500 calories a day. For the past couple of weeks, I was generally doing around 200 cals for breakfast (protein bar and coffee) and then two meals of 400-800 for lunch and dinner, then making up the difference with a snack. My experience with this kind of diet was that I always felt like I could eat more. It felt like I was eating a good amount, but not enough to stop me from being hungry, and thus I always wanted to snack and had to resist the impulses.
Recently I started doing OMAD, having just a coffee in the morning and then having a full lunch/dinner sometime later with a large 1300-1500 calorie meal that really, really filled me up. The result is that I don't feel hungry at all for the rest of the day and even into the morning of the next day. I don't wake up hungry and can go on with just my coffee until the afternoon. My go-to meal for this is a local Asian chain with a large bowl containing white rice, teriyaki chicken, veggies, and a fried egg. Pretty similar to a Panda Express plate with half white rice half veggies and teriyaki chicken, but a little better. That leaves me full-on food coma knocked out and not hungry at all. Chipotle bowl with extra rice, beans and every veggie with no cheese or sour cream also fills me up. Do you think this kind of diet is bad in the long run or is it too dependent on other factors to say for sure?
