If I eat two meals in one sitting and then wait 23 hours before my next meal is this a form of intermittent fasting? I still get the same amount of calories as a normal person but there's a long period where I get nothing.
(I've been skipping breakfast my entire life so I don't really get the 3 meal thing.)
- jobigoud 7y agoYes, it's known as 23:1 Intermittent Fasting or more commonly OMAD, one meal a day.
- crimsonalucard 7y agoIs it? The thing is I'm eating two meals in one sitting so it's still two meals a day. I typically thought intermittent fasting meant one meal per day. Does what I'm doing still count?
- jobigoud 7y agoI think the amount of food doesn't matter, I would say if it's in one sitting it count as one meal. People that do OMAD usually eat much more than what they would eat in a normal meal, otherwise it wouldn't be sustainable in the long term. Intermittent Fasting just means there is a 12+ hour period between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the next day. The most typical form is two meals a day in 16:8 fashion.
