What time of day do you have your dinner? Do you get hungry in the afternoon? When I work out consistently I find it hard not to eat a lot.
The OMAD thing seems unattainable with my current lifestyle. But I have a very healthy friend who swears by it as well. Personally not eating at night seems to be more than enough of a sacrifice. Not eating an early breakfast comes natural to me.
- riversflow 4y agoI try to eat between 6 and 9PM; I try not to eat to close too bed time as it does seem to affect my sleep quality. I've also found it helps to start with a piece of fruit--today a handful of blackberries. If I'm trying to gain weight I make a point to eat on the earlier side to spread my dinner out. Socially I use the same approach that I do for being vegetarian. I don't outright declare it, I simply just decline, "I don't eat break/brunch/lunch/this early/meat/fish." goes over a lot better than, "I'm on X diet/eating schedule".
- dmix 4y agoInteresting. So when you go out to a restaurant you just order a soup or a drink or something?
- riversflow 4y agoExactly. It was kinda awkward at first, but after the first dozen or so times doing it I realized that the servers don't really think that much of it. Most of the time when asked what I'd like I just say, "Oh, I'm okay with water." It might make a difference that I live on the West coast(California), so special diets are pretty normal.
