Black licorice is a terrible vice for me because it seems like less of one. I do OMAD + hiking + zero alcohol, and lost about 20lbs in 3mos as well. I've done omad before, but was sedantary and still drinking and while it worked, I gained it all back when I started adding lunches again, but it was because of being sedantary. OMAD is effectively calorie restriction anyway because the longer you do intermittant fasting, the lower your average calorie consumption becomes over that period. Can't say it's healthy or smart, but it worked for me. Current play is adapting this OMAD + hiking + zero alcohol for the winter to be fewer hikes but adding stronglifts 5x5 3-4x a week as a routine, which should consume any marginal meals and create the metabolic demand as I start lifting heavier again. I've found that sobriety is a free super power as well, can't recommend it highly enough for cutting out impaired judgment snacks.
