The thing is, within just a few days of being in lockdown in Malaysia due to the Coronavirus, I found it way too easy to eat more than I am used to. Indeed staying at home and trying a restrictive eating pattern is the last thing you want to do. This is probably the number one question I have been asked this week. I reveal my daily measurements for my weight (kg), sleep (hours), activity levels (steps), food and beverage intake, and how I felt each day. Stick with it though and discover my experience of following the OMAD diet protocol for 7-days straight. So, I thought why not give the OMAD diet a try for the next 7-days. With staying at home more now my energy requirement is lower than usual so I was concerned about weight gain as a wandered around my condo. I can see the appeal to some hardcore intermittent fasting fanatics, I was keen to understand if the science supports the protocol and whether I could do it for 7-days, and importantly would it work for me. In principle, it’s straight forward but for most of us in practice certainly not easy. The idea is to eat within a one-hour time window and fast for the remaining 23-hours each day. The protocol is really simple in theory but is on the extreme end of the different intermittent fasting protocols you can follow. If you have ever looked into intermittent fasting then you have likely come across the most extreme version, called the One Meal a Day diet, or OMAD for short.
