I am on my 3rd day of OMAD. No pressure for food. Going smoothly. I am just testing my self whether I can do fasting. I used to envy people who could fasting which I am not. Thanks Dr Ekberg for a simple solution for a difficult problem.

Adopted and adapted 2mad as part of my daily living for more than a year now. And my colleagues and friends never failed to tell me "you should not be skipping breakfast, it's the most important meal of the day". Well, I completely agree, I never skip it, I only take it at a later hour - breaking fast at noon time.

I'm 71 and my wife is 68. We've been married nearly 50 years and during that time she has rarely eaten breakfast. I used to keep on to her that breakfast is the most important meal of the day but she wouldn't listen. She believed in eating when she was hungry. Nowadays, I realise she was on the right track and I rarely eat breakfast myself. In our 50 years of marriage she has rarely been ill and always had an amazing amount of energy - she puts me to shame. And she has never had a weight problem. But I have to say, she'll eat any old 'junk food'. Chocolate, biscuits, buns, cake - she has a sweet tooth but everything in moderation. Plus healthy meals as well - we rarely eat processed meals.

I actually GAINED a pound. Going back to my 18:6 for every day because I had been losing weight on that. I think all OMAD does is slow your metabolism down so it's harder to lose weight.

I am 68 years-old, weighed 164 and when I started OMAD and 2MAD Keto one month ago. I lost 11 pounds. I was eating a tremendous amount of carbs and sweets daily. The hardest part of this diet was having to eat more food than I could hold, albeit very high quality food. Amazingly, I've suffered no hunger. At the same time, I had started walking 30 to 45 minutes per day. The results? My short-term memory has returned on steroids as I can think more clearly. I am more energetic than I have been in many years. All my joint and muscle aches and pains have miraculously disappeared. I feel more than 10 years younger, all in one month's time.

This is my eating time pattern daily. I think it's the best time for us (who's taking OMAD diet) to eat because it makes our sleep better without insomnia and it feels good when waking up. Hunger strikes at 2pm onwards but not that bad, I just drink water till 6pm and *tadaaa* it's the best time of the day 😁😁

Ive been on OMAD for 5 years, Mon to Fri and 2MAD Sat Sun. Once you are there and doing it, it just becomes the norm. It’s definitely a lifestyle. I have way more time than others, regaining at least 2 hours a day from jot eating breakfast and lunch. I have very consistent energy too.

I’ve been OMAD for 18 months now. I love it and I have no desire to change! I got to my goal weight and now am effortlessly maintaining. I love sitting down and having a huge feast - it feels so much more natural than being hungry trying to limit calories and eating stuff I don’t like that much anyway. I feel totally freed from dieting. Thanks for the info!

Along with digestive ENZYMES, as Dr E suggested, should help your body digest the protein the way you did when younger and should! No more bloating! To assist your body this way, everyone should be talking a Multi Vitamin Mineral supplement, to GIVE your body what you’re not getting from our depleted food sources of today’s food! It will also allow your body to get the needed “precursors’ to help you to start making your own HCL to make your digestion better, more efficient and less uncomfortable!

How much weight did u lose using 2mad

My initial goal to begin keto, 3 years ago, was to lower my A1c. At the time, I was 240lbs. (61, F). I didn't read about fat adaption until after about 2 weeks when I noticed I didn't feel hunger. I still WANTED to eat, mentally wanted food, but wasn't hungry. After 6 mos. I learned a lot about being fat adapted and everything made sense. God bless it. Effortlessly, losing weight, going from 240lbs for more than 20 years (having gone up to 292 at several times) and landing at 150lbs with an A1c of 5.2 (from 8.3). Now 3 days OMAD, a couple of other 2MAD, with fasting weekly and longer monthly. Go keto!!!!

But the weekend I don't feel the need to eat 2 meals let alone even 1 I could pass. I'm afraid if I fast for more than 2 days I eat stupidly on Monday morning before going to work. Thanks for the topic Doctor!

I began OMAD 2 weeks ago. I am overweight with T2 diabetes and am finding it easy to accomplish. I find that I am not often hungry, but when I am, I have tea or broth. I don't have to worry about preparing 3 healthy meals a day and, as I am not a fan of cooking, having to prepare only 1 meal a day is a definite plus. I have lost 15 lbs in my first 2 weeks and I feel so much better already. I have a long way to go, but I feel that this plan of eating will be sustainable for me.

I started doing IF 3 years ago.I began with 16/8 and then 18/6 which is my favourite. Once I had done several 20/4 I tried my first OMAD and I now do OMAD for 7 days once a month throughout the year. Once you are fat-adapted it is easy to do OMAD. I have done a lot of 48 hour fasts and once a year I do a 5 day fast. I can't recommend IF ,OMAD, etc highly enough. And it all started when i first watched one of Sten's videos.. The best health/wellness channel on YT !!

But as my appetite went away, I’ve eaten much less. Wishing you success.

Been doing 20:4 2MAD for three months. Lost 2 stone.. Been using Berberine also. Now started OMAD to give my weight loss a boost. Intermittent fasting and keto is the way forward for me. I'm a 57 year old woman. Always struggled with my weight. This way of eating is the only thing that has worked for me to lose weight. I also feel great. I used to get a lot of boils - they have completely gone now. I had a couple of tumours which have now disappeared. I was suffering menopausal brain fog. This has now gone.

I do 2 meals-no snacks a day and works fine for me. Being 73 yo, I don't need to starve myself for 23 hours every day. I am not a camel. 13-14 hours daily is good for me which is what I call my fast period from 6pm-8am. thanks for the video.

I am happy that I found this channel. I am 55 years old, 5 feet 5 inches and I weigh 60kg. Doing OMAD has helped me to reverse prediabetes.

Raised on 3 meals a day. I’m a big guy and used to FEEL like I was going to die if I didn’t. After going KETO, I started eating less and less due to reduced appetite. Eventually, I found that all I needed was one meal a day and SOME days.... I feel as if I could skip eating altogether. Crazy to think that I, such a big guy, could be content with one meal a day. I lost 65lbs without any exercise at all, (too busy working). I drive for a living, and thus, I’m not as active as I’d like to be... so KETO together with Intermittent Fasting was the easiest way I’ve ever found, to drop a lot of weight.

MUCH easier going omad or 2mad than what I would've believe before I tried it. Started my diet in June, and today (8 September), I've lost 20 kg. I'm 190 cm, and my weight now is 94,8 kg. Feels great, but I'm aiming for 80 kg. Important to say that when I started I didn't really know much about how everything works; just went with the "I'm gonna eat big meals, but with as much low carb ingredients as possible, since I've always enjoyed feeling full after eating, and I didn't want to go hungry. So basically ditched potatoes, pasta, rice and the other hi carb stuff, and went with cauliflower, broccoli, egg and good quality hamburger. I used hot salsa for flavor, since it was low carb and spicey. I used cottage cheese, cucumber and carrots between meals to stave off hunger. Didn't know about omad and 2mad then. When I hit the plateau, I started Research ing more about this, and 2mad, omad and once in a while 24-48 hour fasting has really done the work for me, getting me off that plateau!

2MAD is perfect for me. But I don’t understand why I am never thirsty. And if I force myself to drink water, my stomach feels immediately bloated.

So true... I find myself mentally hungry after dinner, but I'm completely fine (not hungry) at all in the morning.

So weird to me how ppl talk about weight loss but never talk about female menstruation. This is a huge factor in weight loss or lack of and a big part of hunger or decrease in hunger. I don’t stress when I plateau around ovulation or before my period because I track my bodies differences. I also know a few days after ovulation I will lose that water weight, but during I will hold onto it. Ovulation also brings on serious hunger for me so I really need to be disciplined.Hormones play a huge role in weight loss especially for females and nobody talks about this. Track your cycle because this will help rationalize your bodies weight loss and you’ll know the best weeks to work out harder and when to relax

Hey Doc, just wanted to throw a big "thank you" out there for all the videos you put up Ran across intermittent fasting on a machinery channel, and found it pretty easy since I was recouperating from a motorcycle accident (making food was a hassle...) Quit using artificial sweeteners and cut back carbs about the same time, and lost 50 lbs without any dramas Ran across your channel and found I was doing a bunch of what you recommend. And whaddya know - seems to work! No longer get so weak and shaky if I'm not stuffing food in my face every 2 hours. Just did a 36 hour fast last week, gonna try adding that into the mix once every couple weeks or so Now, taking your advice about seed oils and phasing those out...

You can have the benefits of both, by eating your two meals in a 2-3 hours window. Your fasting period is almost the same as for omad and it is much easier to get all the nutrients you need. Personally I eat a moderate easy to make meal of 600-700 kcal coming home from work. Then I start cooking dinner an hour or so later and eat a slightly bigger meal for dinner. I may also snack a little bit between these two meals to make sure I get all the nutrients I need. Works very well for me.

This is the best channel I've found for health, diet, and lifestyle advice and recommendations! It's wonderful! I'm a 48-year-old woman. Most of my life, I've naturally eaten two meals a day and have rarely been a snacker. I was keto for three years in my early-mid forties, but started feeling less great on it. In hindsight, I think I was getting too much protein those last six months. I eat low-moderate carb, usually 50-80 grams a day -- sometime less, sometimes more. The carbs I eat are mainly chickpeas, lentils, vegetables, berries, and the occasional treat. My weight stays stable unless I imbibe too much alcohol. If I include too much wine or margaritas (even low-carb ones), fat-burning stops, and I get weight around my middle again. While I usually eat two meals a day, sometimes I do OMAD, and sometimes I do OMAD plus am earlier small tapas like some hummus and veggies or half a roasted pepper and some goat cheese for a midday snack before my main meal at dinner. It's not planned. My body guides me. My eating window isn't fixed, but naturally falls between 11:30 a.m. and 4:30-5:00 p.m. as I usually awake really early and go to bed around 9:30 p.m. I know fasting can be different for women's physiology, but I've always eaten pretty much this same way. For activity, I live in a very remote area and have to hike in and out of my house. I'm on the ocean and being in the water; cleaning the hull of my boat; hiking in the jungle; and walking on the beach or traversing the river to reach my small town are normal parts of my day. Once a week, I have to carry all my groceries up the mountain to my house and all the garbage out to the trash boat, so I get reasonable activity despite working on the computer the bulk of the day. I don't do HIIT or workouts or any kind of regular fitness plan. Hope some of that can be useful. Thank you so much , Dr. Eckberg, for all the information you provide and your easy, well-mannered style of delivery. EDITED TO ADD: For those of you interested in macros, I tend to eat 20% protein, 20-25% carb, and 55-60% fat. Most of my fat grams are olive oil, avocado, cheese, and nuts.

@@Endless.embrace Hi. Since posting that a year ago, I have gone much more to the carnivore side of a way of eating. I'll give some examples of meals I used to eat though in hopes of answering your question. Some favorite meals were: 1. Roasted red and yellow (or mini sweet) bell peppers stuffed with goat cheese. I mixed herbs and a little olive oil in the goat cheese, baked them, then drizzled them with olive oil and pine nuts. 2. Salmon (poach for 4.5 minutes in simmering water (5.5 if frozen). I'd make some couscous or quinoa and place the salmon on a bed of the grain. Cover with a fat-based sauce like a cream sauce or butter-herb sauce. 3. Steak however you like it with a Diane sauce or a cream-based sauce. 4. Mexican food. If you go light on the tortillas, Mexican food seems to generally naturally have these macros. Hope that gives some ideas. (I have gradually changed to about 5% carbs and mostly meat, eggs, and some cheese and feel even better, am more strong and fit, look younger, and have no menopausal symptoms, and everyone's body is different.)

This is an awesome video! This is the video that needs to be shared when you want to explain the benefits of fasting/OMAD/2MAD. It has it all!! Thanks Doc Ekberg!

for the sake of consistency it should be called 0mad; 1mad; 2mad and way2mad

This is the most useful channel on KZread when it come to health benefits! Thanks a lot Dr. Sten Ekberg! You are a real gem!

I decided to do the hard core route omad and its a week today. I have experienced all sorts of side effects from heart burn,running stomach, hunger pangs, I think even high pulse. My body is fighting me but the benefits are too greater to miss out. Everyday I feel stronger and less hungry. Never thought this was possible. Thank you.

Following Dr Ekberg, I have lost 25 lbs in 3 months. My reason for trying intermittent fasting was for autophagy. The weight loss at 60 years of age, is an added bonus and an outward sign that I am healthier. Thank you Doctor Ekberg. Side note I am confident that I will be able to maintain this even during the holidays where I seem to put on weight every year. I have found that autophagy is a better motivator than weight loss because what good is losing weight if you're not healthy.

I lost 80 lbs in 5 months with Keto/omad. I was 65 years old. Im 72 now. Doing exercise has built my muscles up. I'm adding, not losing, muscle mass. The gym has increased all of my muscles. People gyms get you in healthy shape -THEY DO NOT REDUCE WEIGHT. Most of my gym mates, M & F are ripped, not thin at all. My waist dropped from 33 to 30. I still weigh exactly the same as i did when i started HIIT.

I’m so grateful to you. Thanks for you accurate and clear information. You are so great!

Finally some one talks about two meals a day!!! Am so grateful... Thanks doc

Really loving the alternating days of 2MAD/OMAD- seems to really agree with me. So many wasted years feeling horrible- wish I had known all this years ago but better late than never and definitely never too late to feel great. Thanks for sharing your time and wisdom!

Just ordered your autophagy tee...very cute and will be a great way to open conversation with others to help them. Jen

Wow, great teaching, you have changed my life. Understanding the mechanism will produce lasting change for me, thank you. I am 49, growing some belly fat, bodily fat, feeling lethargic and unmotivated and finding it hard to resist chocolate. Now that I understand insulin resistance in its entirety I will change my eating habits forever. It starts with sugar. It starts with intermittent fasting. It starts with 2mad/Omad. It starts with HIIT and other recreational exercise. I am on the path.

Great video. I’ve seen too many similar presentations to remember and this is probably the best for those seeking clarity and information.

Its truly liberating that you dont have to think about planning meals

I just began this, but I have to plan my meal to have enough food to get my caloric goal in.

I do appreciate the depth of explanation the Dr. Sten provides, as well as his hair style.

Your videos are pure gold and should be shown in every school in the country. Maybe they'll actually do that once 100% of the population has diabetes.

Maybe that % of diabetic people is actually the goal? Health is a very profitable business.

Clear explanation. Thank you. Been doing alternative day fasting and now switched to five day fast (on day three.) It is so true that once you are fat adapted, and with some fasting practice, it really does get easier.

I am already following OMAD /2MAD alternatively. Thanks 🙏 for all your previous videos. They helped me tremendously. With ❤️from🇮🇳🇴🇲

Such an informative video and cuts through all the noise on the internet about omad and 2mad. Thank you Dr Sten 🙏🏽

I love your lectures, Dr. Ekberg. A lot of things are becoming much clearer. I do OMAD a lot of the time, and it's perfectly fine for me. Thank you for doing what you do..

2MAD on Workout days and 1MAD on non Workout days. Its that simple.

Why not fewer? As long as you have enough protein and your body fat is above 10%, why do we need to eat every day?

@@dialecticalmonist3405 I see your point. I am 60, lost 72 lbs on KETO and in great shape at 15% body fat. Would love to be 12% body fat, more defined, abs all that - just for me, no one else.

Great video, just a comment that sometimes Omad can be breakfast only and 2MAD can be breakfast & lunch stop eating at 2 p.m. ~~~ Not always afternoon/evening eating.

5*: The flexible Mix perspective seems to me to be the most balanced and allows you to adapt to different circumstances and activities without stress.
