I am a faster. I do OMAD also a lot. The way it all works best for me is to vary it by length and variety 🎉 I have lost one hundred and sixty pounds to date. My goal is just forty pounds away🎉
wow Wendy! That is really an achievement and not easy. I'm happy for you and wish you great health!
That is awesome Wendy. May I ask how long it took for you to loose the weight?
@@SD-hs4bpabsolutely can ask anything...well almost 😂 I lost two hundred pounds over the course of two years ending in 2017. Slowly I had crept back up to 296 by 2022. I new that I needed to regain control before I was back at 400 pounds. In February 2023 I was also diagnosed with diabetes. That was my moment of rededication. Since those days in March of 2022 I have returned to my roots of fasting, low glycemic index foods and low carb choices. I'm a remake. The best of all the previous models of me🎉
I hope these words find you ready to recommit to your wellness.
@@tombarrett7797I am do better every day. Many thanks 🙏
🙌
I have lost weight I haven’t been able to lose in years. I did OMAD for 3 months and now move between 16-18 hrs fasting per day. It just felt right to make that change.
👌💪
Lisa- did you fast daily or adjust based on your cycle for the 3 months?
@@karagermano3079 @kara kara, I don’t have a cycle anymore, and did OMAD for 3 months, everyday. It broke through the massive insulin resistance I had no idea I had and which kept the weight on me. I was so resistant, I thought I had some kind of genetic setpoint that I was beholden to. But Dr Pelz and others taught me it was hormonal - my insulin levels were constantly high. Now they are relatively and consistently low due to fasting and keto/carnivore, and the weight is peeling off.
@@lisamckenna613 that is awesome! Good for you. Thank you for replying
Hi wt about the minerals or vitamins u tk wth elongated fasts. Pl advice.
All right, so I am a OMADer. 5 years and 4 months eating around 333 meals a year and it’s been amazing. Around 12 two day fasts per year. 4 three day fast per year and 1 five to seven day fast per year and I am not stuck. I am at my best weight 149 pounds at 5’10’ and LONG TERM 🙏 it has been working beautiful
I love this. Makes so much sense. I think it would work well for me, too. I am planning it right away 🙏♥️🌟
That's amazing!
I love how self assured you are. I will write down your plan and examine it further. Thank you!
You're also a man and the variation is what she recommends for women
This is amazing
I am faster I did OMAD and lost 30kgs of weight in 10 months and also reversed hypothyroidism. OMAD is great and very beneficial for overall health. Now it has become my way of life. I am grateful that I discovered OMAD.
Which kind of hypothyroidism did you have? Were you on meds for this? I’m hypothyroid for years
At last somebody is giving Dr Jason Fung credit. Usually people talk about as though they created it😂
Have you searched my CZcams channel? Here's a playlist of my Dr. Jason Fung videos 😉 www.youtube.com/@DrMindyPelz/search?query=fung
I've been doing OMAD consistently for about 4 months with IF and last month I did my first 72-hour water fast. I was a size 16 and now a size 6. I started getting consistent with my weight loss and overall health improvement November 2022. I will be 57 this year and set a goal to get healthy and lose the weight before my birthday. This video is timely because I have experienced hair loss and realized that it coud be from OMAD. My weight loss has not slowed down. I think I will try the 3-3-1 plan moving forward. I workout 6 days a week as well. Great video and information!
I've been told that hair loss during fasting can be prevented by eating more protein and salt. Definitely hard to get enough protein with one meal a day. I aim for at least 75 grams on fasting days.
Congratulations! I lost 80 pounds on OMAD and, like you, am stuck. Let's do 3-3-1 together. We've got this!
What is 3 3 1?
331 means
no, hair loss is lack of nutrients, try to eat more legumes, and bananas!
Omad has been my way of eating for 35 years
Do you ever change it up? 🙌
Been Omad for 2 yrs..lost 80 lbs., Reversed t2d, off 14 meds. And ues, i have plateaued for almost a year, have stalled with 35 lbs to go. This video is just what i needed to hear. Honestly...i am just too lazy to pack a lunch but i will try.
Dr Mindy, I've been with you doing a low carb lifestyle and Intermittent Fasting since 2019. Can't thank you enough. It has totally changed my health and body composition. Lost 8" off ny waist , reversed Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease, healed my back pain, getting rid of my cane. It's easy to get stuck in an OMAD cycle, we're creatures of habit. Thank you for everything.
Glad to hear your success story..were you doing keto with omad?
@thepinksugar1696
Yes I vary my fasts since 2022.
I drink a 32oz green juice throughout the day and eat my one meal a day around 5pm. I love it!!
Been doing OMAD going on 5 years now. Lost 80lbs in the first 12 months and have sustained my weight ever since.
👏👏👏🤗
@@DrMindyPelz thank you doctor Pelz both you and Dr. Fung we’re an integral part in my success.
@@johnnydangerously7186well done !what things do you eat on OMAD ?
Down 65lbs since January with intermittent fasting and now mostly OMAD but I always eat my one meal at different times of the day. I also throw in random 36-72s. I’ve actually started having a lot of new hair growth which is now curly and apparently that was how my hair was as a kid and I didn’t know!
I noticed my hair has new growth, and it's curly, but I thought it was snapped hair. 😮
Yeah my hair on my balls were bigger better and stronger
Congratulations 👏👏👏👏
You're aging backwards! So cool 😊
Did you exercise? Or just fasting?
I eat 333 to 345 meals a year and have been as consistent as can be for over 5 years. I never had so much energy, cognition, clarity. 2200 calories a day everyday and at ideal weight. So I’m definitely not stuck 5 years later.
Im an OMAD’er. lost 150lbs - from 321lbs to 170lbs. I had Open Heart Surgery April of 2022 to replace a congenitally defective Aortic Valve that also had a 5mm in the leaflet due to endocarditis. After OHS I went back to 2 meals a day to get more protein in so that I could heal. After about 3 months of cardiac recovery I went back to OMAD. I am 5’11”, 62 years old now. Male. I am at about bottom of my weight. I am still about 170lbs 5 years into Low Carb/Keto. I make sure I’m getting enough potassium, sodium, & magnesium in.
Fantastic, good for you!!
Nettle infusions are amazing for potassium and magnesium! It’s low sodium and hog mag ana mag uses sodium so you’ll need to do the Himalayan salt in water or something similar or veggies for sodium
@@strawberryme08 Great info, thanks 😊
I have been OMAD for years. I'm healthier than ever. I never got stuck. I have healed brain damage with OMAD. Never stuck.
Thank you for watching and sharing your success with me!
Hi Nickdepaul, glad to hear that u have healed brain damage. I'm someone who has brain damage, and I'm looking to get healed from it. What kind of brain damage did you have?
@@seanolezotc4554 damage from extreme extended childhood abuse. Learn as much as you can about making keytones and BDNF Brain Derived Neutrophic Factor for neural repair.
I have been fasting for 22-24 hours a day….everyday…for almost a year come July 2023. I also eat all of the healthy foods to make sure I get all of my nutritional needs, but I also eat whatever I want after I eat my healthy meal if I’m still hungry. It’s my way of satisfying my “one meal” lifestyle and it is absolutely the only way that this can be a sustainable lifestyle diet for me for the long haul or I would never stick to anything else. I was on keto for 2+ years before this and didn’t lose as much weight and I was also kind of miserable not having carbs because I was exercising so much and I needed those carbs but didn’t realize it. I am thankful for keto for helping me get back to a healthy weight but fasting jd my happy place! 🎉
I do my best to get all my healthy low carb foods when breaking my fast, I normally have 2 meals in my 5 hour eating window. Im going to give the 5-1-1 a try . i got a little ahead of myself and started with 1. I'll start fresh tomorrow with 5. i broke my fast with guacamole on lettuce boats . Do you have any special foods you like?
331 : optimal to accelerate healing
3 favorite fast
3 omad
1 no food for this day
421: (recommended for weight loss )
4 favorite length fast
2 elongate that fast
1 no fasting
511:
5 17-20h intermittent fast
1 elongate the fast or do omad
1 no fast
I have been eating OMAD since Jan 1st 2024. I’ve lost 47 pounds. I love OMAD. i think my body is now used to it because i still weigh over 220 pounds but i have reached a weight loss plateau. Dr Mindy’s talk is very interesting today!!
I am a happy OMAD'er! Never hungry, never crave. Many days, I will go over 24 hours, or under, just to switch it up. Long term it has worked for me. I had to find the best time for that meal. I work nights. I eat 2 hours before I go to work. I eat a big meal with a lot of saturated fat and some protein. I am happy with how things are going!
Nice!
I do Omad Monday to Friday (only dinner at around 530-6) 2mad Saturdays (skip breakfast) and don’t fast on Sundays as I enjoy having a nice Sunday breakfast with my family, do weight and resistance training Monday to Friday either early in the morning or in the evenings an hour after my meal and walk probably 10-20 miles per week. Have lost 40 pounds and have high muscular composition, never been healthier in my life and can’t imagine living in any other way. Thanks Dr. Pelz you Rock ❤
Congratulations!! 🎉🔥
Awesome video! Highlighting the body's constant tendency towards homeostasis and the adaptability of metabolism. Those are in my view the reasons that fasting cannot have the same effect if done 24/7.
I just love her! She gets to motivate you with her well-structured and clear speech. I'm mesmerized ❤ Doc, thank you for sharing with us this wisdom.
Thank you so much for the kind words 💙
OMAD is working absolutely fine for me. Biggest advantage is I am very active now with clear thoughts and I am losing weight gradually. I save time and money too.
that's fantastic!! celebrating the wins! 🙌
I love everything Dr. Mindy has to say but would really love some longer form content. Love catching her on other long form podcast type videos
💙
Ah this explains my hair loss after doing OMAD for the last 6 months. No doubt I got to the size I wanted but I think it’s time to tweak the game.
Dr. Mindy, i can't thankyou enough for all your advice. Im 63vand post menopausal. I vary fasting daily with the 511 or 421 or Omad. I do IF daily. Health is a journey and you have done a fantastic job on educating us. Please continue to do what you do, with tips, short videos and products to purchase. ❤❤❤
❤️
thanks so much for this video. Fasting can get a bit confusing, especially for me as a women, but you have given me such clarity in this short video and now I can plan my fasting much better. Much appreciated
🤗
Love it mon to Friday 20 hr from Friday lunchtime 12:30 do over weekend 48 eat Sunday 12:30 then back to 20 hr Monday Friday
homage to the Guru! I've been doing this for yrs! +i eventually reverted back to nowhere land. now, itz listen to body, not the head! lov u Mindy!❤❤❤
🤗
5-1-1 is the absolute best for fat loss. I've done this for years and have stayed lean. Mon - Friday I fast doing a 17/7 ( I eat 3 meals from 5pm till midnight). When Friday rolls around at 5pm, I begin my splurge and eat anything I want until bedtime on Saturday night (I go to bed between midnight and 2am). I won't eat again until Monday at 5pm at which point I resume the 17/7 fast. When Friday rolls back around, I repeat the process.😋
So your fast from what Sat. night to Monday evening is usually what, 41 hours or so?
@@almaburns6562 Yes that's correct.
Thats so similar to how our prophet Mohammed used to fast..he used to fast every Thursday and Monday..
@@thegoldenoakWell fasting is a common Christian practice. Jesus fasted, there’s fasting in the old testament, and the early church fasted too. The early Christian church fasted regularly, some fasting twice a week. The Bible says we should live a life of prayer and fasting. I pray that you turn to Christ. He is the only way to salvation and to not perish. 🙏🤍
Sounds like a binge eating disorder.
Thank you for the abundant information you are sharing! Very, very helpful! I am a 50 year old OMAD. I did this for more than three years. I did it because I find that eating a second meal will increase bloating to painful levels. I hoped that with time my gut will heal and I can go back to eating 2 meals a day. Not really. When I tested and I eat a second meal it was always the same: the bloating is so disturbing, it's not worth eating at all. I find this lifestyle easy now (things are quiet inside) but as dr. Pelz said it does not work long term. I am slowly gaining weight (even if I did not do OMAD to lose weight, I was at least hoping that my weight will be stable. So I have to implement one of the options presented above and make some changes to see how my body reacts.
Very enlightening. Thank you
I've never fasted, but I don't eat (less) carb and sugar, and I don't eat much. And the first time I fasted, it immediately worked for 3 days, and I went up to 5 days and it worked. I have done several times 5 days, and 3 days. Now I'm focusing on one meal a day for everyday style
I did omad + keto for 3 months ... I lost 30 lbs in 3 months, but I was Super tired, got keto rash and lost my hair and my skin got super dry!!! Now I try mix my fasts and food variation often. I stopped losing weight as fast, but if I want to drop a few lbs I do a sardines fast for 3 days! Now the hard part is to try to maintain the weight loss ...
🙌
Mindy, You are a gem! There is so much to be said about your passion and content, but I hope my first sentence sums it up perfectly well.
🙏❤️
Great content on this one. ive been stalled on omad about 6 months, going to try the 5-1-1!
🤗
Thank you Dr Mindy, what has been key for me is that since finding your channel and your resources (two weeks ago) is that I understand what I am doing, why I am doing it and when I should be doing it. This has made the fasting process a lot easier for me and has meant that I have been able to tweak the process according to my goals; weight loss, healing, working with my cycle, spiritual etc. I have started to lose weight in this time, and I have also started to see the results of healing some of the issues I have been struggling with for many years (brain fog, digestive issues etc) and more recently my chaotic perimenopause symptoms, though I am still in the early stages of this process. I am 51 years old. I am very grateful to you and your team. Hugs from UK.
🙏❤️
Im learning lots!
I started just a bit ago with a five hour window lost 6 lbs but got worried wjen I heard you says swtch it up on one of your videos. So started eating more meals and found it hard to get back to choosing windows. I keep learning and trying for the weight lose because I alraedy eat the best of foods 90% of the time🎉 Always a treat to hear you and learn from you, I have patience thank god! Its just maybe 15 lbs Id like to shed❤❤
Dr. Mindy, you my lovely are a "window" A WINDOW OF SUNSHINE, for all women! 🎉 thank you from the deepest part of me!!!
🙌🤗
Thank you so much for this video. It explains a lot of what to do. Wish me luck, I have been stuck for a year.
Good luck on your journey! You've got this! 💪🤗
Thanks for this Dr. Mindy. I like to have more variation, but that is also probably because I have yet to be able to get much past a 20 or 21 hour fast. I keep trying, but also do not want to push myself too hard. I had to take a break from fasting a while ago and just started back up.
Every time I fast, I experience a headache or lightheadedness or hunger (etc) right around 20 hours. I put electrolyte powder in my water, drink it, and it goes away within 20-30 minutes.
Then everything is easy after that. I seriously feel I can fast forever. I hope you try it.
Just get to the other side to see how easy it is after that 👍
For example, I would eat dinner at 7pm on Monday. Close to dinner time on Tuesday, I was suffering. I would push through with zero calorie electrolytes (LMNT or similar), and realize I only needed to go to sleep and wake up for it to count as a full 36 hours!
So I went to sleep and accomplished my first 36. It was great. Basically, we get credit for sleeping time 😊
@@alinap.7298 Thank you!
My partner and I fast daily. Two mad is what we do. Lost weight, gained lots of muscle and autophagy weekly. Daily is 16 hr fast. I have been with Dr.Mindy since about 2 months before she taught Dr. Fund and Vaulter Longos work. Never been healthier or happier ❤
Amazing!!! Good for you!
I started my fasting using the Faster Way to Fat Loss, which is basically following their diet plan and counting macros. I lost 30# in about 4 months which was my goal. That being said, I read Fast, Feast, Repeat and started doing OMAD. Then I read your book and now do OMAD a couple days a week. They other 5 days I mix it up and do 16 or 18 fast. A couple times a month I do at least a 24/36 hour fast. So far I have maintained my weight loss.
👍🏾👍🏾
OMAD helped jump start my weight loss. It really is my favorite fast. But after watching this video, I think I'll try the 4-2-1 variation.
🙌💪
I tried fasting in April with an app but every time I clicked "START" I immediately got the urge to eat something, almost like in rebellion of the app. That happened in April and May.
Then, in late May, I found your channel and started listening. I reinstalled the fasting app and started over. On Day One I did 16-8 (successfully) but then on Days 2 thru 6 I did 20-4 (successfully).
On Day 7, because I had been listening to your channel and the 20 hour long fasts went well, I did a 36 hour long fast. Drank only water, coffee, and tea and then twice I did water with electrolytes.
So that was my first week of fasting, and the bonus was a 7 lb weight loss in that first week.
I plan to do the same drill this week and beyond and I'll keep listening to and appreciating your wonderful advice.
Thank you so much.
Rebellion against the App 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was the same way when I used a fasting app. 😂 Now I just watch the clock.
Right now I'm doing ADF with OMAD. I eat my meal on Monday, then don't eat again until Wednesday. I can't use those apps either because I found myself checking and checking and getting hungry the more I checked. I'm trying to give myself a break and be more flexible because imo as long as I'm sticking to the general protocol, it's way better than the massive snacking I was doing. I can always refine as I go along
This is what happens when you let a app rule your life...try some good old fashion common sense... good luck..
😂😂
Wonderful information here. Thank you Doctor.
❤️
This is brilliant. I'm a living proof of her method. It's the best tool
🙌🤗
Thank you, Dr. Pelz
❤️
Omg!! That was me! I did omad for a year. I lost 20 lbs in the beginning. Then nothing! I found you and your you tube channel and fast like a girl. I am a 56 yr old menopausal girl and was feeling yucky. So I changed everything doing 511. And it's starting to slowly change. I get discouraged someday bc I wish for the weight to come of faster but I'll take the movement however I can get it. So THANK YOU THANK YOU for these videos ❤❤
Amazing!! Way to go Debby!
Thanks Dr. Mindy! ❤🎉
💚
I love OMAD. It has helped me to reach my goal weight. I usually do OMAD during my work week and then eat 2-3 meals on my off days
Great video!
I have been doing IF 16:8 for 2.5 months and have lost 8 lbs, but still have 20 lbs to go. Recently, started OMAD and have lost 2 lbs in 3 days. It is tough being a lacto-vegetarian and mom to 2 young kids, but I’m determined to keep going and be at pre-baby weight before my sweet 4 0 birthday 😊. Thanks for the information and all the tips!
You are doing great!! Congratulations 🎉🎉 YOU do hard things!! 💙 I am cheering you on!
I am on OMAD but I lightened up to two-mad. I mix it up a bit and I don't force myself. This second round of my journey I am not as hard on myself or make myself stressed. I like the mix of the amount of hours of fasting and definitely not by clockwork. That would put pressure on me. I remain faithful to a low-carb & Keto-Carnivor. I won't weigh myself either but I am pretty that I am back to my desired weight.
I agree. After years of being OMAD, and after I turned 42-43 years it stopped working for me and started to gain weigh. So now I’m switching things around by using Dr. Mindys techniques around my cycle and it seems to be working
I'm so glad that you've found something that is🙌 working for you!!
OMAD’er here 4 years now on keto/carnivore at 63!
Lost 40 lbs!
I’m stuck with my last 15lbs!
Starting to vary my fasts!
💪🙌
I've been doing 18:6 for a few days now, absolutely loving it. I get excited planning out my meals to enjoy later in the day HOWEVER, my fiancé wants a date night tomorrow night so I'm wanting to do OMAD and fast for 21-24 hours. SEND ME POSITIVE VIBES GUYS 🥰
Good luck 🤞🏽 . I’m also doing 18/6 (5-1-1) but doing omad today and no fasting tomorrow. You can do it and enjoy your meal tomorrow with your fiancé.
@@EmiliaEarlam thanks hunny x
💚
Done
Good luck
OMAD -55lbs in 6ish months. I drink diet soda all day and eat occasional rice and potato, veg oil sauces and fruit for treat after meal. No candy ice cream ect.
I love omad and powerlifting! They go together!!!
💙🙌🏼
I lost all my weight and gained it all back when I got depressed and ate when I was not even hungry out of emotional eating when I was not even hungry

This info would have been helpful when I started IF. I slowly lost weight then promptly gained it back… now having trouble losing weight.
🤗
What you said exactly happened to me. Whilst I lost considerable weight and I am very happy with it, I reached a weight loss plateau. I couldn't understand why. I enjoyed doing OMAD and got a sense of satisfaction of being able to eat just one meal a day. However I got frustrated because it wasn't getting rid of some stubborn weight. My goal is 70 kg and now at 74 kg. Not far away and not too discouraged. Now I know what to do to reach my goal. Thanks so much!
🙌💪
My entire family has done OMAD for four years now and none of us can imagine eating 3 to 4 meals like we used to. Now we gain weight very fast if we eat extra but we don't get tired or feel tired on OMAD. I recently had my arteries checked and they are all clear. My mother had a stroke and my father had a triple by pass. It's nice having control of my heart health and I'm not walking around not knowing if I'm next to drop with a heart attack.
So inspiring. What I love is that I feel I have added certainty and control back into my life with just starting OMAD.
I lost a lot of weight when was I was intermittent fasting then I stopped losing weight so I went to OMAD and now I have I stopped losing weight again and gain weight very very easily now. I love the way I feel on OMAD but I crash when I eat a night and end up falling asleep 30 mins after eating I tried your Reset for a week and gained 4 kg. I am also on hormone HRT. I am really at a loss and feel helpless and stuck.

Yes, OMAD worked for me. I lost 2.5 stone in 6 months. Since then ( for the last 18 months) I've been maintaining at my healthy weight. I love OMAD. I guess I was lucky that any "stuck" phase coincided exactly with reaching my healthy weight. I take vitamin supplements and do regular exercise.
💚
Would love to hear Dr Mindy Pelz and Jessie Inchauspe - Glucose Revolution, talk on a podcast 😊
I did OMAD at the age of 55 for 8 months and lost 30lbs. I am now 59 and OMAD is not working, so I am grateful for this video.
'Variations' are important. You've got this! 💪
I have been OMAD since Jan. 2018 losing 40lbs. Having said that, I have gained a few and the OMAD just isn't producing the results as it did in the beginning. I am by far not obese but just want to lose about 10 lbs that I gained. This is brilliant information and I am going to change my windows of eating as recommended. Kind of like "meal confusion". Thank you for your dedication and research!
🙌🏻 You've got this! 💪🏻
I know a 70yr female who's about 100lbs overweight. She told me she's been doing OMAD over 2yrs now & is lucky if she's lost at most. 20lbs. She suffers hunger everyday & says only benefit is she stopped weight gain to avoid diabetes by driving down her insulin level.
I used to do this!!!!! Lost 83 pounds but I still have 60ish pounds to lose! I’m getting back on it 💪

I did one meal a day for about a month and yes I lost weight quickly.
What did u eat?
I have been doing one meal every other day because i started gaining weight even when i dont eat.
Vary your fast and eating styles. 🙂
Originally I started with a 16:8 schedule and eventually landed at OMAD. I lost almost 30lbs quicker than I’d expected. But then, I got stuck and never saw additional progress. The fear of switching something that was working for me so well was and still is terrifying. Eager to start switching things up and hopefully breaking through to the fat burning stage again.
Cheering you on Angelique! 💪🙌💙
Long term been thinking about starting the month with a 72 hours fast, next week 48 hours fast and 24 hr fasts like I normally do rest of the time
When I retired from the military in the spring of 2009 at the age of 47, I weighed 190 from the last 8 years of my career being bad eating habits, no sleep, and high stress. After retirement I automatically went back to my natural eating habit of OMAD/eating only when I was hungry and not eating past 7pm, I also started getting regular sleep (no more shift work, although I am still a night owl), I dropped from 190 to 160/165. I am disabled, so any kind of working out anymore cannot be done. I maintained that weight, and continued OMAD for 9 years. Menopause hit me hard right on my 50th birthday, but the OMAD was still working fine and my weight was constantly at 160/165. Suddenly the fall of 2018 at the age of 56, out of nowhere, I gained 5 lbs in August, another 5 lbs in September, and another 5 lbs in October. Within 3 months I weighed 180 without doing anything differently from the previous 9 years. It was like the body snatchers or something. OMAD no longer worked, so panicked. I tried eating several small meals, weight still crept on. I tried Kachava meal replacement, the weight still crept on. I tried a version of OMAD, but hate feeling hungry when I get up, so I snacked a little an hour before bed. Weight crept on. I was also starting to get heartburn several times a day, and eating an antacid each time to put the fire out. For the first time in my life, my body was out of control, and everything I tried was only making it worse, and I was running out of ideas. A week ago, I weighed 195. I was devastated. To give you an idea, just before my 30th birthday, I weight 201 the day before I had my son who weighed 9 lbs and was 24" long. I looked into pills, I looked into programs that cost thousands of dollars (that I can't afford), and I about lost hope. I came across an ad on FB about intermittent fasting, and looked into that since that's pretty much what I did for years, while people harped on me "you know, that's not good for you".. I saw that I was right when I was listening to my body. But that was before the decade of dealing with menopause, and having the weight slowly packing on since 2018 when I became post-menopausal. One of the groups I had joined had mentioned you, Dr Mindy. I decided to watch your videos, and just bought your two latest books. While I'm gathering this information over the last 6 days, I decided after a couple of days of watching your information to try an 18:6 daily fast while I get the information about what might work for me, being 61 and post-menopausal. I decided to weigh myself a couple of days ago, fully expecting to have gained yet more weight, and actually found that after being on the 18:6 for 4 days, I had lost 5 lbs. I also notice the heartburn frequency has diminished a lot. I also drink only Dyln Alkaline water. I think I'll try the 5-1-1 and see how that goes. I just want to thank you for reminding me that I wasn't wrong with listening to my body in how I used to eat... and that now it's not my imagination that I still can, but I have to adjust because of being post-menopausal. There is hope.

Mindy introduced me to the idea of switching it up. I'm down 100# from last year. OMAD & prolonged fasting up to 96 hrs & several 48 hrs. I hit a baseline I took a break for a month. PSMF carnivore pushing 100g a day in protein put on 10# of lean mass & filled up some weak muscles. I started Creatine, Taurine + L-Carnitine before my work. I'm back to an ADF to OMAD to cut body fat & switch back to more plant based targeting below 15% BMI @ 53 from 45% last year. I found breaking plateaus demanded longer fasts. Each lower baseline has been a 72 hr fast away. I found 96 hrs didn't yield as much as just doing ADF for a longer time focusing on protein.

I am 56, and 10 years ago got a middle age spread around my waist. I developed a routine where I lift weights once a week, eat like crazy for the next couple days of recovery to pack on the muscle, then do OMAD for the rest of the week to burn of the belly fat. Over a year, I replaced 20+ pounds of fat with muscle, and am keeping my waist between 28 to 30 inches.
Thanks for sharing, congratulations on finding what works for you. 💪🥳

I am living proof it is healthy. I am 60 and lost just over 60 pounds since Jan 4th this year. My health is greatly improved in everyday and energy is endless and I am at a healthy BMI and have not been this weight since I was 18! Keto+IF/OMAD is amazing. I have now stopped OMAD except for a couple days a week and switch up my meal times and meals skipped according to how I feel. 3 meals a day about half the time somedays skid breakfast, other days skip supper etc. Keep you body guessing and always eat the right foods, natural and not processed.
That was called "metabolic confusion" by some dietician, I forget who! 🤣
So true my weight loss stalled and i was confused then came acroos your videos and now i eat at different times and not omad some days
Thank you doc
Lost 60lbs doing OMAD for 5 months but now I'm stuck so will now try and do some fasting variations
🙌👑🥳 Congratulations!! You are doing it! Cheering you on!
I fast a lot 23/24. I lost some hair 😮and not losing weight but thats not my goal. Have a lot of food intollarances so 24 is easy😅i don't have to make much choices then. Also doi g the plantparadox, that helps too .now I gonna give the 3-3-1 a change. Thank you😊
love it
I do OMAD 6x week and take one day off. My eating window is usually 90 minutes… I’ve lost 50 pounds eating this way without restricting any food groups. I guess that’s a 6-1 variation 🤷♂️
👍
I have been omad carnivore for about two months and I feel the best mentally and physically in my life and I’m down 25 pounds
I do omad/ low carb, 2- 3 days a month i eat anything i want. every 4-6 weeks i do a 3 day fast
One meal a day is just super easy. Particularly if you choose the right time of the day to eat. Personally my favorite is in the evening. But I guess it's a personal thing. I managed my weight and reached a comfortable level. It stalled at some point but I think I just needed more patience and some variation. OMAD does it for me. And especially when you add Keto to it. Makes it even easier
Great short video. What is a short period for OMAD? is one month ok?
Wow. Been doing one meal a day for a year or two now, definitely plateaued.
I dry fast once a week for 44-46hrs. The other days I do 20-21hrs fasted.
I don’t do this now, but in the past I did Keto and lost 60 lbs in 3 months by having 1-2 meals a day. I would eat when I was hungry. I also would have 1-2 bulletproof coffees a day (butter, coconut oil, and heavy whipping cream) and that helped me extend my not eating window. Unfortunately, I did have a few side effects to what I was doing, the first was hair loss and found out a few years later that I have Hashimoto’s, the second was that I would go back and forth from having diarrhea to having constipation if I had too much kale, and the third was I kept getting redness in one of my eyes. I gained most of the weight back and would like to find a healthier way to lose weight I.e. Dr. Mindy’s or a similar way. I’m 235 lbs and 5’9” right now.
Blue collar OMAD here. It works for me because - no bloating, high energy, and mental sharpness in the morning and one large meal at 6pm makes me full and my sleep is much better. Disclaimer; my job is an 8+ hour HIIT workout.
🙌🎉 that's great!
@@DrMindyPelz yeah baby! Mind body ✌️
🙌😄
Since i almost died from toxic meds in 2022, i have been on lion diet/ omad, since. I also put in remision epileptic seisures, also i no longer suffer from angiodeama anaphalethic attacks, becouse i don't take toxic meds anymore. Thanks to dr. Ken Berry, and dr. Chris Palmer for saving my life❤. At 53 i feel more healthier than i was at 23. And the bonus off all was that all those metabolic syndrones are in remision too. Becouse everyone says, that they reverse it?. Nope...we are actually put them in remision, since we all suffer for over 60 years, with fallowing the so call guidelines that keeps us fat and sick😢😢😢. I also lost weight from 230lbs down to 155lbs.
Well done! Congratulations!! 🙌💙
I've been doing omad for a while, and have finally started losing again.
