is it bad to only eat once a day(for me I just eat breakfast), I have around a 23.5 hour fasting period, but I meet all my nutritional needs(I calculated everything to make sure I do).
I'm not hungry throughout the day, or any more hungry in the morning than someone would usually be. I feel great, I sleep better, my stomach doesn't hurt so much, I don't feel awful when I go to bed or wake up. I feel energized and happy, it makes me less stressed and have more time to be productive or spend on hobbies because I just don't have to stress about it.
there's no stress of what and when I'm going to eat next and how long it would take to cook it, if I have everything I need, if I have the time, if i can handle a non safe food that day, ect.
I personally don't see why that would be concerning, but others around me think it is, and are at times forcing me to eat when I'm not hungry and then I feel awful again.
I meeting all my needs. it just so happens to be in one meal instead of two or three. why is that concerning?? its made me feel SO MUCH better. but is it really that unhealthy??

(not asking if one is better than the other. just asking if it would be unhealthy or just fine to eat one meal a day as opposed to multiple)

(I'm eating healthy by the way, like as healthy as I can. but when they force me to eat its always something packed with empty calories, zero nutrition, and a hell of a lot of saturated fat. like a fucking hostess cupcake or something similar.)

I'm going to ask my doctor about it at my next appointment, but for the time being I thought maybe I'd ask here ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

like maybe someone else does this? so maybe I won't feel like a freak or something just for eating differently

I'm also not doing this to lose weight, I'm eating what I should to maintain my weight(which I have). maybe that makes it different?

then there’s one interesting thing that i get out of this…

i find myself very much looking forward to #lunch these days. not going simply because it’s #lunchtime #lunchhour, but much more intentional. #omad #onemealaday

already feel lighter. when try to suck in my stomach at least i feel it’s actually happening—unlike in recent past. feeling this positively affecting my #sleep #sleeping too: not enough data yet but wonder if this could get me more #deepsleep.

i‘ll keep this going in a relaxing way. mean i’d eat another meal when i need to like when i’m with family or friends, which i did saturday; even then i don’t think i want to eat as much as before. this happening #fast…ha, perfect #pun. #omad #onemealaday

it just happened. i didn’t plan it. i hadn’t even really thought about it before…

two sundays ago. i went to visit #myfather and i didn’t have anything to eat until that midafternoon when i was offered a pot of soup there! by the time evening came i wasn’t #hungry so that #lunch became my only #meal that day.

naturally somehow i did the same the next day: having #omad #onemealaday. surprisingly there hasn’t been any major sensation of #hunger that bothers me. #sofarsogood.

@Krautreporter Fasten ist wahnsinnig praktisch, zumindest für mich: Man braucht nicht einkaufen, man braucht nicht kochen, man braucht nicht essen, man braucht nicht abräumen, man braucht nicht abwaschen. #OMAD #onemealaday #selteneressen
