My Experience with One Meal a Day (OMAD) for 6 Months – The Results and Lab Tests Were Truly Shocking!

My Experience with One Meal a Day (OMAD) for 6 Months – The Results and Lab Tests Were Truly Shocking!

Peace be upon you all.
Honestly, I didn’t plan this journey at all. I didn’t wake up one day deciding to try a new lifestyle, nor was I thinking about a diet or a long-term plan.
All that happened is that I reached a moment where I felt that the rhythm I was living no longer resembled me. A strange type of fatigue—not obvious exhaustion, but a soft, subtle feeling that repeated every day, as if inviting me to pause and rethink things.

There was no crisis, no big decision. Just a sense that my body was whispering: “Slow down. Rearrange your day. Give me space to breathe.”
In that tiny moment—one many people overlook—the idea was born.
I didn’t tell myself “I will do this for six months,” nor even a week. It was simply one step, without expectations or long-term goals.
I said to myself: “Let me see what happens if I change just one thing in my day.”
And that’s how the story began—not with a plan or a challenge, but with a simple feeling searching for a new rhythm in life.

Curiosity, honestly, is what drove me into this experiment.
I didn’t enter it intending to follow a diet or test my willpower.
It was much simpler… and maybe at the same time, much deeper.
My days were passing quickly no room to pause. Habits repeating, details piling up.
So came that quiet thought: What if I reduced just a little of this daily noise?
Not a major decision just a small experiment to see how my body, mind, and mood would respond.

I never expected that choosing one eating time per day could change anything.
But curiosity was stronger than expectations.
The first days weren’t a battle with hunger as many might think it was a battle with habit.
Suddenly, I discovered that the body doesn’t always ask for food the mind fears the change, not the stomach.

On the first day, I thought it would be easy.
Then those inner questions appeared ones no one could hear but me:
Is this decision logical? Will I really continue? Why am I tense even though I’m not hungry?
The issue wasn’t with food it was the rhythm I had lived with for years.

After about two weeks, I noticed a light yet clear shift.
Hunger no longer knocked every hour, and my thoughts stopped chasing every bite.
Day by day, my body and mind began adapting to the new flow.
My sleep became deeper, as if the night turned into a calmer refuge.
My focus improved gently, noticeably.
Even my daily movement felt lighter like my body was learning efficiency.

But it wasn’t all smooth.
My energy fluctuated at times, then settled gradually.
Socially, there was another challenge: questions from others, surprised looks, moments where I had to explain or adjust meal timing.

Months passed, and as the sixth month approached, the picture became clearer.
I realized what I gained: lightness in movement, stable energy, a deeper understanding of how my body interacts with food.
And also what I lost: some social meal routines, occasional need to explain or reschedule eating times.

Over time, I understood that this experience was bigger than food.
It opened a window to understanding myself more deeply.
I learned how we eat, why we eat, and when to eat.
How to allow myself to fall back without guilt and rise again after any setback.
These lessons stayed with me even at the end of each day.
They taught me that real change begins internally from knowing the rhythm that fits me, not what the world imposes.

This is not advice nor a recommendation.
I am not asking anyone to try it I am simply sharing what happened with me.
Some people might thrive on this rhythm—those seeking simplicity, less complexity, more mental clarity, more presence in the moment.
While others may be harmed by it those with eating disorders, blood sugar issues, heavy physical activity demands, or those who struggle with consistency.

After six months, I reached a moment of honest reflection.
You may wonder why did it last that long?
The answer is simple: curiosity and inner improvement lighter movement, clearer mind, better harmony with my body.
But I stopped when I felt the experience was losing its value and becoming a rigid routine.

If there’s one lesson I want to leave with you, it is this:
Real change is not in OMAD or any diet it is in the relationship we build with our bodies and our daily habits.

What I practiced for six months is known as OMAD  One Meal A Day, meaning eating only one meal daily.
I did not restrict food types strictly; I focused mainly on timing.

After finishing the experiment, I ran routine blood tests to monitor the impact.
The results were positive and encouraging:

• Weight dropped and then stabilized after losing excess fat especially around the belly.

• Energy became steadier throughout the day.

• Digestion improved no more bloating.

• Blood test results were within normal range, with no major nutrient deficiencies.

Worth noting I do not smoke, I do not drink alcohol, I exercise and walk daily.
For years I have avoided refined sugar and hydrogenated oils, and I consume carbs moderately.

Even though I stopped after six months, the lessons and habits remain.
Because the real value of any journey is not the system itself, but the awareness it leaves inside us.

I hope I succeeded in sharing something beneficial with you.
