One meal a day, Easy way for weight loss
Feb 12, 2017 under Health and Fitness
Few people have yet to experience the glory that is eating one meal a day.
No, eating one meal per day won’t make you fat.
It won’t give you make you lose all your muscle.
But it does allow you to feast like a fucking king every single night.
Hell, if you’ve struggled with more traditional diets that make you eat anywhere from 3-6 meals per day, then this may be the most stupidly simple way for you to successfully lose weight ever!
If you’ve dreamed of eating 24 ounce steaks, with a mountain fries and ice cream, EVERY SINGLE night while still losing fat and building muscle then read on.
The basic idea behind eating once per day
The basic idea behind eating one meal per day is quite simple.
Every day, you eat one big ass meal (preferably at night) and during the day you fast. However during the day you can have a 1-2 pieces of fruit and some protein powder if you’re training that day. But the basic idea is to consume the majority of your calories at night.
This allows you to eat more and feel more satiated, so dieting becomes a walk in the park.
Reason #1: Insane Energy
How many times have you eaten lunch only to feel super tired 2 hours later? It sucks.
We’re all told lunch is supposed to give us this mythical boost of energy, and maybe it does for some people, but I’ve found that most people just fall into a 2pm slump when they eat lunch and their productivity shoots down the drain.
When you fast throughout the entire day, you experience this amazing surge of energy that lasts the entire day.
Reason #2: Never again feel deprived when dieting
One of the many reasons people fail at diets is simply because they get hungry.
When you follow the conventional 6 meals per day model, you have survive on a couple hundred calories every few hours. And at the end of the day, you just never feel satisfied. You feel like something is missing.
Ironically, eating once per day solves this problem for most people.
The act of fasting throughout the day is a very powerful appetite suppressant, so when you have your massive feast at the end of the day, you practically feel “stuffed” every night.
Reason #3: More time & more productivity
Imagine how much more work you could get done if you didn’t have to worry about eating during the day.
No more worrying about that mid morning snack, no more stopping at subway during lunch, and no more 2pm energy slumps.
All this time you save can now be used to do more productive things that truly matter (like looking at pictures of cats online).
Reason #4: EVERYTHING tastes better
Try not eating for most of the day and then eat a grape. Just one grape.
I guarantee that grape will be the best tasting grape you’ve ever had in your entire fucking life.
Look, I don’t know the scientific reason for why food tastes so much better after a fast, and frankly, I don’t care. But some of the best meals in my life have been after a long fast.
Reason #5: Because eating cake every night is awesome
You know what’s awesome? Cake.
You know what’s not awesome? Not eating cake.
Cake makes everything in life better but with traditional dieting, you aren’t allowed to eat cake, which sucks.
Everyone needs more cake in their life (scientifically proven), so why not have a slice…or two, every night.
When you only eat one meal per day, you can afford to have some cake every night since you have so many calories to play around with.
Is coffee, water, tea, or diet soda okay?
Yes, as long as it’s zero calories, it’s fine.
Coffee is actually a great appetite suppressant.
You are allowed to eat 1-2 pieces of fruit during the day
While it’s totally fine if you can go the full day without eating anything, a lot of people do get hunger pangs no matter how much experience they have with intermittent fasting.
In this case, you can have 1-2 pieces of fruit throughout the day. This shouldn’t add up to any more than 200 calories plus you won’t feel a huge drain in energy compared to eating something high in carbs like a granola bar or a sandwich.
