Need help Starting OMAD tomorrow as an Indian college freshman.
Hi everyone! I hope you’re all doing well!
I’m 20F, around 106–108 kg (I weighed myself about a week ago and was 106 kg), and I’ve just started college. I’m trying to lose weight and was thinking of starting OMAD from tomorrow.
I’d really appreciate some advice, especially from people who have experience with OMAD or weight loss!
My main issue is that I have a very long commute—around 4 hours a day—and I also end up walking quite a lot during my commute. By the time I get home, I don’t have much time or energy left for workouts, so I was considering OMAD as a way to manage my calorie intake.
I tried intermittent fasting about 3–4 years ago when I was still a teenager, but I honestly don’t remember whether it helped me lose weight or not. I’m also not sure if OMAD is actually a good idea for me or if there’s a better approach I should consider.
I’m also a vegetarian and from an Indian household, so I’d love some suggestions for what I could eat as my main meal. Ideally, I’d like something that is high in protein, filling, nutritious, and practical with Indian vegetarian food.
Also, if you have any tips for losing weight while managing a long college commute, I’d really appreciate them!
Thank you! ❤️
