@San Antonio Gal I have two meals at most. More often than not, I too will only eat once a day and can still not lose weight.

@Boomernichols You might be under-eating. But there are things other than food that can prevent weight (fat) loss. Stress and insufficient sleep are just two.

During the week 2 meals a day and weekends 3 meals a day but lunch is very light.
I'm really bad at snacking at night.

@qvcfreak Snacking is a hard habit to break! I work hard at not buying foods I tend to snack on. I also make sure I eat enough at my meals so that I'm satisfied (not stuffed). And I like water to drink in the evening. Keeping my hands busy helps, too. I know I hit it right when I am not hungry or full at bedtime, just fine and not wanting anything.

I drink only 2 cappuccinos a day, and drink lots of sparkling water. In summer I will have Arnold Palmers. I run in excess of 35 miles a week, do weight training and ab work. As far as it being unhealthy to only eat 2 meals a day....I don't know...but my doctor said keep doing what you're doing. I am 66 and hope my knees will hold up so I can continue to run. Last year I ran a marathon and maybe I will do so again when I am 70.

@kate2357 - Wow - you must be in awesome shape. I wish I could run like you. Have you been a runner all your life? Bet you look terrific!

I have been on an IF plan of either 20:4 or 22:2 most days, for the past 3.5-4 yrs.. I have coffee in the AM, MCT oil in one of my mugs of coffee. DH has been WFH since March 2020. We have our main meal at lunchtime. I'll have a little something extra within my eating window, in order to meet my macros, but there are days when I do OMAD and I'm content. When fasting resumes I stick with flavored water, coffee, or tea. I'm thinking of shifting to OMAD more often as fasting is really good for us in many ways,

I eat breakfast, lunch, dinner and 3 snacks. I'm on Nutrisystem and I've lost 20+ lbs.

3 FULL meals a day

Snacks inbetween meals

Stop eating 9:00p (on my third ice cream sandwich).

I love to eat & have NO restrictions (except for my few migraine triggers)

I get my vitamins through the foods I eat. No need to "purchase" the pill version.

I don't need to exercise. However, I do walk down 17 flights each day & take walks......I have a dog.

When I take the dog out, I'll take the elevator to the 3rd fl & take the stairs to the main floor because she is a Chihuahua mix.

I eat light breakfast and lunch. Dinner and minimal snacking.

Do all of you take vitamin supplements and do you exercise at all? Not judging, just curious.

I take vitamins and a few supplements. I exercise every day for 2 hours at the gym.

Do you snack and graze during the day? Are you a big sweet eater?

For the past 3 years, I've only eaten one meal a day - dinner. I don't snack at all and have zero desire for sweets. During the day - water and some coffee.

How about you?
