Interesting. You and another commenter on the article are making me want to try this. I've definitely noticed better energy levels through the day when I eat small quantities frequently, but I agree that it can be a lot of work. I've never tried the once a day thing. I'm skeptical, but it sounds intriguing enough to try...

Try it, but you gotta get over the OMG I am am hungry feeling which takes a few days. I remember the first time I had to drive an hour while fasting, I was scared I was going to pass out, which in retrospect is ridiculous.

You adapt to it just like anything else. If you can, read The Warrior Diet by Ori Hofmekler or just find him online. The other resource that I find amazing is The Fat Burning Man podcast by Abel James. I found Abel and the podcast while searching out stuff on Ori (he is featured for one ep), but Abel really taught me how to live the fasting lifestyle, and he goes into depth about it in the episodes. Abel fasts for most of the day as well. I dont know, it might be a trend, but like I said, I really really like it. The worst part about dieting for me was eating but not feeling like I ate enough. Turns out its easier to just not eat, and then stuff my face like a child at night..

btw, I recommend working out while fasting to get the maximum benefit. If you have more questions or whatever, I can give you my email, just let me know.

I keep a bag of nuts (almonds or whatever I have around) near my desk or in my backpack. Then nibble on them every so often between meals. Also consume lots of water. These two things help me stay alert and stave off hunger for a full meal.

How many calories do you consume in that one meal?

Not entirely sure, cause I have never counted. One of the things I like about eating this way is that I just eat until I feel like I am full. But the only foods I eat are: lentils, broccoli, cauliflower, fish or steak, and then some other random vegetables and good whey protein. Late in the week I might eat some nuts and seeds, and then I might eat a sweet potato the day after I work out. It is recommended to work out in the afternoons if you eat like this, but I like to lift heavy in the mornings and then just drink water til my big meal. Then whey protein after my meal. But everything I do is pretty much by personal preference rather than this guy said to do it like this. I eat candy by the bulk on the weekends too, peach rings and anything mint. thats pretty much my entire diet and for always being a chubby kid, I can confidently say I have grown to be muscular using these methods!
