The “one meal a day” (Omad) approach to dieting and calorie-intake has an army of ardent admirers, including Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey, Kate Middleton’s socialite sister Pippa, and Hollywood stars Liz Hurley, Jennifer Aniston, Brooke Shields, Channing Tatum and Chris Pratt, among others.
Along with the Omad approach, old-fashioned calorie reduction neatly packed under new names and in new guises has become a favourite approach for those hoping to shed weight fast. Intermittent fasting; 5:2 (capping food intake to under 500 calories twice a week); alternate-day fasting (capping intake to 500 calories on alternate days); time-restricted windows of eating, such as 16/8 (fasting for 16 hours a day and eating within an 8-hour window), along with 24-hour fasts once or twice a week have become the latest fads to strike a chord with those looking for the next quick fix when it comes to diet and weight loss.
