I had an employee, for about three weeks, that only ate one meal per day.
He came to work, drank only water and left without eating a bite of food. He said that is what he did his whole life. Yes, he was skinny. Very skinny. But he only had a dinner and that was it all day.
I wonder what metabolism that guy had?
Tonight, I eat a nice meal at Smokey Joes with the guys in the community.
Looking forward to a nice large hamburger.

Kosher BBQ? I've never heard of such a thing. But please don't order a hamburger at a BBQ joint...go for the ribs or the brisket (and stay away from the ketchup) :.)

Barry...I've been so Smokey Joe's 3 times. Believe me, if you go there you *have* to try the smoked food. Go for the brisket and chicken plate. Absolutely wonderful.
I've taken non-Jews and unaffiliated Jews there, and they LOVE IT. It's fabulous.

I was there once...
I had a burger and it was great.
But I guess I can always change it up...

Folks,
I am so glad that I found this page. I am also a once-a-day eater since 8 months and I feel great.
But I am not writing to share my experience. My goal is to make this type of eating pattern more popular so that people who benefit from it do not feel tamed and dissuaded by doctors and nutritionists who repeat the same old message: "eat small amounts at least 3 times a day."
Folks, I would like to conduct research which proves the phisical and mental benefits of eating once a day and I would grately benefit from hearing your experience.
If any of you is interested in joining my battle against skeptical nutritionists, please e-mail me at kurbanek@sas.upenn.edu or call me at 267-357-6562.
I will greatly appreciate your feedback. Thank you for reading this lengthy answer. Good luck with eating once a day. Yours,
Kalina

I have to say that as a student I ate only one meal a day for 8 months and lost 20 kgs. I never felt better in my life - eyes were shining and I felt so full of energy! At first I allowed myself to eat ANYTHING, i.e. junk food, everything - only ONE meal though. I lost weight. However I soon grew sick of the bad quality of food, and started to eat very good quality food instead. I had SO much energy and was radiant. Unfortunately I stopped doing this when I moved back home -and the weight I had lost slowly came back over 6 months. Still, I am 10 kgs less than I was to start with. I want to go back to this lifestyle - it was great to feel so light, vibrant and free from preoccupation with food!
