re: Intermittent Fasting experiences?

Of all the pathways I've gone down in regards to dieting and exercising, the one thing that has led to the most significant change in body composition and fitness is IF, but more specifically OMAD.
I was pretty overweight from middle school to end of sophomore year of high school due to poor dieting, although I was very active with sports. I went from 240lbs down to 190lbs (6'1 btw) after one high school season of football along with weight training. My problem has always been that I like to eat, and that didn't end when I lost all that weight. Falling back into poor dieting has been my Achilles' heal since as long as I can remember.
Then, last year, I started looking into IF, as well as keto. When used together, I noticed great results for weight loss/maintenance, better performance in the gym/sports, as well as more energy throughout the day. After about 6 months I returned to a less restrictive diet and 6 months later I went from 190 to 210. That 20 lbs crept up on me, and all those insecurities from being an overweight kid started to arise in the back of my mind. I decided that another round of IF and keto was the solution, but this time I'd try OMAD.
Fast forward to today after about 8 weeks of the combination, and I'm down to 186lbs. Now, my weight fluctuates day to day, but for the majority of the time I'm around 190lbs. This time around while utilizing OMAD, IF and a lighter version of keto, it finally feels as though I've found a real solution to my weight problem. If anyone is serious about losing weight, but are unsure of what works, I can't recommend the combination of IF (OMAD) and low carb diet enough.

Congrats Notorious
Dr. Eric Berg DC suggests a modified ketosis with IF diet and has tons of great videos that go along with it. He's helped me a lot into optimizing my diet to perfection.

OMAD
Are you Jimmy?
Some days I can go until about 2 or 3pm but then I usually eat again at 6pm.
