I have been trying the warrior diet. I read the book years ago, but didn’t really think I could go all day and eat once at night. There are so many positive stories about the WD here and other places I read the book again. What I have been doing is a shake in the AM and a piece of fruit. A Dales bar and fruit for lunch, and a “normal” meal at night. Perhaps over time I can continue to reduce my day time under eating, but knowing I can apply the rules like this, makes it doable to me.
This works great M-F I am very busy at worked and no issues. On weekend it is harder. I typically am away from the house with family, and wife and daughter want to eat out (Wife is a big lunch eater and small supper eater) I have also been looking at YouTube videos and noticed many people are on OMAD, or One Meal A Day. Once difference is hey don’t just have their meal at night, many eat the one meal at lunch. They also do no snack at all etc
Thus On weekends, would it be detrimental or less optimal, but OK to eat my main meal for Lunch.
A couple other questions for those who follow WD.
Do you typically adhere to the food combining guidelines or just eat what you want within reason?
Do you typically always follow the raw veg, cooked veg, protein, and then carb or fat fuel guidelines or just eat what you want?
I think with all diets or eating strategies there are core rules that are a must or give you the most bang for the buck (20% of what you do give you 80% of the results) and the rest of the rules or guidelines are optimum but not critical.
What are your core must’s for the WD? What are your variations that have worked for you?
