Dexa Results: 50 Years Old: Feel like this can't be accurate?

Going to give it 30 days back on OMAD with serious cardio. Will retest then involve a specialist if things have trending seriously the right direction.

What is your rationale for doing OMAD? Do you think having all your daily calories in one sitting will make you healthier?

First off Great work! Keep it up. I take 4000mg of Omega-3 a day and that lowers my lipids but if you really want to get it under control have the Doc give you Atorvastatin Calcium 10mg a day or Ezetimibe 10mg a day. I have experimented with them both and the Atorvastatin works the best. In fact only one dose before your blood test will lower your levels over a 100 points. Well,at least it did in my experiments. Also,

I have the same question.

My lipids have always improved running in deficit and during weight loss. OMAD is easy for me so that was the thought process.

If you're on a sufficient dose of GLP-1 agonists, it should be difficult to get an adequate amount of protein in one meal. There's also the fact that a 25g bolus of protein early in the day triggers mTOR which will blunt catabolism.

Yeah OMAD might work for a crash diet but it's not muscle-friendly. Muscles prefer something like 4 protein-rich meals/d.

Guess it also matters what are your goals, how fast you want to get there, and at what cost.

Goals are to quickly right the lipids. Then get back to a diet that is conducive to hypertrophy. I don't disagree. I think the lipids issue is likely a quick fix. But it needs to be fixed first. Still training like a banshee. Just dialing down the diet and completely back to TRT.
