What I Eat in a Day| OMAD + LOW CARB (40 lbs Down!)

In this video, I'm showing you what I actually eat for my one meal a day (OMAD), and trust me, it's not boring! I’ve officially lost 40lbs doing low carb and intermittent fasting, and the real secret to staying consistent? Making food that’s flavorful, colorful, and satisfying.

Today’s plate is a grilled seafood feast — including salmon, shrimp, lobster tail, grilled vegetables, and yes... octopus (my first time cooking it!). If you're on a low carb, OMAD, or weight loss journey, this video will give you real-life meal ideas that are protein-packed, nutrient-dense, and far from bland.

I also share how I prepped, marinated, and grilled everything, and why eating meals like this has helped me turn weight loss into a sustainable lifestyle.
