Hi @Wendy18480 i was tagged into the conversation but seem to have missed it so apologies.
I'm also usually an OMAD er and have recently being trying a carnivore way of eating. However at the start I did follow a ketogenic WOE which combined with some fasting worked well for me for both weight loss and BG control. I also had a very bad reaction to metformin so only took them for a brief period then stopped. Personally I rarely eat fruit or root veg but apart from those elements it sounds like you are doing everything correctly. As a man it seems that weight loss came quite easily to me but I think that a number of women have more problems with that. I would suggest sticking with it and maybe concentrate on lowering blood sugars and you will probably find weight loss will come in time. Beware however of not eating enough.. if you only having one meal a day it is quite easy to slip into calorie restriction which may not help your weight loss journey. If I can help any more please let me know.
