Title correction: the author ate three servings of instant cup ramen per day, and nothing else.
One of the mentioned products was Shin Ramyun, which according to its website[0] has 510 calories per package (of which ~65% is carbs). Times three is only about 1500 calories a day[1], which will make any adult feel lethargic and cranky.
The thing about cup ramen is that it's a base, a starting point, a Minimum Viable Noodles. You want to be adding stuff to it -- for example mixing in some eggs, or cheap veggies (bean sprouts), or meat (left-over ground beef works well).
Perhaps the next article will be how they ate nothing but sandwiches (= 2 slices of bread) and felt tired.
[1] The author writes "I actually ended up losing four pounds (despite the alarming amount of carbs and calories I was consuming)", which makes me think they're bad at reading nutrition labels and biology.
