What is the nutritional breakdown of this?
For me, it's a kilo of kangaroo. I am only eating when hungry as well, not when I have an appetite but when actually hungry. So just one meal a day at the moment, 3 or 4 hours after I train in the afternoon
159 protein, 110 carbs and 67 Fat.
Thats why My fitness pal has set out with there dam % breakdown.
Yesterday i was 30g over on protein, 16 over on carbs and 30g under on fat.
If i loose weight after two weeks then i will change the breakdown a bit, keeping cals the same.
What do you weigh and what's the goal? I find MFP always low balls the protein a bit
My bet is 0ni is bulemic. Only way he can survve on such low calls.
Hope im wrong but i get the feeling im not. 0ni post pics of your knuckles
Oh and you were asking about the health effects of mega low calories, im no expert but i think its called malnutirtion. How the fuck can you be getting the required nutrients, vits mins etc. your brain must be fucked from the lack of carbs, probably goes along way to explaining most of your posts
Cutting right now..9 weeks in.
No strength lost. Dexa says only fat has been lost...with a net gain of 100gm of muscle in my arms. 4kg of solid lard gone.
Average cals to this point ~ 2320 on low days. 2550 on high. Low for 3 or 4 days then 1 high.
P/F/C
Low day macros: 240/65/220
High days macros: 220/60/310
That went on for 6 weeks.
Have dropped 10 carbs per week since.
This week is 240/65/180 and 220/60/270
1500 calories would be dumb.
Right now im finding I have just enough carbs for training.
Tim.
Get out of here with your sensible macros!
LOL at guys (regular size) cutting on 1500 cals. My GF cuts on 1500 down to 60kg with very minimal cardio (1-2hrs max per week). (And I don't have a single female client on less than 1500)
You have options:
rapid fat loss: more likely to lose LBM
slower fat loss: less likely to lose LBM
The leaner you are the more likely you are to lose LBM.
The more obese you are the less likely you are to lose LBM.
Being on gear assists LBM but won't prevent it if the deficit is large enough for long enough.
Oni is right however that if you do go very low cal like that then the majority should be protein to spare LBM. And yes, if you do this with regular T levels, your training will go to shit in not too long.
I've done Lyle McDonald's Rapid Fat Loss 3x in the past which is a very exterme diet and is meant to be short term only. 12 days if you are less than 15% BF. Up to 3 months if you are obese (and I don't recommend it for anyone who is obese). Focusses on getting enough protein to spare LBM and enough essential fatty acids only. It is boring. It works. It is SHORT TERM ONLY.
Each gym session on RFL is about survival not PR's. It sucks. (not to mention having near zero energy to do anything else)

For me?
I weight 94kg at the moment.
My last DEXA scan in December had me at 98kg and 25% BF
My goal is just loose weight, seeing 85kg would be a good start.
End weight would be 70kg and max 10% bf - For boxing that is..
yeah man, I believe you.
As I said, there are options.
1000cals with SFA protein is a ridiculously bad idea.
1000cals with protein set at 1.5g/lb of LBM is not such a bad idea (SHORT TERM!)
