I agree as I am experiencing this myself almost on daily basis. As I said before, I cut my calories in half almost 2 weeks ago (around 1300 cal a day currently, should go probably for less) when I decided to try what you are talking about. I also stated that I do not use even protein powder let alone something 'else'. We all have different goals size wise but also a common goal. To get as lean as possible.
The weirdest thing was to feel hunger again after god knows how long. I was also surprised how much more energy I feel on such a low calories regime and how much pumped mentally I am in the gym.
There will always be someone bullshitting about this even before trying. Unfortunately this is Get Big where even great topics such as this one get attacked with some smart ass comments.
I believe there is much more guys on this board who agree with you and Gal in regards how to get lean in short period of time and who are already trying this system. I also bet some of the guys who are
trolling here UKJeff, BigMC, Army of One, etc (not Shizzo as he is battling different enemy-alcohol, so don't take him seriously as sometimes alcohol speaks instead of him) are thinking to try it and we might see soon UKJeff competing again at age of 48. Can you believe he is 48?
