[Thong Maniac]

250
protein bar
200
veggie patty and broccoli
160
two cups chinese food white rice
400 cals
shrimp/broccolli
im estimating 400

1410 total. still want more food but i dunno

900-1000 cals a day with 24 grams of carbs(2 rice cakes) did that with 45 mins of high volume lifting,supersetting everything, and 20 mins of cardio ED

Went from blurry abs to veins on them in 10 days

I just read the whole thing too. I'm in a similar situation been dieting for 3-4 weeks. After reading that book I feel my calories are problably to high. Great tips in that book. I've been getting 1600-1800 calories. I think I need to suck it up for awhile and hit 1000 for a few weeks. I've dropped from 205 to 195 but a lot was water. I'm on the verge of being lean lol.

From May 2014 to December 2014 I consistently dieted on less than 1,000 calories a day while running and stopping weights. I lost 87 pounds in half a year, but my once thick hair also fell out in clumps as a result of the massive weight loss and has never fully grown back. I also gained back 63 pounds (intentionally).

When you eat 9000 to 10000 calories to bulk up you can easily cut with 8000 calories.

ha ha thats a  classic one bro , i  could not imagine eating 10k   calories per day didnt vic richards claim he did that

i bet he took some huge chocolate dumps  if he ate that much

seems possible i guess. maybe for a week before a show or vacation. i could do one lenny n larrys protein cookie (360) for breakfast and then a big dinner of pasta and fish and pesto for dinner. wouldnt be too bad i suppose

this is what layne norton preaches and i feel for it in the past.

when you get to desired bf level though, do you go back to a maintenence like 2500 (if you dieted on 1000)?
do you gain it all back or only a little?

[CalvinH]

No idea

it is virtually impossible to eat 10,000 cals a day for an extended period, most metabolisms cant deal with that food and simply shut you down.

Dude, thong... It does not work as natural

People who say it does are trolling

Stims, hormones, Instagram followers, no job = REQUIREMENTS

And even those can't save you long term.  Did you notice how fucking nutty gal and no one ended up?  And where are they now

[BBSSchlemiel]

1200 on a protein sparing modified fast with one cheat meal and one five-hour carb up per week. The Rapid Fat Loss Diet. I did it for one month. It was nearly unbearable but I had a LOT of fat to lose quickly after permabulking for a year and a half.

[Simple Simon]

[Simple Simon]

Been down to 1200 for a couple of weeks right at the end precontest.  The reality is it isn't going to matter that much short term (as in the next couple of weeks).  400 calorie extra deficit takes about 9 days to lose ONE pound of fat. A little less food, a little more training, wringing a little more water out, might make a 5-7 lb difference so you could look a little leaner/harder.  Lower your expectations cause it's mostly about water.

I stick to 1800 to be honest. I do 2500 on a weekend for sanity. It gets me in shape so I rarely deviate.
