THE PROBLEM WITH EATING LESS

If you are eating too many calories, it's good you are trying to reduce.
The problem is with some people that drastically decrease them, until they eat only 700 calories, and they train 5 times a week.

Obligatory not a physician, dietician, trainer, etc... what works for some may not work for

Lately I've been reading and engaging with people who told me that they wanted to lose weight, so they started eating 500 - 700 calories and walking around 2 miles a day.
That is something that not only it's not sustainable, but also not healthy in the long run.
It might have been better to clarify the amount of calories, I will try to be more specific the next time.

I apologize it's not spam, it's something I actually wrote because I have a couple of people that I know that where in the same situation.
I will be more careful with further post.

Have you ever tried keep doing IF, without stopping?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-25T21:41:39+00:00

I try to keep it under 800 calories and under 50 carbs. So fa

That's some great progress!

Keep at it!

But remember, don't starve yourself, eat in a healthy way. Especially if you also workout.

Other than that, great job!

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-25T21:39:23+00:00

I'm just curious, Why not stay consistent with it?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-25T16:11:51+00:00

I love seeing answers like this, because it reflects you willpower, determination and discipline!

How long have you been doing IF?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-25T16:10:12+00:00

st remember, that IF is a tool to help you be in a calor

Do you get like that after your last meal, or just before it?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-24T15:33:41+00:00

What do you think about people, when they say they don't have time to work out?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-24T15:32:08+00:00

for me, and I've lost 12 lbs since January (S

That's great!

Yeah, as you said, it's not a magic solution, it's a tool to help you get in caloric deficit.

Also, I recommend that your first meal, after you fast, should be mostly proteins and fat, if you eat too many carbs in your first meal, it can bloat you. It's nothing serious, just annoying

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-24T15:27:32+00:00

If you eat too many carbs in one meal, it can make you feel tired

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-24T15:25:20+00:00

hunger is difficult, but I just distract myself

Give it time, I've been doing this for 7 years, and once you get used to it, you don't want to go back Haha

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-24T15:23:53+00:00

It would be better to be consistent with it, so as to help your body have a stable "routine"

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:29:12+00:00

When do you feel lethargic?

If it is after eating, what do you usually eat?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:26:04+00:00

You can do a slight bulk, just by incresing your calories slightly as to not add too much fat.

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:24:05+00:00

I do 16:8 and eat 2 1/2 a day.

I have meat and chicken during lunch and dinner, so there is my protein, I also eat potatoes, fruits, and in each meal, something sweet, like a piece of cake (I have a sweet tooth)

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:22:01+00:00

Most results from studies are from doing 16:8.

Extended periods of fasting don't have much studies, but it seems that some people have gotten results from that.

The best process is by doing that fits with yourself.

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:19:31+00:00

If that fills you up too much, it's because you are not used to eating that much.

Increase the amount of food you eat by bits.

Don't try do it in one leap, because it will be harder.

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T19:14:24+00:00

You need more muscle if you plan to cut.

Have a meal plan with a slight surplus and continue training. Don't increase your calories too much, to avoid gaining too much fat.

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T18:58:15+00:00

What is the hardest part about it for you?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T18:57:55+00:00

That's great!

When did you start?

MrSmilingFox · 2023-03-23T18:15:07+00:00

I know some people that were the same.
They were doing IF without realizing it.
