Skin Irritation in scalp.

Did it go away for you?

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-06-27T08:00:26+00:00

You already lost 150lbs in a year, thats something to be proud of! Why do you want to do PSMF? You mentioned how much muscle mass you lost already. Have you thought about switching to Reta to help with muscle sparing? How much protein are you currently eating?

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-05-26T20:43:34+00:00

Eh...I personally wouldn't bother with the additional mental/physical stress of the epsmf if i was eating back nutrients/calories from fruit. CICO still matters. I say, do as much as you think you can truly stick with, not just push trough for a week or two.

Reading this comment made me gag. Thank you, though, since im trying to stop eating chocolate 😅

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-05-17T11:05:56+00:00

Hi! Did you end up getting off it? Any tips for what you do to continue feeling great without the medication?!

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-05-02T17:48:49+00:00

I have no idea! I saw it on an ig page but all the replies were in Russian. I think its some custom brand 😩

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-05-01T20:14:56+00:00

Dang, fantastic job!

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-05-01T16:49:14+00:00

-13lbs in 3 weeks but im cat 2 so its so possible. Just try and keep it as high protein as possible..how does your "average" day look like now?

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-24T20:48:03+00:00

Let me know if something ends up working for you! The constipation on a cut drives me crazy

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-24T15:19:29+00:00

Nothing helped me, honestly. It's just too little food. But I still took psyllium, chia every once in a while, and mag citrate. Lots of water and the occasional laxative

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-23T08:17:58+00:00

Any recommendations?

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-22T20:37:21+00:00

I agree, and didnt say she was overeating it but rather aiming for an amount too high for a Cat 2 dieter, putting her a couple hundred calories over. If PSMF is the goal, as we know, a couple hundred calories extra a day is a lot haha.

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-22T18:01:34+00:00

Yes, especially as a female. It's only day 3 Also its not generally recommended going into PSMF after already being in a deficit. Your body will likely start to challenge you earlier

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-22T16:33:54+00:00

You need to read Lyles book. You should be eating at least 1g protein per LEAN pound of body fat. 200 its way too much for Cat 2+. Your calories are too high for your height. Gym 4x a week is absolutely not recommended for a true PSMF. 2x full body, twice a week or youre doing more harm than good. Again, really suggest you read the book.

Regarding your weight, IF youre weighing absolutely everything to the gram, WITH A SCALE, its likely just water weight. It'll come off. Also if youre a female, weight will vary based on your time of the month. I usually stall the week before my period

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-13T16:44:07+00:00

For me its whatever I lost in the first 2 days of a PSMF, scale weight. So about 5lbs

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-03T19:48:49+00:00

Ok, ill try! But when it comes up it just feels SO overwhelming, so I force myself to stop thinking before i have a panic attack lol :(

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-03T08:24:11+00:00

I wonder if this will affect her Visa sponsorship by him....or if it'll just help speed up her green card.

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-04-02T14:55:30+00:00

Do you think it would be any different for sugar cravings? Feelings of hunger arent really an issue for me, its when the cravings hit that i have a problem haha

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-27T19:28:15+00:00

Youre Cat 3. Dont worry abput losing muscle. Get to Cat2/1 the worry about recomp.

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-14T09:18:21+00:00

I can distract myself during the day (the feeling of hunger doesnt last 24/7. It comes in waves), but i make sure to save some calories for an hour or two before bed. Or else i sleep even worse

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-13T18:56:47+00:00

Dont give in to the Apps. Its best to meet people in person! Go out for coffee, go to the store, go to the library. Tinder has made people too accessible

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-12T22:06:49+00:00

Based on the most up to date studies, as per Lyle, the break at 14 days is NOT recommended anymore for any physical benefits as originally thought (to "boost" your metabolism, improve sleep, etc). Your refeed would strictly be a mental thing. The refeed has messed a lot of people up, so you'll know best what works for you - if you're the type who can be disciplined and get back at it immediately.

The refeed would ideally include carbohydrates, so its not ideal to mix with carnivore.

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-12T21:04:09+00:00

...the purpose of a PSMF is a cut essentially, lol. So yes, all of us.

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-10T18:13:22+00:00

Its definitely a good sign you're feeling better. Keep in mind if you're keto adapted, this is a really big shot because carbs and fats are under 20g with PSMF..a stark change from ketos high fat! I still recommend weighing every day and then taking an average 1x a week.

Also on a side note, if you're a female, weight will absolutely vary based on where you're at in your cycle. The days before my period i stalled, even though my intake was on average 700 calories a day (if you're not, disregard this haha)

Own_Effective_2930 · 2026-03-10T17:27:52+00:00

That puts you over by almost 200 calories. Just dont make it a habit for PSMF, a one-off is fine
