[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1990845, member: 219467"] OK as you seemed determined to do this can I give you some advice. I'm not a ND advocate either because it forces your body into an unrealistic mode but..... Firstly I'd suggest you follow a very low carb diet for a month or 2 before restricting calories excessively. Try and get into ketosis first and then fat adapted so you can access your body stores of fat for energy. Once you have done this and have got rid of any carb addiction you may find that severe caloric restriction may be easier. When you are cutting down on intake try reducing meal frequency (cut down your eating window.. you could try this from the outset if you... like skip breakfast maybe) Try and end up eating once per day. Once you have got there then maybe try cutting down on food to the 800 cals.. you might find your weight is already dropping off enough so you don't have to cut back so far. I realise that you probably are after immediate results but "crash dieting" which, lets be honest, is exactly what the ND is can be pretty unhealthy so ease yourself in. Or maybe as an alternative therapy try looking at caloric intake over a 7 day period and include some days of fasting..? From fasting you get better lower insulin levels which is great for long term health. [/QUOTE]
