As you learned during your 24 hour fast, you don't respond well to food deprivation. So your response to the post-deprivation binge is to go back into deprivation mode? Sorry, I'm not following your logic. You seem to be asking for another binge.....
Ikrand as I said I'm going to US and I really love American food, so the binge will happen anyway - yes I'm a weak carboholic
again it's just an experiment for 2 weeks to see what happens and to see where my limits goes
thanks for the concerns but most of you have to lighten up a little I will not shrivel up and die...

OP I think you perhaps need to lighten up and stop abusing the flagging system. Not cool.0

So, hey, best of luck. There's just no reason to be pushing ideas like this onto others.
I have no intention to give ideas, it is clearly stated as an n=1 experiment, and I assume that most of people here are above 18 and are smart enough to understand this
my basic stand on minimum calorie intake is that a person shall not normally eat below his/her BMR - should I make an official disclaimer?

no flagging from my side, people are entitled to an opinion...although it seems to be a lot of "bro-science" in many replies...0 -

What do you consider "broscienc"? because I'm not really seeing any....0 -

OK I normally don't lob personal attacks so it's clearly time for me to accept my well-deserved flag and find something better to do with my day.

Pretty close to fasting it is 50% of your daily requirements to maintain, yikes.
If you are doing Keto, why are you also throwing in IF? Neither of which is required for weight/fat loss.
with only your 40ish lbs to lose your goal should have been to lose 1 lb/week, and down to 0.5 for the last 10 or so.
That said, since you are only looking at such a large deficit over two weeks, the worst that will happen is a large % of the 2-5 lbs will come from lean muscle, not just fat. If you are okay with that, have at it.
IF comes more or less natural to me since I cannot eat breakfast...
After more than 15 years of testing different diet lifestyles, keto/low carb is the only that works for me, my willpower is simple not strong enough to eat in moderation on a carb-based diet, i.e. it always end up in a glorious binge...

Also, I don't blame you for overdoing it after a medically necessary fast.
Yes I know right- but it's an experiment, and I really want to say that I lost 44 lbs in 6 months + I'm going to US in July for 4 weeks, so...
It's an experiment in decimating your LBM and feeling weak, getting inadequate nutrition and reinforcing bad approaches to weight loss...that's what it is
Agreed. Anyone supporting this is lacks a basic understanding of nutrition. I'm the same height, and I would legitimately waste away. 3000 calories is my maintenance, if I'm not lifting very much or getting enough sleep.
*Completely loses interest in this thread and drifts off into a fantasy of what life would be like if 3000 calories a day was my maintenance...*
*drool*

OMG, don't come to US! This place is really fattening! Just kiddin'. Come on and visit, but beware.0

just a minor update,
today I was a little sluggish during my fasted morning stroll, and during rest of the day I felt a little "flat", so therefore I skipped the weight training...0 -

I wish you best of luck but not in this endeavour. Success will not lie down this road
maybe that will be the final conclusion, I nowhere stated that this is a good & healthy approach, hence the title...0 -

sorry but I didn't flag you...and I don't want anything from anyone, just writing about my experiment...but a lot of people seems to get outraged of an experiment that I am doing on myself, that I find a little...weird?

I'm going to do an experiment on myself; I'm going to start snorting a couple of grams of cocaine every day because losing weight is more important to me than my health, my job or my family. What does everyone think?

GAWD you guys are so uptight, can't a girl do a bunch of harmful *kitten* to herself and tell the world about it without having to have anyone mention that it's a bad idea? JEEEZ!!-1
