Protein only crash cut

HungryasFuark

After a week of heavy binging ( 5000 cals n more daily) what do u guys think about a short term ( 2 weeks ) protein only crash cut i will be getting around 1100 cals ( 180 g p) ( not PSMF ) coz i will be getting some diary in , i will keep my workout routine which is a 4 day lifting split and 20 min cardio on lifting days ..rest 3 days ..i did a cut like this before but i was overweight back then and i didn't lose muscle and i kept my strength but now that im leaner am i going to lose muscle ?

More likely you'll lose lean mass for sure. At 19 that's going to be a pretty massive deficit and the energy has to come from somewhere.

Also, how do you get protein without fat or carbs?

Nissi51

Yes and don't do that...

Why would you think this is ever a good idea?

coz that's the only diet that gets me back on track and shuts down my appetite and it helps in flushing the extra water i'm holding on too

I feel like you don't have a good relationship with food.

I've binged and now I'm going to greatly restrict me intake = eating disorder.

I think it's easy to get a little panicky if you've gone off the rails. However, going from binging to starving is not the answer. You'll just set yourself up for another binging cycle.

^and this. Don't panic. Go back to normal, with a small deficit, and carry on. Compensatory behaviour for binge eating is a key feature of certain eating disorders.

When did water become the enemy?

Just go back to NORMAL eating.
Not some crash diet.
Because that isn't a healthy relationship with food or helping yourself in the long run

I'm planning on doing a max 10-day PSMF after the New Year to lose some pounds gained over the holiday. You don't do a heavy workout on it.

If you think you have a predisposition to an ED, obviously, don't do it. But a two-week diet does not in and of itself cause one. For some people, streamlining their eating for a limited period is helpful.

Dude, you are 19...when I was 19, 5000 calories wasn't a binge...it was a Tuesday. There is no reason to do what you are suggesting....no reason whatsoever.
