    Well I suppose I calorie cycle, although not formally.

    I do Eat Stop Eat (ESE), which is a form of intermittent fasting, once a week. Basically I don't eat until dinner time on Friday, so I only eat around 800-1000 cals that day. Then on days I exercise I eat around 2000-2200, and on other days I eat 1500.

    I've been losing steadily since June. I'm not sure if its because of the calorie cycling, since I'm also eating at a deficit and exercising consistently.
