That's not all fat that you've lost
Definitely I feel I lost some muscle tissue. I struggle with some weight to lift that was not big for me like 2 weeks ago.Unfortunately I feel I lost quite a bit of pure muscle strength... :-(
Why would you do that to yourself?
I suspect it is just the way it is.. you lose some fat, some muscle, I can't really help it. Sure I want to lose only fat, but it is just not the way thing work out.0 -

This does not appear to be working for you. I would suggest logging your information into MFP, setting a moderate goal, and then eat to your calorie goal. And if you find yourself lacking energy, perhaps try cutting back on the wine and getting more nutrition through food.
I lost 6 kg in less than 2 weeks. It works out very well. It just can't go forever, losing weight at this speed.
You might be disappointed that at least 2 of these kilograms will return as soon as you start a normal weight loss program. With the limited amount of food you have been having and the alcohol you likely lost quite a bit of water weight0 -

Actually, it really doesn't have to be like that. I've lost about 90lbs, 40lbs since lifting weights, and I've gone from a dead lift of 65lbs for reps to 235lbs or so. You don't have to lose strength to lose weight.
But, you also don't seem to care about any advice given to you.0 -

The way you preserve as much muscle as possible is to drop the weight at a reasonable deficit and lift heavy. It's a lot harder to regain muscle than it is to preserve it while losing. You should up your calories and start lifting.0 -

Sure I am sad I don't lose more weight and fat and that I am nowhere near my target. However it feels like lowest body fat level for me in years

Water, LBM and a little fat
Strength, skin, hair and nails at risk
Bad diet (mode of eating) is bad whether it fits in a box or on the head of a pin

Stop feeding attention to this guy and his ridiculous box diet. If it's not a joke, and I still highly suspect it is, he refuses to listen to anybody's advice anyway.0

Your diet sucks
Is grossly deficient in major nutritional requirements

No, it's not a joke, there is a book called The Lunch Box Diet, and this is definitely it.0 -

What doesn't make any sense is your commenting efforts. My diet is not the same as the lunch diet.0 -
It's nothing to do with what I eat ...although my diary is balanced and full of deliciousness
It's more to do with understanding macro and micro nutrients and their role in health and wellbeing ... Your boxes imply that you're Israeli ..you have access to amazing fresh foods and a wealth of adaptable recipes. You clearly have Internet access so could look up minimum recommended nutritional requirements on many recognised sites, not one of your daily plans has reached those minimums
@Wheelhouse15 ..lats and arms are looking darn fine

OK well um........if your diet isn't about things you eat then.....never mind. ..
When you realize this diet isn't what you think it is, we will all be here to explain how a well balanced diet with a reasonable yet responsible calorie deficit is the way to go for lasting success.0 -

But since you aren't eating enough protein - you are losing muscle too. Continue this way and you will end up damaging your heart.0 -
