Have any of you done this? As its the way I lose fat for photoshoot or holiday.
It's not the healthiest way, but its quick.
My trainer and buddy showed me how to do it and I've been doing it ever since. Especailly for my bodybuilding shoots.
Its so much easier knowing that I can eat "sort of freely" then when I need to burn the fat really quickly.
The quicker I do it the less pain of dieting and less of a drag on and on and on.

You basically get in a calory defecit and eat protein and veg and do weights 3 times a week.
Eat really clean. Up good fats and drink 3 litres of water in a nutshell.
But i'm tring to stop going up and down. But its easier this way for me.
What do you do?0 -
This site is great for recording calories though. I've never bothered before so I may be able to do it even better on this site. lol0

Ha when you crash diet the weight always comes back so its only short term.
protein and veg/salad and leave out breads etc.
I have come on this site to try to come down and stay down but when you weight train sometimes its hard to not eat too much .0 -
You do what you want Adam.
When w we train in the gym we put weight on then lose water and fat to show muscle so its different.
i'm trying to see what other people do. Thank you.0 -
That sounds like the HCG diet.... without the HCG.... and the weight gain after, but the low calories and protein / veggie thing.... SO HCG! I think with any low calorie, high protein run, any of us has a high possibility to lose weight. It is the maintenance after that is was is so critical. You had mentioned that you yo~yo your weight though so I am saying nothing you don't already know. I am a bitter sweet HCG dieter, but I am an HCG dieter. It has downfalls that I don't like, but I love the weight I lose on it. I am in round 2 of HCG and so far so good, but it is a very strict way to go and I don't think I, personally , would suggest anybody that I know to do it. If you are not careful, you will gain every ounce back! Trust me, Thanksgiving was not nice to me..... but.... I am back on track, I am getting to my goal weight and I am going to maintain the right way and maintain for life. Good luck to you.0

Thank you some one else too.
I just read that HCG diet and it looks to complicated for me.

How do you do it? What's the diet / exercise plan?
the excercies plan is when I am on my mad diet:
Dead lift
Squats
Barbell clean & presses
Bench Press
Dips
Pull Ups
Renegade dumbbell rows
Cable rows
Vertical Lift for 4 weeks (3 times a week)
and
Leg extension
Calf Raise
Shoulder press
Pull up
Lat raise
Bicep curl
Triceps extension
Dips for 2 weeks (3 times a week)
Then after a few weeks when I have off and just do the odd thing in the gym or will do nothing as I dont need to diet for a bit hope that helps.
My diet is a huge calory defecit and not for the fient hearted - when I do it. Saying it the workout isn't very girly either, but they are quick and intense then i get out of the gym quickly.
I have green tea and coffees to.0 -
doesn't sound effective if you have to keep starting over, huh?
Why not try using MFP and see if that doesn't give lasting results?0 -
Maybe i should give slimfast a go then.
I'm so lazy i'd love it
I try to stay off the carbs so 2 carby milkshakes a day would be my heaven!!!
Ha.
Aslong as I didn't eat all that chicken I love too... He He.0 -
For those on HCG, just food for thought:

Ha. You're right!!! I will do.0 -
I follow the Primal Blueprint, which is eating clean, lots of healthy fats, and no grains, legumes, sugars, or high glycemic-index fruits (though fruit is not banned - just the really sugary fruits like pineapple and melon and bananas). I totally love it, and the weight has been melting off so fast.
Primal exercise is great, too... If you want to learn more, check out marksdailyapple.com, or stop by the Primal?Paleo support group here.

Crash diets can work well if done correctly, but one of the problems with crash diets is that the dieter never learns sustainable weight management. A crash dieter can be taught how to maintain when the diet is over, but it rarely happens this way in real life.0
