[quote=Anonymous][quote=liamw]The thing I am getting at as some one who has trained for combat in a ring and in war is 500 calories 1-2 days a week does more harm over time than good. It's a lot like the people who do the cleanse + sauna thing, it may be good for your waist line but it isn't good for your body.

Your body adapts to what you take in with a huge influx your talking about its almost like eating one huge meal a day. That throws a lot of things off in your body.

Lets look at daily nutritional needs, how many do you really feel like you are meeting with 500 calories ?

Given that I eat almost entirely lean protein and vegetables on my 500 calorie day, I am actually doing pretty well nutritionally.

I am very healthy - low cholesterol, low triglycerides, lots of energy, good blood pressure, etc. I just gained a lot of weight with my pregnancies and in the last I resorted to starving myself, binging and purging, and diet pills to lose the weight. Those are all bad ideas - far worse for than that cutting out calories 2 days a week. And all of the studies I have read have actually supported intermittent fasting for health reasons. So for me, its worth a shot.[/quote]
