Full day of eating 1400 calories (bodybuilding edition)

HOW I ATE 1400 CALORIES IN A DAY 🥗

This was when I was 3 weeks into a 6 week Rapid Fat Lose phase looking to lose around 1-1.5kg per week 📉

My protocols were:
1400 cals
105c / 30f / 180p
10k steps per day

My thoughts at the time:
Surprisingly, hunger and energy has been very manageable so far. I’m estimating a little drop off now that I’m at the 3 week mark as I’m sure any extra stored energy my body could have been holding from my surplus is gone.

But for now, this structure is working very well for me:
👉🏼 3 high volume meals a day as opposed to more frequent meals
👉🏼 Fasting till midday to save on as many calories as I can
👉🏼 Sipping on a fat burner with 1-1.5L of water during the fast has actually been extremely helpful. Tested this with 2 other people who have been starving during their RFL and they said that their hunger levels have decreased dramatically
👉🏼 Keeping my first two meals relatively simple so that I am free to make something delicious for dinner. This has helped keep my cravings in check significantly

Fast track to today, I am currently around 40 weeks out at sitting slightly above maintenance until the start of next year! Then we'll be heading back into a calorie deficit 🥲

We gonna ignore the lotion? What’s good?

[Workrategetschingy]

Ok so we all ignoring the lotion and tissues 😂😂

I’ll say this, when you have to do a very low calorie diet always have a list of recipes you know you will enjoy so you avoid making anything bad and wasting calories

Omg I would be starving as a 5’3 female who maintains on 2000. Good job though, that’s some serious dedication and willpower.

If this full ass man is eating 1400 calories a day then I am overeating 🤣🤣🤣

[aaronolejniczak]

hey bro! how many cals were you eating at maintenance? that’s a pretty severe deficit

[venuss.]

Omg... You can function with only 1400 cals? That is amazing. I swim 5-8 km a day, 5-6x a week and I eat 2500-2800 calories a day to maintain my weight.


When I was heavier, I cut 200 calories a day, then I progressed to 300, 400, 500 cals (max) until I reached my desired weight. But not that low like yours. Wow. I am amazed how you can perform with calories that low.

Shoutouts to the bodybuilders that actually work.

Fibre is an enormous help while on an extremely low calorie diet. Carrots are perfect. Before meals I would literally just eat a raw carrot and I could get pretty full from even just a slice of toast

[dangdeionn]

I’m sad cause this is my maintenance and I always have to eat 1800 to feel satisfied even on a high protein diet.

[FIYOS]

1400 is crazy low holy hell your discipline is commendable

[Brian_adem]

Thanks for giving me new meals I can eat 💪💪💪🦾🦾🦾

[realkingofantarctica]

He has a valid point to make. Followed.

[asterking]

Do fat burners really work? What do you use?

[Koumphanh]

That guns are looking, Super bad ass brother, keep it up 'Aussie pide lol

[DGD]

Bro how are you maintaining as well as gaining size on 1400 calories? Including your work outs and normal expenditure, you’d be burning a lot more than comsuming?

[ston_jude_ed]

Wait till bro learns about Sparkling Water

[vantwilightlee]

Wait a minute. Cetaphil? You dirty naughty short king. 🤣🤣🤣

[Ollie-sx]

I feel absolutely horrendous on 2000. My job is very manual I think it’s too low, but I’m just gonna hang in until I get abs. I have striations on my legs and a little bit of belly fat too, pesky genetics, can’t be complaining about leg striations tho most can’t get them at all

[kaptaink]

I had to go back, I was like is that lotion in his hands. All good, it’s part of his work out, must be the secret
