Damn, this sucks! I'm experimenting again with the PSMF for a couple days and then, possibly, all next week and I would just like to say that this shit sucks!

That is all.

LOL, quit bitchin!

Ive been doing PSMF with some weekend carbs for about 3 or 4 weeks now. Its working awesome. At least for me, I get used to the constant hunger so that its not much of an issue anymore. But days like yesterday where I had no breakfast, lunch and 1pm, and then went to class and didnt get to eat till 10pm, that sucks!

As a result, Im gonna have abs just in time for sweater season.

I think it's the no tortilla thing that gets me. I'm serious, I'm addicted to Mexican food. If only my g/f wasn't some newfangled, American born beaner and she knew how to cook, I'd be set for life.

I love Mexican. Theres an awesome place near where I live that has flour tacos that are to die for! They arent tortillas or soft tacos or anything like that. They are some flour mixture that is lightly fried; they end up about a half inch thick of soft, fluffy goodness! Another local place makes some awesome burritos.

But this weekend I think were going out for Japanese.

Hey, the formula is 1.5 g of protein per pound of LBM, correct?

[Bob Smith]

Something like that, yes. If yorue really fat, you would use 1.5g/lb of total bodyweight, and as you get leaner, you would shift to 1.5g/lb of LMB. But as you get leaner, the two values would converge anyway.

WTF is ps....pmps....spm....pms.....aw fuck it, what the hell are you guys talkin about?

It stands for "protein sparing, modified fast". It's an extreme ketogenic diet which is comprised of protein and the least amount of fat and carbs you can possibly intake with that protein. Supposedly, it can yield approximately one pound of FATloss per day. Supposedly.

Depending on your size and level of fatness, I think the values are closer to .5 to .75 pounds of actual fat loss per day.

Where can this diet be found? Is there a website that outlines it or can is on this site somewhere?

[Bob Smith]

The most information will be found at www.bodyrecomposition.com Go to the forums and they have a special one just for PSMF.

I have not read about this PSMF and the one link is dead.

But I can say that ketogenic diets (I have done before many times) requires fat for fuel.
Very low fat and no carbs tell the muscle to use protein.

I have some super articles on the muscle sparring effects of keto type diets that go back almost 100 years.

Another dude came up with the anamalbolic diet that is probably similar to a modified fast.
Id like to see some articles on this.
I am quite opinionated on diets and am familiar with most but not this one. If you give me a link I promise to be openminded.

Fat loss is actually really easy if you have the right tools of knowledge and some dedication.

Fasting type diets do go into starvation mode.
Many people are insulin resistant and this makes dieting hard.
Insulin resistance is 80% diet controlled and 10% exercise.

You can live without carbs you can not live without fats and protein.

I would like to see this diet.
Anyone have an e-book on this?
