Massive Fat Loss - 17 Pounds in 14 Days

[tomkane]

Hey guys,

I tried out a fat-loss plan that I've put together since I wanted to get ripped for the first time in my life. I weigh 170 pounds and my body fat is ~14% (based on median using body fat scale + navy seal method).

I seem to store most of the body fat in the belly/waist area, which is a problem if you want to make the abs visible.

So here's what I've tested for 5 days:
6 Meals/Day (every 5 hours)
Calories: ~1,500
Protein: ~155g
Carbs: ~75g
Fat: ~80g
Sugar: ~14g (comes all from vegetables, so no artificial sugar)

I lost 4 pounds and ~0.5 inches around the waist.

So now I'm thinking about a tweaked version of that plan where I want to get rid of 17 pounds of fat in 2 weeks.

Any recommendation how I can further enhance the fat loss? - I am highly flexible & could even split my meals to 10x a day if that would make a difference.

What do you think is the minimum amount of calories I should take? I thought about ~1,700/Day

My plan is to exercise twice a day - morning & evening - with weight training MON - WED - FRI.

Any suggestions are appreciated,
Tom

Splitting meals has no effect on the efficiency of fat loss.

Of those 4 lbs that will not all be fat loss, it's likely that a fair amount of that is water loss.

You can't lose 17lbs of fat in 2 weeks, its impossible, anything higher than 1.5lbs of FAT per week at your size is unhealthy.

If you are 15% fat at your weight/height I doubt any amount of fat loss would cause you to be "ripped" you don't have enough LBM.

What about taking some meals in liquid form (blended)?

You could sprinkle them with fairy dust too

Got something going on in 2 weeks? Shoulda started 2 months ago, 16 lbs in 2 months is reasonably possible, 16 in 2 weeks? I don't even know if that's possible, you'd need to lose a little more than a pound everyday.


Good luck.

16 lbs in 2 weeks is possible if you're morbidly obese and go on a psmf. However if I were to go on a psmf at my weight/lean mass I might lose 2-3 lbs a week in fat so maybe 6lbs total. Your goals are unreasonable if you really are as lean as you say you are.

I' say eat a lot of carbs cause you will have to walk around A LOT looking for the fatloss-wizard.

I think so. No one can possibly believe the initial question is real do they?

Tom I know you want to see results/lose weight fast but 17lbs in 14 days is too fast of a change. If you shock your body into losing weight it will freak out and actually hold on to the fat and burn muscle(starvation mode). Aim for 1-2lb loss a week and in month and a half you'll get there and it'll be safer/you'll hold on to more muscle.

You are delusional, 17 pounds of fat = 59,500 kcals / 14 days = 4250 kcal deficit per day.

If you run 4 hours per day and not eat anything for 14 days than you might burn that 60,000 calories. Good luck
