I am 5'11, ~ 172lbs and going to take a week off and eat at maintanence to reset my metabolism after 8 weeks of dieting.
Do I still take supplements and try to get 1-1.5 grams/lb bodyweight, or just eat normally?

Going to take longer than a week for leptin, peptide YY, ghrelin, and other hormone levels to normalize after 8 weeks of severe dieting.

one week at a litlte over maintanence seems to be what i read is beneficial, plus i won't be doing any cardio or weights so that should give my body a good restLast edited by garbage cutters; 04-23-2006 at 03:24 PM.
