Goal
Loose inches all over, firm up and build a booty. Basically lean with a booty

Current nutrition
30 g carbs
100 g protein
31 g fat
800 calories (I know that's low but I don't get hungry! I eat alot of bulky vegetables)
LOTS of water
I will change my macros and calories once I am in maintenance mode and include more carbs if needed.

Supplementation
Preworkout
BCAA's during working
Protein shake + Glutamine after workout
CLA liquid first thing in the morning

Workouts
Morning fasted cardio
Evening - lifting/hiit with a personal trainer

I have basically 5 weeks to my first goal and I need to ensure I am not sabotaging myself in any manner.

Anything I should add, takeaway, change your expert opinions are appreciated.

Hungry or not, you need to eat more. 800 calories seem very low.

Add grass feed butter to most meals or coconut oil. Will raise the calories up a ton and fat as well.

Like others are saying you need more calories.. If you are not hungry then just add fats to your current meals like butter, heavy cream, etc... Fats are more the 2 as calorie dense as carbs and proteins so it will give your cals quickly... Also to add since you are working out with weights and are doing HIIT I would definitely make sure you are getting at least .8g of protein per lean pound you weigh otherwise you will lose muscle and that is primarily what you are trying to build that booty with...

0-30g net carbs
.8g protein per lean pound
adjust fats to hit a suitable caloric goal

I'm not sure if you're trying to follow a ketogenic diet (I saw this post in another section as well) but if not, carbs digest easily so they can help boost calories.

If you are cut the apple out and replace it with some nuts. Add some avocados! Guac is a girl's best friend.

29G net carbs
110G protein

Is this better ?

[skawaat]

Yes I am trying to follow a keto diet .... Is that the most efficient ideology for fat loss ?

What's your TDEE? It's hard to judge without knowing that number. If your TDEE is 4K, then yes that number is too low. If its 1.5k, I'd say 1k calories is a bit low but if your set on a goal for 5 weeks, I'd say fine. Typically, I think 30% deficit is the about as high as you should go.

To be clear, fat loss will be the same under any diet as long as your calorie deficit is the same. So eating 1k calories of Twinkies and Big Macs will produce the same results as 1k calories on Keto diet. The benefits of Ketogenic diet is the reduced hunger and increased energy so don't feel like you're starving or dieing with low calories.
