I was probably not in the best frame of mind to respond. I “know” you well enough to know that wasn’t what you were doing.
You mean, binging despite wanting to lose weight? I’ve come to look on that behaviour as a clue that you are overdoing your deficit. Obviously, someone that has coached people through successful weight-loss might consider it a risk that has to be there if one wants to drop the fat fast but I do not know. Dare I @ Stu?
Anyway, as I myself am not trying to actively get leaner at the moment I don’t have a cohesive set of notes to share with you, but I have thought about the future when I do decide to lean out once more. And, I have a few alternatives in mind.
- MATADOR-diet
- Precision Nutrition-style eating, see “Here’s the cost of getting lean.”
- A marathon approach where step 3 is decreasing calories, first you increase G-Flux by training more and eating more. See " Get The Most Out of Each Step of a Fat Loss Phase" on ThibArmy
And, I think this is the one that appeals to you, fat-loss blitz. See " Fast or Slow – How Should You Approach Fat Loss?" on Thibarmy and do 8 of them spread out over the year, otherwise staying at maintenance,
