I just started RFL today [MENTION=9034]kaz[/MENTION]; what day are you up to?
Please read the WHOLE book. Little things like no cardio make a big difference. I have no idea why anyone would waste their energy on cardio when on crazy low cals anyway.
For others, there isn't a calorie target, there is a minimum protein to hit and otherwise basically nothing except fibrous veg and EFA's.
I personally think that it is only suitable for people who fit into the category 1 class so that it is short term.
The other thing to keep in mind is that resistance training is going to need to be modified if you are doing relatively high volume. It has some recommendations in the book but is a little vague for people already training. I'd say upping the intensity a bit and dropping the volume would be a good thing.
My first meal today was 100g ham, onion, mushroom and 500g egg whites with some seasoning and no sugar bbq sauce.
I weighed in at 87.7kg this morning. In the past when I've done it, I normally drop about 4-5kg with a portion of that obviously water. My targets work out to be around 1500-1800 cal deficit per day typically.
