@Zachs said in getting super lean sickkunt:
Jennifer, you were absolutely dealing with an eating disorder. Veganism, 80/10/10, fruitarianism. These are death cult diets, diseases of the mind.
Our experiences were not the same in any way because i came from an omnivore lifestyle, in my 40 days i ate lean proteins and zero fat animal products and when i ended i went back to an omnivore lifestyle.
You were on a true eating disorder lifestyle for i dont know how long but to get that advanced with under weight and bone loss, it must of been a few years anyway, then you restricted even further. Do you see the difference?
My zero fat diet protocol is for people who want to lose fat, its a set of short term dietary principles that absolutely will lean someone out faster than any other diet. Its not meant to be long term, and its flexible to allow for refeeding of animal products any time and most of all its not a restriction diet.
Not the same.
No, it didn’t take a few years for my weight and bone loss to get that advanced. As you can see by my pics, within two months I had wasted away. It turned out I had an underlying thyroid disorder that was exacerbated by insufficient protein intake.
Unaware of my condition, my doctor at the time had me on various versions of plant-based to increase my weight, but they were insufficient in protein because she assumed that someone my size didn’t require more, and I didn’t know any better, back then.
Tests during that time showed how rapidly the osteoporosis was progressing and having gained back most of my bone density within just a year of fracturing, it shows how quickly degeneration and regeneration can occur under the right conditions.
You say your zero fat diet protocol is not a restriction diet, but if that were true it wouldn’t call for any restrictions. I don’t doubt your experience—I recall when you posted that pic on the old RPF and if I’m not mistaken, you also posted one while consuming a diet high in saturated fat and sugar for comparison—but just because your protocol allows for animal protein and unlimited carbs, doesn’t mean it’s not one of restriction.
I’m reminded of the RPF circa 2014/2015 when a diet of skim milk and sugar and “getting ripped” was all the rage. I even followed it briefly, based on a protocol VoS gave me to fix my digestion. @samson, you could always check out the low toxin forum and search for the thread Getting Ripped With Dr. Peat or search for visionofstrength’s posts, specifically. You might find them useful.
