    Very low Calories on DNP?

    Hey guys, I've noticed that my body has responded very nicely today since I've had to limit my calories due to time restrictions (don't worry I've made sure I still had 2 gallos of H20). My question is, is there any HUGE forseeable problem with eating Very low calories on DNP at 400 mg every day? Say 9x body weight, consisting of mainly Pro/ Carb meals? I make sure that all carbs are either fibrous vegetables, fruit or Grainy carbs like Oatmeal, and all protein comes from quality animal sources. Let me know! Thanks

    You run into muscle loss running super-low calories on DNP .

    Yeah, yeah, dnp is muscle-sparing. Not below maintenance, which is why its usually reccomended to eat at or slightly above maintenance with dnp.

    Going super low cal on DNP (especially 400mg ED), is gonna be pretty much like going on a crash diet. I can't see that as being a good thing. But if it works for you...

    The average 200# male requires 2400 calories/day just for basal metabolic rate - Taking in 9X body weight in calories won't even cover your bmr (9 x 200 = 1800!) you absolutely will lose muscle. And you'll lose even more muscle if you workout - weight lifting burns about 600 calories/hour. Bad idea.
