Anyone ever do a protein shake diet with fiber/EFAs

[beefybull]

Could one get away with only taking in protein shakes, fiber (to keep you "regular") and EFAs?

I guess you could have some nuts or veggies with this to keep you sane but the point would be rapid weight loss. Mr. X, any opinions on this?

 

[psychedout]

Mr X has a diet called the fat fast diet which is quite similar to the one you are describing.

My only question is, why only liquid? I would die of hunger.

Load up on the veggies(Broccoli, Spinach, etc...) if you are serious about trying this. 2 cups a meal should keep you from going hungry.

Green beans, celery, spinach and other veggies could make up virtually all of the solid food.

Protein Shakes
Veggies
Fiber Supps
Water

I'd do this short-term to cut a little. Any recommedations on how long you'd run this?

What kind of weight loss are you going for? and how long on this diet?

Shakes digest really quick. I would be starving.

8-16 weeks. As much fat loss as possible. Going to switch lifting to 3x week.

Go for it. The fiber and fats would keep the whey from digesting too quickly.

Do any of you think you can get too much fiber, or can you eat alot?

You can get fiber CHEAP at Wal-Mart. ON or similar protein online for CHEAP. Some companies even sell 50-150lb buckets of protein. I recall Macro or someone mentioning having a bucket of protein but not where he got it.
