Hello everyone,

I am intrigued but caloric cycling (a.k.a Zigzag dieting or every other day diet).

Has anyone tried this? I am not referring to the EODD where on alternate days you may eat as little as 400 calories...

but I am interested in the versions where you might have less of a drastic change from day to day to prevent plateaus and to boost your metabolism:

ie: for Fat loss
Monday 1779 calories
Tuesday 1740
Wednesday 2100
Thursday 1780
Friday 1740
Saturday 1960
Sunday 1779

I would appreciate any feedback, thanks B.
