I am so sick of Tuna, and most of what you read really say it's not a bright fad diet to do, but I needed something to kick-start bringing my calories down. After a couple days of tuna only at around 900 calories two straight days in a row bringing some other veggies and lean meats into the diet is going to feel like a feast. Based on the Harris Benedict formula to calculate my BMR (Base Metabolic Rate) and a sedentary lifestyle (no workouts) I should be eating about 1700 calories. Now if I take into account i'll be working out 5, maybe 6 days this week I should probably be eating about 2500 - 2700 calories to maintain my current weight.
Based on the fact that i'm trying to lose some extra fat, I believe that this little kick start will help me enjoy dieting at somewhere between 1700 - 2000 calories a day to really make some good gains.
I know there are alot of people that will tell me i'm going to loose muscle mass dieting this much but I'm not really concerned with that at the moment.
