Skipping dinner a couple of times a week can be a good idea in order to loose a few pounds ?
Those dasys I don’t do sports of course.
I already know that eating clean is better but I always end up eating more or not so clean so I was thinking of skipping dinner maybe twice a week.
What do u think ?
never underestimate your set-point. you’ll just make up for it on your other not so clean meals.
Sounds like a decent way to possibly lose some muscle going extended periods of time without food.
Why not just reduce calories at other meals slightly?
Is that bad ?
I don’t mean to skip dinner everyday. maybe twice a week or 3 times a week when those days I don’t work out.
I don’t think it’s a big deal to skip meals, as long as you make up for them. However, dinner is one of the few meals I would not miss.
you won’t lose muscle if you randomly miss a few meals a week. It would be ridiculous to think that if your body doesn’t get food for merely a few hours then it will start eating itself. I’ve seen some of my best progress when cutting if i use some intermittent fasting. It can be a great way to bust a plateau.
Don’t worry about losing any muscle.

not eating a meal in order to loose weight is ridiculous. yeah it will work. is it optimal? no.
listen to j-fit, he’s got the right mindset.
I think it will hurt you in the end. Even on my current low-intake diet days, I may be getting very low cals, and crazy low carbs, but I’m still eating something every couple of hours. That’s what will keep your metabolism speeding along.

x2 no matter what your doing always try to get in food about every two hours.
you could instead of dinner just drink a shake… that’s what I tend to do on non workout days.
