    I’ve personally found lower deficits to be more maintainable over time, with a big deficit you can see the effects really fast but I also find that my weight was more prone to rubberband very quickly after stopping the diet.

    If you can maintain a super low deficit and then keep the weight that way after that’s great, I just don’t think it’s really universally applicable.

      Lower deficits and exercising are much more effective to lose weight long term instead of doing the yo-yo like the majority of people who believe in diets.
