Perhaps bone loss won't happen under caloric restriction/intermittent fasting if D3 is adequately supplemented? (And apparently the RDA is ridiculously low -- many people need 5000 IU of D3 a DAY to get to a blood level of 50.)

I mean I did it for how I feel (more energetic. less moody/bloated) but didnt use those 2 words) yet eat as much as I want of protein and goodfat rich foods. this is interesting to me:

If your metabolic profile is such that you body "wants" to have a certain bodyfat percentage, it will fight to maintain that at the expense of your other tissues. The reason traditional dieting is so difficult is that your organs are starving. The only way around it is to change your metabolic profile through a good diet and exercise. Weight loss through grain avoidance, carb restriction, and intense exercise can cause fat loss without starving your organs.

I knew that extreme weight loss (trying to lose 5 pounds in a week, for example) was dangerous, but I didn't know that weight loss with LACK of weightlifting was dangerous. I'm glad I do my cardio and weightlifting at the same time. :P Wow, nice find!
