eat clean one day, then junk next, still cut weight?

[50CentStan]

Hey bros I was thinking lets say my calorie maintenance is 2000 a day, which is 14000 a week. If I eat clean and low cal today(1200) then the next day a few cookies and a pizza or burger and maybe a breakfast pastry or something, Ya know... maybe reaching maintenance or a little over (2200) Then the next day clean again and follow this pattern. Can I still cut down? As in get shredded. The weekly total would be around 11,900 which is still below maintenance. Just curious what u guys think?

Pure math yes it would work but water weight gain could skew results depending on when check the scale in relation to a higher cal day.

That seems pretty low for maintenance.

Just using simple numbers to explain this theory I had. I may try it out in a few months and see how it goes.

I don't see why it wouldn't work seems like a good alternative diet shyt in going to try something like that. Good theory. However I'll have one extra day of clean eating which will be:
Sunday:cheat
Monday:clean
Tuesday:clean
wed:cheat
Thursday:clean
Friday:Cheat
saturday:cheat meal

Everyone will react differently to different diets/numbers

Try it for a month and see what happens

I would say more like 3-4 clean days to each dirty one. Switching every other day might be better for a lean bulk

It's all about calories in/calories out in the end.

You could eat cookies and pizza every day and still lose weight if your caloric intake was low enough. Not that it would necessarily be healthy.
