Carb-Nite Solution

Yes. Minus the regular re-feeds. I had a carb-nite last yesterday and feel very ordinary today.
Thanks Spades. I'm all over it. I only feel average the day after I re-feed.
If i don't re-feed. No problems.
Tweaked.

Max, you've definitely put on some size so far.
What's your weight difference since starting?
My heads not feeling right on this diet, a few headaches lately and coming to the end of the 9th day.
Not feeling high energy at all, just feel a bit stunned waiting for something good to happen.
Seems to be bad for my skin too.
I am a little leaner, but weight has stayed the same over the last 4 days, so initial 1.5kg drop must have been water only, definitely no muscle loss.
Don't know if I'll continue this much longer, may just go low/moderate carb and cut out a lot of bread, pasta and sugar.
Finally can carb up tomorrow night.
I didn't read the book, too poor to buy it, so what are the suggestions please?
Does it matter if my daily calories blow out ?
How should I eat during the day and then at night?
Thanks

Just to add to this thread:
I have a neighbor from russia or there abouts and has banged on about what she eats.
She reads a alot of books and has some degree and was in some high position before she moved to oz.
Anyhow she eats twice a day consisting of:
6 x eggs for breakfast,cooked in pork fat.
Dinner is Meat,mainly pork i think,sausages,bacon,potatoes etc.
She does not have sugar,doesn't eat bread but odd occasion she does though.
Doesn't eat rice or pasta.
She does have the odd cake etc.
Has butter,cheese etc and doesn't eat fruit/vegetables except for tomatoes,mushies.
Likes a beer on occasion.
She doesn't eat chicken as she said it's bullchit,chicken grown in 2mnths,bullchit
Funny lady,has 20ys on me and has heaps more energy,go figure.
Cheers Spades.

How's that work JASA?
You eat only carbs that grow above the ground, what do you eat that you dig up then?
How about the high-fructose corn syrup
The amount of sugar we consume nowadays in comparison to earlier times
My wife has sugar in her coffee or tea whilst I have none, so its interesting to see how often the sugar bowl gets refilled
Hi Redwing,
You still have to dig out veg that grows above the ground for example lettuce, cabbage cauliflower and broccoli. I avoid carrots, potatoes and starchy above ground veg too like corn. I wouldn't touch corn syrup with a barge pole. I'm not always good though and binge on Tim tams occasionally.

It would be interesting to see the historical info on incidence of diabetes, heart disease etc in the US circa 1822. (I know lots of things have changed since then)

Cause she eats like early man ate with nothing processed apart from those "occasions".
Her diet is similar to,ours only we eat a lot of coloured leafy veges and no potatoes, only sweet potato, and eat most meats incl chicken, but I don't really like to eat the chook for the same reasons she states.
Never been healthier. Before, I was bordering diabetic.
Hiya The Fence,
My diet is pretty much the same as yours with some tweaking.
Btw i was taking meds for high blood pressure n high cholesterol,change in diet has got rid of meds and everythings back to normal
That's what i was thinking dtraeger re:height/weight as you'd have to factor that in.
@Maxwell-Alot of effort in calculating what your taking,good onya but i'd personally prefer just to eat right,exercise and get a good nights sleep.
Horses for courses i suppose.
Cheers Spades.
There is no doubt now that sugar and too many carbs are the big elephants in the room and along with very little exercise, it's no wonder we have an "expanding" population that is getting sicker by the day.
Agree on the keeping it simple routine of no calculating and simply eating right and living a healthy lifestyle.
It's coming out now as weve seen on Catalyst, that colesterol is not the baddie and that "conventional wisdom" is a work still in progress.
