Thread: Carving carbs suddenly!!!

i had the same problem yesterday on no carb day about 2-3 hours before bed..i just ate a chocolate protein bar..i had to satisfy my craving or else i would have went crazy.i guess u could have some veggies more water dunno

Just realizes the title should read "Craving Carbs Suddenly" not Carving, see I can't even type.

lol

That's why I feel you're much better off eating moderate carbs everyday...

Ok so I bulked for a while and never craved carbs. I ate the same foods I do now during a cut (brown rice, oats, yams) I NEVER craved any carbs while bulking but now all of a sudden I started carb cycling and its like hide your kids if they have crackers cause I'll eat them and crackers in full.

I now crave carbs like crazy and can't kick it. It takes soo much out of me to not eat all the crap in my house. But its weird because I only crave them like at night and of course on my no carb days. During the morning and afternoon I could do without them but come night time ooo boy watch out.

And while bulking I loved my brown rice/wild rice and my oats but now I want all the pastas and crap like that. I have also lost my urge to eat the brown rices.

HELP ME!!!!! Heh what do you guys do, or will this phase pass??

Its gonna happen bro. Your dieting and your body is gonna feel withdrawal. GRRR!

OK kewl thanks everyone. I guess my body isn't use to this ass whoopin its gettin heh. I hope it passes soon or your gonna hear of a man who raided the sara lee factory and ate every last damn thing on the news heh. Thanks for all the help ya'll, back to eatin brown rice!!!

Ive been CC'ing for about 7 weeks now without cheats. Last time i cheated was xmas.

You get cravings, but the nature of the CC diet should be keeping it somewhat in check. Sure youre eating enough on your high day?

1 gram per pound you weight split up among 3 meals correct?

I'm not big on eating alot of carbs in one sitting of the good carbs, I currently eat a cup to a cup and a half depending on which meal it is on a measured carb day. On my carb ups I eat the same because I have no desire to eat more. I only crave bad carbs once in a while. And junk food which has only been happening recently.

^^ Wow, you have no desire to eat more? When I was carb cycling I once ate three cups of old-fashioned oats measured before cooking. I've also done two cups of brown basmati measured before cooking once.

Peace.
