I just had a piece of pepperoni pizza...

I put up a valiant fight, but my friend ordered it anyway. haha, not a good excuse, i know... but at least it was on my high carb day.

I was planning on giving myself a cheat meal every 2 weeks anyway, just didnt think i was gonna start this soon.

Next cheat: January 5th.

The carb cycle is not designed to incorporate cheats since are you taking in carbs. A cheat every 2 weeks on this plan will truely slow down progress.

Just informing you now so you don't wonder

later on

DAMMIT!

That stinks...

At least i found out only 5 days into the diet, and not several weeks, though. Thanks.

This diet is getting to be a bit of a pain. The only real protein sources i have are chicken and whey. And since i weigh ~245, that means im eating a LOT of both each day. I've got cans of tuna, but keeping my fat at 60g a day means tuna has become a rare treat. Not to mention that jar of natty PB taunting me every time i open the fridge. LOL It takes me like 20 minutes just to eat each meal. On a high carb day, each meal is like 8oz chicken, a couple cups of rice, broccoli, fish oil, etc. It's like a full time job.

Meals for 12/22: High carb day

Fat - 66
Carbs - 359
Protein - 414

*Totals not including fish oil or apples

Well, i think i've started to enjoy the high carb days. Jodi was right.

I need to find a way to make meals easier to prepare/eat, though. I've got a ton of rice in the fridge, along with chicken breasts... but the rice is really hard to get down. It's dry, and im just dying to put a T. of flax over it, but i cant if im going to keep fat down to 60g/day. I'm eating so much chicken too... and even with all the chicken, a ton of my protein is coming from whey. I'm going to give this diet my all, but i'm not sure how long i can keep eating nothing but chicken, brown rice and whey.

Hammerlynn · 12-23-2003, 05:26 AM

Maybe some salsa would help on the rice issue. Gives it some flavor and makes it not so dry

Good idea! Any suggestions as to the brand?

**P-funk** · 12-23-2003, 01:55 PM

I like Newman's own salsa.

Hammerlynn · 12-23-2003, 04:06 PM

I actually like Pace Picante sauce the best or the Tostitos brand is also yummy. Both can be found at Sam's club. Who can pass up a vat of salsa?

Monolith · 12-23-2003, 06:38 PM

Haha... i'll try a few different brands.

Are there any carbs in the salsa? Is it something i can safely have on a no carb day?

Ran out of chicken AND fish oil today. Only had 5g of fish oil left... took it this morning with the first meal. Chicken, as you can see, only lasted me to the 4th meal. Sooo much whey today... i feel gross. I need solid food, but i dont have anything else that's lean.

Leslie · 12-24-2003, 06:36 AM

I was going to say where is the fih oil

As for feeling sick, you have way too much whey

WHOA! I'm absolutely swimming in fish oil today. I ordered 12 1gx100 bottles of it on monday, and it just got here today. Should last me a couple months. It's like an early xmas gift.

Yeah... im getting sick of this whey. You know what the worst part of it is, though? It's Optimum's STRAWBERRY flavor! The most godawful whey flavor ever.

I'm gonna run down to the store today and see if i can get s'more chicken, but i'm not sure what their holiday hours are.

**P-funk** · 12-24-2003, 11:35 AM

Wow, I always wondered how the strawberry flavor tasted. I was always tempted to pick up a container just to taste it but I guess that is a bad idea, lol.

Well here's the thing... if you make it into a legitimate shake, with a couple T. of cream and some strawberrys, it tastes GREAT! But as i've been having it recently, with just water (and with 60g at a time... a lot of floaters...

), it's pretty nasty.

**P-funk** · 12-24-2003, 11:40 AM

Yeah, most flavors will taste good if blended with that stuff, unfortunatly I am mostly on the run so I have to get flavors that taste good in a shaker bottle when mixed with water.

Tomorrow i'll just have to start fresh, because today was just disgusting. I had three cookies, a piece of cake, and a slice of yule log. Not to mention all the uber-carby stuff with xmas dinner.

Ah well. It was tasty at least.

Decided to have 2 no carb days in a row for a couple reasons. One, i still felt like jabba after eating all that crap on xmas. Two, monday is chest/bi day, which usually kills me, and i wanted my high carb day to coincide with it. Still, my diet today sucked. Cals were **WAY** too low. That missed meal really killed me. Tomorrow will be a perfect diet day, or i'll die trying.

My sleep cycle is still messed up... it's 3 am and im only just going to bed.

Carbs were a little high, protein was a little low. Protein was likely because i missed my sixth meal... AGAIN. I'll get it once i get my sleep cycle back to normal.

Next low carb day i'll just stick with 1.5 cups of brown rice at the carb meals... 1.75 looks like it was just a lil too high. At least ive finally got the fat down to a consistent amount.

Besides the wheat bread, i didnt enjoy my carbs at all today. I keep forgetting to pick up some salsa at the store to throw on my rice.

Besides that, are there any other tasty carbs allowed on this plan? Besides the sweet potato? If not, i'll live with it... but alternatives would be great.

On a side note, i had a freakin' killer chest/bi workout today. I had planned on doing a dropset for my last set on chest... and feeling a little blown from the first few sets, i set the weight a bit lower than what it would normally be at. Still couldnt do more than a couple reps... lol! Weights went up in previous sets tho, so im not complaining.

Also: I saw a guy squatting near 600lbs in my gym today. He made it look easy as hell too.

I have been using Benefiber and love it!!! It causes no tummy distress and the best part is you can put it in anything. I put it in my protein shakes. 1T=4g of carbs/3 of which are fiber so it does not add too many unwanted carbs.

Nice, i'll give it a shot. 1/4 of it still being carbs, ill have to find something else to use on my no carb days, though.... ugh. steaming up broccoli every 3 hours is so annoying. :/

Again, im satisfied with the day. Fat was kept around 60g again... i'm glad im getting consistent with this. I had trouble with it in the beginning.

The salsa made a HUGE difference in the rice. Much easier to eat now. Awesome tip.

I'm almost out of whey, though... i ordered some from Mike earlier today. Hope it gets here by friday.

Fat was kept around 60g again... i'm glad im getting consistent with this. I had trouble with it in the beginning. The salsa made a HUGE difference in the rice. Much easier to eat now. Awesome tip. I'm almost out of whey, though... i ordered some from Mike earlier today. Hope it gets here by friday.
