    cutting carbs back to 80 grams per day next week. keeping calories in low 1500s so i'll have the nudge the fat up a bit. (fishies!)

    then maybe the following week i'll see if i can work out a carb cyle with jodi and/or TPs help to use during the new training program (TPs)

    Hey girl, I'm so glad this diet is working good for you.. I tried it for 2 weeks, and high carbs w. low fat didn't work for me.. I'm never satisfied after I eat

    hi sara - my progress seems to be a little slower this way...but i feel good. actually i don't think anyone would really consider it a high carb plan. it's just high compared to the DPw8 plans we've used before.

    i'll be honest though - i'm still not quite sure where my body stands with carbs. i feel better eating them. way better. BUT i think i dropped fat faster with lower carb higher fat plans of my past (i think?)

    hopefully soon i'll know the answer. seems like 1 plan makes me feel better and is easier for me to live with (more carb, less fat) but the other types get me leaner (less carbs, more fat)

    next week i'm starting a new training program (TP's) and i'd like to give his carb cycling a whirl at the same time.

    i'll keep everyone posted.

    Looking fwd to watching your progress....I understand what you mean about the mderate vs low carb approach in terms of how you feel...that's why you may get the best of both worlds out of cycling your carbs.

    hi greeky - i think the carb cycling is gonna be good. i tried it for a minute after coming off a VERY low carb plan and i just wouldn't eat enough carbs on high carb day and i'd try to throw in extra no carb days...

    now that i don't fear carbs to the extent i used to i think i'll be ready to do the plan the way TP intented.

    the hardest part's gonna be NOT counting carbs on high carb day. i love counting.

    thanks atherjen. i think i'll do well with it now too. it was a rough transition for me after following extremely low carb plans but i'm ready now. i will remember how important the high carb days are and eat up the carbs. for some reason it seemed scary before. now i have faith and i'm ready.

    and since i like to plan....i'm working out various meals to eat on no carb, high carb and low carb days 'cause i like it organized.
