Question with Carb Cycling

[cider303]

I have been carb cycling for the past 2 weeks now and supplementing with fish oil caps and on's whey protein. I have noticed that mainly on no carb days I am highly aggressive and I have a very short fuse. Does this happen to anyone else? If so why is this caused? How do you deal with it?

thanks,
steve

Yes, Lack of carbs, hunger etc. 5HTP helps but I just really keep running through my head that tomorrow is a high carb day and I dream about a big f'ing bowl of oats

haha thanks jodi, atleast I know im not alone. Its strange tho, I don't get really cravings for carbs unless it is post workout in which case I crave sugar.

I am cranky as hell on zero carb days.

hey guys, I have never done carb cycling before becasue "low carb" on cutting always kinda worked.....I want to try it tho, this year I want to be in the best shape then ever (meaning I want to go down to about 8%) But not loose to much muscles on the way...how does carb cycling work exactly,I will do research about it but you guys can include your ideas......I am great with my diet habits, Im 196lbs, 12%bf and 5'11....

My wife tries to keep her distance on no carb days... I don't always know it, but no carb days just bring out the asshole in me.

Everyone around me use to know when it was my no carb days...and come like 3-4 pm I hated the world. I was just better off staying home for the night lol
