Default beginning...

Ok now..just wanted to share that I began cycling.. .and not the bike or pms!

I am on my 3rd day of carb/calorie cycling..and on the UP side.. this upping calories and carbs is not as easy as it would seem. First of all, I am eating too much I feel, and staying full for so long, that I dont want to eat the next meal, which then put me in a bind, to eat a bigger meal at dinner. Both days.. but..will stick w/ it, and see if I can make this work..

My goal: I am going to try this for 4 days UP, 4 days DOWN. I am going to try this for a total of 4 cycles and see how it does for me.

Aug 2, 3, 4, 5 = Up
Aug 6, 7, 8, 9 = Down
Aug 10, 11, 12, 13 =UP
Aug 14, 15, 16, 17 =Down

Up Days:
1800 - 2000 Calories
40 - 80 net carbs

Down Days:
1200 Calories
Under 20 net carbs

Day 1 Weight: 203, Day 2: 206, Day 3: 203

Note: I have read that about nuts.. forgot, I can add those in during my up days.. Have read that macadamia nut oil is GREAT for upping metabolism as well.. etc...
