So after 6 weeks aktins stage one the loss slowed . Reading on it I found that you store water in place of fat cells youve lost and it goes away at some point. That causes a weight drop. I tried a carb weekend and then back on ten carbs a day and boom 3 pounds in two days of water loss. There’s a lot to cycling I believe that should be looked at. No diet works very long for anyone the way it does at first. Maybe cycling is the key.

How often should I eat high cab and low carb? Every other day or less?

In reply to M.Gowan. I'm afraid I'm not an expert on this area so I'd hate to offer medical advice. The information in this post is simply what I found while researching carb cycling for my own use. Kudos to you for being consistent with your strength training! Since you've already developed insulin resistances, I urge you to consult your doctor about any dietary changes you plan to make. Best wishes for good health!

Thank you for the info. I wonder if this approach is still good for someone who has already developed insulin resistance. I’m finding that I have my good weeks and bad weeks low-carbing all text time. I already do strength training 5x a day.

In reply to Hadia. I also tried Atkins and I was exhausted! Carb cycling works much better for me. I hope you have luck with it.

This sounds so helpful. I followed Atkins diet a couple of months ago, though I lost a lot of kgs but it was really tiresome and I felt like I have no energy at all. Your diet sounds applicable. Thank you for sharing!

Interesting information. I will pass this on to my daughter. She wants to loose a few pounds, but more than that, she want to have a good workout.

It’s that time of year when clothes seem to fit a bit tighter for me, too. I could actually enjoy your sample menus and not feel deprived. You’ve got me craving sirloin kabobs with salad (and it’s 7:30 am!)
