The only wt I have lost has been when I had a weekly carbup of 300 carbs. I lost 25lbs pretty easily. Then I decided to do straight lowcarb and my weight hasn't changed in 9 months. When I tried meat and egg I gained weight! WTH? I recently was on a lifting website www.bodyrecomposition.com they recommended that I eat more. I eat 100 carbs/day and carbup 150carbs and have lost the 9lbs I gained trying to do strict lowcarbing. I exercise about 2 hours/day, but I don't care about muscles either, I just want the fat gone.

Hopefully carb cycling will be the thing that works for me.

seasoul I love Lyle McDonalds book on Flexible Dieting. He is a physiologist, he goes into the biological stuff that happens dieting and carbups. He only recommends carbups (big ones) if your %bodyfat is less then 35%. He also recommends everyone have 2 free meals a week, I live for the free meals! You can get his books at the body recomposition site. He also wrote the PSMF diet.
