It's been my experience that carb-ups that mainly center around pasta, rice, and vegetables usually go the best.
However, about a month ago, I had a carb-up (if one could call it that) that had so much garbage in it that it would embarrass Caligula. It was just a total breakdown of focus and discipline.
I didn't have junk-food, junk-food had me. Cookies, cake, you name it, I did it. By the end, I looked like I was expecting. It wasn't really a carb-up, more like 'insulin-fest 2002.' At one point, I was just eating straight Reeses Pieces peanut butter chocolate chips. Not the candy, mind you - just the chips that come in those packages that 'normal' people would use for making cookies.
And it sort of proved my theory right - it took me longer to get back into ketosis afterwards, and I did not have the usual strength in the gym that I usually expect after a carb-up.
Just my 2 cents.
