Default Sample refeed menu?

I "cheated" with a sensible "refeedish" thai meal and then some very unsensible cookies 1.5 weeks ago and my weight loss sped up. I never even gained weight, nor did I drop out of ketosis!

BUT.... I kind of slowed down again (without changing anything), not to mention not feeling as good.

I want to do a real refeed the RIGHT way. I've done searches on it and it's like I'm reading Chinese. I don't want all the mumbo jumbo jargon...

Is there a sample 2-day refeed menu hovering about somewhere? Or can anyone who has successfully refed themselves throw out a sample one for me? I'll smile real, real big!

Thanks in advance!

Your refeed seems rather tame and low-carb. Refeeds are about high-carb and low-fat.

I never did 2 day refeeds, I tended to do one to half day refeeds - all I can handle. When I was fatter I did one day every two weeks, and changed to one day every week as I got thinner. I always dropped out of ketosis.

In my typical refeed I would eat Fruit Loops, Corn Pops, liquorice, pasta, low-fat cookies, low-fat chocolate bars (no nuts), fruit juice (grape is perfect) and soft drinks.

A sufficiently gross food selection that there was no problem leaving it after that day. After I finished with refeeds, it was nice to not do (for good I hope).

I consider refeeds a weight loss tool with scientific merit that worked well for me.
