watch nuts because the carbs
olive oil
mayo
butter (not margarine)
flax
coconut oil
I try to get high fat meats (pork, 80/20 beef, corned beef)
full fat cheese

Flavor your meals with carb free condiments as well...mustard, pepper, spices ect.
I personally own the anabolic solution book so if you have any questions just message me

Be careful not to turn the CKD into the bacon/sausage/cheese diet. Keep the fats healthy.

Fish Oil
EVOO
ANPB
Nuts
Coconut Oil

The carb load or refeed is usually every 5-6 days. Depending on the amount of weight loss during the week you may push it back to every 6-7 days or farther.

nuts are fine even with the carbs, you have to eat over a cup of chopped peanuts to hit 8g net carbs and thats still almost 900 calories worth...

The high fat meats are only ok in moderation, you dont want a ton of calories coming from animal saturated fats. The coconut oil is basically the only saturated fat that is ok to eat in volume.

High days should be really 1 day a week, possibly as much as 36 hours. Really depends a lot more on your body and your normal activities. If you dont do a lot of significant endurance style activities, you'll find you can easily cope with less frequent and lower volume carb ups than if you do say long distance hiking

ive been slowly working my carbs down. this is how its been thus far

830: tri-o-plex protein bar
11: (post workout) 1 scoop whey, 3/4 cup oatmeal, 8 oz skim milk
130: 8 oz talapia, 1/3 cup mixed nuts (excluding peanuts)
4: 6 oz chicken, 1/3 cup mixed nuts (excluding peanuts)
630: 6 oz turkey, 1/3 cup mixed nuts (excluding peanuts)
9: 2 scoops elite 12 hour whey. 8 oz skim milk, 8 oz water, 2 tbsp peanut butter

even with this diet i noticed my energy levels are struggling. i dont wanna just go straight into it. as soon ass i finish off my protein bars, ill drop the morning carbs. friday i do my carb load.

theres no point in doing it if you dont go straight into it, all you are doing is wrecking your performance with no benefit...

im already down 1-1.5 inches in the waste/stomach over the last week. abs/obliques show better. gut doesnt stick out. shirts fit better.

im not an obese fat ass with no discipline. however i do understand where your coming from. starting next monday, based on how things are going i will assess the diet once again.
