So I did an experiment and the first few days of my bulk I wanted to see what would happen. So I threw in a bunch of high GI carbs during different periods of the day and got bloated like ****. I was holding over 20 pounds of water. Yes 20 pounds! I woke up in the middle of the night with my ankles puffy and lower legs as well.
Then I decided to quit eating high GI carbs and switch to low GI carbs only and even though I am still eating lots of carbs, I did not experience bloat and I lost tons of water weight. Ankles went back to normal along with my lower legs.Right now my carb sources come from for the most part Brown and white Basmati Rice, Sweet Potatoes, whole wheat pasta along with Ezekiel Bread, Rolled and Steel Cut oats. Only time now I eat High GI carbs is post workout and that will be a banana mostly and an apple with my scoop of Whey. This agrees with me just fine. I think part of the problem is that many foods that are high GI are processed and seem to have lots of sodium.
Your thoughts? I read things on here and elsewhere of guys being able to eat donuts and **** and that stuff just does not agree with my body at all.
Anyone else on here experience something like this before?
