I seem to have my diet figured out for now, I think I may stay here for a while and see how it goes. I'd like to keep some carbs in my diet to aid in muscle recovery. Either way 2500 calories is quite a reduction from my bulking diet, and Ive reduced my carb intake to about half of what it was, so if I lose 1 pound every 2 weeks I'll be happy. Ive worked too hard building the muscle so far to just diet it all away.

Carmen turned me on to carb back cycling. You may want to have a look at it. The science is sound behind it. It just sounds ridiculous. :) (Sorry, Carmen.)

What I've done so far works, maybe someday when I care a little less I'll give it a try, but doing basically an atkins induction every week and then carb loading for 1 night at the end sounds very unpleasant to me.

NM, see another example of what I like to call "complete control" over your diet. :)

LCHF ketosis is hunger-curbing, and muscle-sparing once you adapt, but carb backloading or cycling from the start might make that adaptation period drag on unpleasantly long. However, I have heard of some well-adapted individuals who, with careful planning and calculation, can shift in and out of ketosis for workouts.

MCT oil. Instant long lasting energy without the crash that comes from carbs. Works for me.
