Following up from yesterday's saga: No, I do not have sugar or carb cravings today after the ONE bite of cake yesterday.
New interesting thing: I had a high carb (69%)and low fat day (10%), followed by a higher fat (28%) and lower carb day (40%), now followed by a moderate day - and weighed in at my new low this morning!
So, did my little "experiment" with carb cycling and even sometimes calorie cycling prove itself effective?
Hmmm - not sure yet, but might try it again to see what might work - or even wait until Thanksgiving week when there will be carbs galore in stuffing, potatoes, and corn casserole!
I will keep you informed about the new "experiment" and see how the Idiot Box responds!

Yes, I'm so eager to hear how the cycling goes! And, good for you on your new low!

That's awesome, HCB. I don't know if cycling helps me or not. I have been terrible with RDI the past two weeks, I am trying to get it back under control now that I feel up to logging and being strict with myself. You seem to have this whole thing figured out better than I do most of the time.

That's great news! I have heard that calorie cycling works but never gave it serious thought. But because you mentioned it I am paying more attention to the amounts of carbs/fat/protein I am eating and I hope that will help me.

I'm laughing because your carb cycling days seem to come by accident - just like my spike days!

Thanks for the feedback on that, it's all a big experiment, isn't it? I think staying cognitive of what we are doing, paying attention to the results, and adjusting as necessary is necessary for success. I think I'm becoming a bit obsessive, but oh well :-)
