Carb-short days?
"revek" wrote:
DigitalVinyl burbled across the ether: I'm in OWL and still looking for my CCLL. Just wondering what people do on days when your carbs are very low. Do you try to bring your carbs up by eating something carby before end of day?? No. I don't force things like that. Trying will drive you crazy. Just accept that there will be days when you're over, and days when you're under. So long as the weekly/monthly averages are where you want to be, it will work out. I especially wonder if I should do this since I'm trying to find my CCLL. Just keep an eye on it. Weekly averages are easier to work with for finding ccll. Today my carbs are 14.1, calories 1417 (318 lb male) and it's 9:30 at night. My daily carb limit is 35 for this week. If you really worry, try eating something with lots of fiber in it. At least it will help keep your plumbing in tiptop shape. Today was very busy-wasn't hungry in the morning, grabbed some pepperoni&cheese as a snack, brought home some Loin Tip Steak (still not sure what cut that is, bought at Costco)--very similar to SKirt Steak(which I love!), ate that cause I was hungry and wanted to try it. Came home again after 7:30 and made some more steak--it was good. Cup of LC Milk. But I filled up quickly. You really need to eat vegetables. That is where you should be getting most of your carbs from. Tomatos, onions, peppers, these add flavor and variety, as well as increase your carb count fairly easily. I actually had green beans and cauliflower--that's where 7 of my 14 carbs did come from. I should have made some salad but this was not a very hungry day for me. Didn't start eating until 1:30 in the afternoon and was in a rush then. I might get hungry for a small snack by 10-10:30 (usually it is something very small - a hard boiled egg, a Wasa cracker with something on it, jello or 1/2 cup LC ice cream, pork rinds, celery & dip). Sometimes I'll use the carb gap to have a carby treat-like half a PB&J sandwich, the LC ice cream. A small salad with the above named veggies would up your carb level quite a bit without making you gorge yourself, and keep your calories fairly low too. Today is definitely not a day to worry about gorging...simply not hungry enough. Salads are typically my lunches and sometimes a side with dinner. For instance, I will be making a cobb-style salad with avocado(have avocados to use up). Although I was thinking of making a breakfast frittata(with veggies) as a brunch thing for Sunday (using spaghetti squash instead of potato in the frittata). I tried using a few chunks of canteloupe as a treat but I put on 2.5 pounds in two days of eating canteloupe--weird I can eat a lot of cals and lose weight but 2 oz. of canteloupe in a day and I'm bouncing up more than a pound a day. Must have to do with the structure of the sugars in the canteloupe. It's called fructose, and it puts glycogen in the liver rather than in the muscles. Maybe triggers restock of glycogen stores. Most assuredly. *All* carbohydrate does. Yes, but I am talking there was a major difference eating canteloupe versus every other carb I eaten. Here's four days in a row 2 oz. canteloupe (4-5 small chunks), 2200 cals/day = gained 1 pound 2 oz. canteloupe again, 2500 cals/day = gained 1.4 pounds no canteloupe, 3450 cals/day = lost 0.9 pounds no canteloupe, 2750 cals/day = lost 0.3 pounds BTW My activity levels the four days were about the same. I was home all four days. I did laundry on the first day-the only noticeable exception. So I ate 4 oz of canteloupe, 9.2 grams of net carbs and gained 2.4 pounds! In nine weeks these are the only two days I have had such significant gains. Canteloupe was the only thing that I ate that day that I haven't eaten before or after those days. For me, it certainly seems, that canteloupe triggered water gain. Whether retaining water or rebuilding glycogen stores--and such dramatic rebuilding has not occurred again or before. Even a week later when I ate 43 carbs in a day I still lost weight--no detectable glycogen restock. DiGiTAL_ViNYL (no email) 350/318/Mar-315/200 Atkins since Jan 12, 2004 |

You know...I've lost 127 lbs so far and I never found my CCLL....maybe I should go back and start over I'm really curious if your CCLL/CCLM changes over time. beyond changes in phsycial activity which will raise lower these supposedly. I was thinking for Christmas time of going into maintenance, at whatever weight I am then. Finding my CCLM and defining a range. This would allow more relaxed holidays. Don't have to worry as much going to parties, dinners, visiting families, relatives. Holidays can be very stressful in my family and even depressing! But I'm not sure if this would make it easier or harder. But partially just to see what my maintenance is. Then restart using Induction and resume OWL. Its an idea and I won't know if I'll try it till I get there. It's likely I won't enter "permanent" maintenance likely till almost 2006. I'm curious if my carb maintenance levels would differ at different weights. This has been a slight confusion for me lately. The whole carb level-ketosis talk. Too many carbs kicks you out of "ketosis" actually is confusing me now. Partially because I don't think ketosis is a state of being but a process that happens in everyone's body. To show where my head is lost... for example: if 1500 cals/day with 20 carbs = 0.25 lbs lost per day then 1500 cals/day with 200 carbs = ?.?? lbs lost per day 0.25 lbs-- the same, right. The difference would be ...nothing ...maybe less adipose fat burned?? why? I would still be burning the 1500 cals consumed (fat,carbs, & protein) and then a little more. The only thing I can deduce is that the caloric shortage may not come exclusively out of fat, but may also come from lean tissue. That would jive with studies mentioned in DANDR. The reason why low-carb focuses on fat loss where other caloric restictive diets lose fat & lean muscle tissue doesn't seem well explained--and maybe still not medically understood/proven. The fact that lowcarb has appetite supression and craving control as benefits is very understood. Also people find other medical conditions clear up--also totally sold on these concepts.

It's not *just* a matter of calories though. A cord of a particular type of wood has a certain amount of calories, but how much heat is produced depends on how it's burned. Some stoves are more efficient than others. Similarly, the human body varies in what it does with fuel. If you're running on a primarily insulin-moderated biochemistry, it's easier to store fat, whereas a primarily glucagon-moderated biochemistry burns fat. It's not that you can't burn fat with high insulin or store fat with high glucagon, it's that it's not as efficient. It's harder to put on fat with a high glucagon level, but not impossible. And it's harder to lose fat with a lot of insulin, but again not impossible. Low-carb reduces insulin levels an icnrease glucagon levels, making losing weight easier, but not inevitable. It's the difference between going downhill versus going uphill... downhill is easier, but you still have to be going in the right direciton if you want to get to your goal. Both hormones are there all the time, and all the biochemistry is happenning all the time. The point is which is in excess, which is the overall way the body runs. It's just like sex hormones. Both males and females make both testosterone and estrogen, but there's a *big* difference depending on which one predominates. |
