I have also made the decision to try and go low carb from next week too! I have a very busy weekend with friends etc, I am going to have a look at my food diaries to see if I could cut my carbs out on my UPs although to be honest I don't actually eat a lot!

I am intrigued regarding what doing an ID instead of an UP does so it should be very interesting next week!!!

Looking forward to it!

Very intresting :)

I'm lookin to do a low to moderate carbs plan. Then will use my up days for competiton training :)


Thinking under 50g would be doable, then 100g moderate carbs days

I'm finding your thread facinating and Yummy sounding :)

Xxx
 
Watching my carbs is for me the single most important factor.

Like Rebekah I try and keep carbs below 50g on DDs and below 100g on UDs. DDs so far have been 25-40 and UDs 60-80g. I also do my running and strength training on UDs, with just a walk or a bit of swimming on DDs.

Breads my downfall. I don't eat pasta or rice, cakes or biscuits etc, But I NEED my bread so I limit myself to max 1 slice of wholemeal multiseed a day.
 
Hi Ruth I am aiming for something similar , not bothering about the carbs but I want to find my maintenence cals for my tues thurs UP days, I will leave my DD s unchanged and so too my weekends as I love having the weekend off but I know I eat too much on my UPs so starting tomorrow I am going to limit myself to 1500 and see where I go from there, hopefully I should have a sts, then theoretically lose following my DD fri but of course this is all theory but thats part of the excitement. Ideally I would like my plan to be M,W,F DD Tues and Thurs as maintainence level whatever that turns out to be then UP S at the weekend. In theory I should lose at least a 1lb a week without worrying about a STS but unless I try it out I will never know. Really hope you see a good loss tomorrow as that will back up my plan and of course be brilliant for you xx
