Just wanted to say that i do subscribe to the blowout club because it works for me. I also found starting the diet mid afternoon works for me too. I had a hearty lunch and went to see my cdc at 3pm for my first weigh in and to get my packs. Now although it slightly affects my starting weight, it helped me get through the first evening and well into the next day (got up really late!) and before i knew where i was day one was over. I also shifted my packs and day along for the first 3 days (got up late and started packs later in the day) and was in ketosis by day 3.
I am only telling you how it worked for me and my glycogen levels are mental anyway so maybe i am not a good example!!!! (any time i start a diet i lose heaps in the first week but when i come off of it i put that amount on immediately - it sucks but that is how it is)
However, i just wanted to say that most of us are seasoned dieters and have a pretty good idea what works for us (some people eat a huge breakfast and snack the rest of the day and so have more packs early on in the day, some people have a light or no breakfast and so having a pack early in the morning doesnt work for them) SO, think about what works for you in normal life, what your normal patterns of eating are and what is the tough time in the day - we all have one really hard time of the day in diets - and tailor the diet around that.
Lastly with regards to getting thru day three if you are at work for 12.5 hours, pace your packs and drink plenty of water (fizzy fills u up) and take some headache tablets with you and stay away from all temptation because once you get into ketosis, it is much easier to stay 100%.
Stay busy and goodluck Sunflowers. You can do it!
