It's Turkey Week!

Who's pounding the food this Thursday? Anybody cutting and passing on the gravy? I'm thinking of starving myself from now until then so I can slam about 3/4th's of the 5 gallon drum of mom's mashed potatoes and gravy

I will definitely have a feast on Thursday...I will eat white meat, no dark...I'll have some sweet potatoes, stuffing, small amount of gravy, and some green bean caserole....I will also drop about 1g of R+ in the process

I'm not a big gravy man to begin with, so no problem there. I'll pound away the meat, but will try to stay away from the sweets. ~800mg of rALA should take care of any stray unwanted carbs, and the meat will provide the protein. I'm set.

I am going to feast away. I will probably be approaching the 2g range of R-ala. Lets see, 100mg = 30 carbs, so I should be set for 600 carbs, mmm...

All meat and veggies for me no fat.

 

[JKurz1]

honestly..if you slam...and take a g of R-Ala, how much do you really think you'll gain from one day of all out feasting on whatever you want?

 

[ohashi]

That's a very, very individual thing... for example, if you eat 800 grams of fructose or something, no amount of r-ALA will help you.

I know that ALA is a glucose transporter in high dosages, but what exactly will the R - ALA do? I hope this makes since.

definitively not a good idea

Starving will make you enter in a catabolic state (you'll lose lean mass)
then eating like a pig will make you gain fat
so in the end you will lose muscle and gain fat !
