yesterday was my first cheat day on ckd.......

[rnch]

after 9 days on ckd, deceided to make fridays my one cheat day per week,

i had been looking forward to it for 9 days, lolol.

i did NOT enjoy it that much!!!! all the FF's (forbidden foods) that i had been mentally drooling over didn't appeal to me, or taste THAT good to me!!

At this point, carb up day is more difficult for me than a normal day. I know all those high carb foods will make me feel like crap. But, every other carb up day I do look forward to pizza and an egg mcmuffin of two

BodyByFinaPlix,

When your fatloss stalls on a CKD what methods do you employ to break this plateau?
Have you ever used a small midweek refeed?

Cheers

No, I either cut my calories more (I slowly lower them every week anyways while dieting) and/or increase my cardio a little. I never do an extra refeed. I always refeed heavy on the scheduled time. Besides, small refeeds reduce the anabolic effect of the larger one later in the week. This anabolic effect, is what rebuilds any muscle tissue you may have lost earlier in the week, and keeps your metabolism from slowing down.

Besides, if you fatloss stalls, you have done something wrong anyways. Fat loss should be consistant and predictable if your diet is dialed in correctly. If it isn't, you are either not burning off enough calories with your activity, not in ketosis, or your metabolism has slowed down (in which case you need a larger refeed on your carb up day).

What is the duration of your refeed?
What type of macros and calories do you try to follow, if you do follow any?
What type of carbs do you use?
