The sugary carbs won't make you gain fat in the short term, but may make you 'spill' water over into you subctaneous areas (smooth you out). The safest carbs are usually the ones you've been eating while dieting (unless you were on a ketogenic diet). This way there are no 'surprises' for you body to handle with a food it's not used to. Potatoes, rice, oats, bananas are coomonly used. Be sure to get some fat in too, like some fried potatoes, nuts, maybe a nice juicy steak (are you drooling yet?). Just keep your water intake under control and you should look great. 50ml of Glycerol 4-8 hours before the shoot is also a good idea. ------------------ IP: Logged |
