How Many Carbs Do You Consume?

<30 Mon-Sat
Two million on Sunday

Currently:

150 off days (x2…may drop one if I bike a lot that day)
250 upper body days (chest/shoulders, back, bi/tri)
350 lower body days (quad, hammies)

Weight is going back up after stagnating. I think it’s good to switch diets in the same way you switch workout programs. I had ok gains on a lower carb approach then leveled off. After this cycle I’ll probably go on a true low carb phase (two licks of a dried prune).

145 in September, 165 today, same body fat.

What do you people eat on those low days? And how many calories would you say?

250ish on training days, 50ish on non training days.

1g/lb of body weight on lifting days
.5g/lb BW non lifting days.

Cardio = non lifting

Started this two days ago-

400-ish on training days

Between 100-150 on off days.

Lifting four days a week, and everything else stays the same as far as macros. I’ll report back in a few weeks.

what i do is i (currently, while dieting) have a system of interchangeable protein and fat sources that have the same amounts of P and F that i can pair together depending on what i feel like eating. So i pick from the list, and eat the right amount of each and it comes out to the same grams of P and F per day. I’m currently eating 1800 calories (BWx10), about 50% P, 50% F.
my choices consist of ground turkey, chicken, tuna, salmon, eggs, and whey/casein powder for protein sources, and nuts, sunflower seeds, cheese, peanut butter, olive oil, and fish oil for my fat sources.

Around 15-30g on non training days and 200g on training days.

under 20…

I get about 75g a day. About 25-30 of those are non impact carbs from fiberous veggies. The rest I get in my post workout shake. I can’t handle carbs. Carbs put fat on me in no time flat.

I am getting about 450g a day. I love being carb tolerant. I hate being thin though. I’am working on it.

Always less than 100g. I have days where I go under 20g. My general goal is 70g or less, but I know I go a little over sometimes. Mostly from fruit and veggies, but I have the occasional treat at breakfast or lunch. Mainly becuase have been blessed with the angel that is type II diabetes. This depsite being 191 lb-ish and 13% body fat @ 5’10", with no family history of the disease? Go figure.

Speaking of which, I have 2 un-opened canisters of chocolate Surge if anyone is interested, completely useless to me now and I don’t see Biotest letting me return it. Interesting to see how little heavy lifting effects my glucose levels.

550 a day still transitioning to a bulk, been as high as 620, but I was gaining too quickly

non-training days: 50-100 grams (all from fruits and non-starchy vegetables)

training days: approx 150 grams (beans before and after workouts, the rest from fruits and non-starchy vegetables)

200-500g

No refined sugar, no cereal grains, most legumes and spuds are out. All from roots, fruits and veggies.

I used to do the AD but in the end i just couldnt make it…I got sick for the first time after 2 years(it seems that my vit c consumption was super low) and i said the heck with eat,i will eat balanced until i live on my own.So i think that i eat anywhere from 50-200 carbs everyday,more on lifting days since i eat postworkout fruits and grains but i am thinking of eliminating grains and keeping fruits.I still remember the look of my mother after i ate 12 oranges in one sitting…

it depends
