what is a refeed?

I have been reading the forum lately and i’ve seen Refeed a lot. I have no idea what a Refeed is, could someone please help me out?

Wasn’t he on that show, “What’s Happening?” …oh wait…that was “Rerun”.

Sorry.

Refeed, or “planned cheating”: the act of “refeeding” the body after several days of below caloric intake or a ketogenic diet (low in carbohydrates). Here’s an article that best explains this process:

Hope this helps.

When you throw something up, and then…

No, not really.

A refeed refers to eating carbs after a period of low ( or no) carb dieting. Typically, you go low-carb for 6 days a week, and then one day you get to eat all the carbs you want, more or less. Some plans allow for 2 days of refeed.

A refeed is what we call a pig out to make ourselves feel better.

Okay, I’m just kidding.

Mostly.

thanks, that helped a lot, now i’m not so lost in the refeed area:p
