    I've posted my ULC portion of the day previously and it's setup nearly perfect re: protein and fats.  No issues there.  Thanks to those who assisted.  Much appreciated.Stats:179lbsGoal: 190lbsObjective:  Density BulkingTarget Carbs: 409gWeights: 5x a week; HIIT 1x to 2x a weekPost Workout:  * 52g protein; 70g carbsDinner:  * 4oz of fish* 2 cups of Jasmine Rice; 89g carbs* 2 7oz white baked potatoes; 72g carbsSplurge:178g left for this area.  😀Summary:I've got a great PWO that delivers 70g of high glycemic carbs.  My appetite is fine.  I don't feel bloated.  About 30-60 minutes later it's dinner time!Let the carb loading begin... and there's the issue.I don't want to eat "dirty" foods from here until bed.  I get to full with all the sugars.  I'm finding it impossible to think of say, cottage cheese before bed as I'm still stuffing carbs right up till bedtime.Solution:Spilt the carb meals into dinner and splurge.  Dinner can be clean foods like Jasmine rice and white baked potatoes with butter.About an hour after dinner.. it's dessert!  (high glycemic cereal?)Ultimately I should get 409g of carbs, half of that coming from cleaner sources.  I'd be thrilled if it could all come from such sources but 4 cups of rice or 4 potatoes is beyond what I'm able to dish down.

    Its ok if english isnt your first language, but I only found one kind-of question in this whole thing!

    ” (high glycemic cereal?)”

    to which I could answer, sure, if you like. My flatmate loves a massive bowl of cornflakes with milk and dextrose as one of his PWO backloads. Personally I prefer Ice Cream.

    Grabbed the nutrition info off the box.I did the 10 day prep phase.  Lost 4.5 lbs.  That put me at 409g of carbs for my backload.So far so good!  I realize I need to adjust as necessary based upon how I feel in the gym, how I look when I wake up, etc.  But it's what the book recommended as a starting position.I am finding the frosted flakes to be all to easy to consume!  No bloat.  No feeling stuffed.  Seems to work out pretty good.I'll need to find a generic brand though and save some $$$
