my first carb night is underway. I'm doing a carb day/evening because I don't stay up late, and I don't eat large amounts in one sitting. For me to get 6 to 8 hours of insulin spiking in, I have to start at like noon. So, game on. I stared at noonso far my CN has consisted of sushi - lotsfrozen yogurt - lotsI tried to keep meal number one low-ish in fat and high in sugar and both of those wereTHen I took a nap and woke up for some chips and salsa and hummus and carrots, finished with some nut/dried fruit mixdinner tonight will be fun since I'm not even full even though that listed alone is more than I usually eat in ONE meal on an ulc day. I eat very clean, very few carbs and low cals. I won't even eat carrots, not even one, on a ulc day and stick instead to meats, a little cheese, oils and lettuces i'm enjoying this diet. This one day will SAVE me all week and keep me on track for the next one.I'm looking into a CN every five days after a bit. I only had about ten pounds (max) that this lovely midlife deal packed upon me. I am close to the BW percent and scale reading that I want. I will eitherdo two CNs per week, for shorter times (more like carb meals than nights) or..Every five days whichever day they land on but I like that idea less. This weekend thing goes well with my work, life and social calendarRight now, it's CN and i'm in!
Good to hear you enjoyed your first carb nite, after all, it's mean to be enjoyable and good for the soul to splurge a little after a strict week – which you certainly seem to adhere to.I'm a big fan of Carb Nite for the same reasons and it fits great with my lifestyle at the moment, it's also saving me heaps on my heating bill because after a couple of hours on the carbs my body temp skyrockets ! 😀
