Subject: Re: Weight Gain; Was: How Fat Are the Natives?
When I was eating higher carbs, if I took away restriction I would gain 20
to 30 pounds quickly, and continue to gain after that. It wouldn't be
binging, just eating an awful lot because I was always hungry.
I don't think removing restriction is all that great for some.
Always hungry because high carbs are yucky, not giving the body what it
really needs, and are very, very addictive! When I first started this diet,
I was completely nasty and grumpy for two whole days--withdrawal symptoms!
I have to agree with Sheryl on the removing of restrictions for Michael.
For his height and for as much as he weighs, he should be eating a lot more
each day (especially for a guy). Training your body to live on that little
amount of calories cannot be healthy. Didn't the old rule used to be 13
calories a day for every pound of body weight you want to maintain? At 226
lbs. he would have to eat almost 3000 calories a day just to maintain!!!
I am very interested in hearing more about your cross between paleo and low
carb. I have trouble staying completely paleo because I find it too limited
in variety. Could you post what you usually eat?
