i agree...you need carbs to fuel your workouts. you would probably have more success if you did a straight bulking diet first, then do a cutting diet.

BTW, how'd you type in all caps? didn't think we could do that...

Well The Reason I Decided To Go On This Diet Was Because I Heard Jay Cutler Say He Sticks To High Protein, Low Carb Diets. By The Way Just Hit Your Caps Lock Key And Your Letters Will Be Capital.

Well its not only that, i've heard about the high protein low carb diet, it supposed to allow you to gain lean muscle and burn off the fat.

it will work for you.. however there are down sides..

also

pwo should be 80g of protein and dextrose...

and when you do a protein shake/fat (flax) never add carbs there..

just keep them seperated..

p/c
p/f
p/f
pwo p/dex
p/c
p/f
p/f shake before bed..

and carbs should never be simple carbs..

that is a meal plan..

Spywizard.....so you think im in the right direction with what i'm eating? Basically i would be taking in very little carbs, i might add another protein shake in there too. I also take creatine, glutamine before my workouts aswell as vitamins everyday.
