    Even with 5 days of super low/no carbs? Seems like you would rid yourself of that pretty quick in the following day or so.

    well if u think about it considering the other 5 days ill be eatn veggies only and possibly enter ketosis i will only be consuming 1600g starchy carbs for the week. that averages out to 228g carbs per day over a 7day week. bear in mind i am currently running UD2.0 amd have a 30hr high carb refeed of 1300g carbs startn tonite and ending tomorrow nite. ive gotten to 7.8%bf with this diet. do u think maybe the 1300g carb refeed is whats holding me at 7.8% and not allowing me to drop further? Lyle MacDonald (the author of the diet as u prob know) suggests the body is primed for glycogen supercompensation due to the 50%maintenance cals deficit i run the first 4 days of the diet. i figured similar circumstance would apply for this style diet as well??

    im not arguing with u just explaining my rationale
