So.. here's the thing with adding back 30-50 carbs a day. Weight loss pretty much stalled even though calories essentially stayed the same. While I see some muscle gains, my loss went from 2 lbs a week to zip for about a month now. The worst part though is that my hunger has increased quite a bit. I am finding myself snacking again and where before I was good with a salad and some protein for dinner now I am ravenous again and some health issues are returning as well. I am going back to the LCHF again for awhile and see if that pushes me past this. Really, thats exactly why I tried it in the first place, the high carb low fat was not taking pounds off, only maintaining. Fueling my running takes a back seat to losing this last 30 lbs.
While the debate rages about which is the 'healthier' diet I find that, for me, LCHF works for weight loss and less inflammation.
