vlp1968 83 Posted January 9, 2013 Hi, I am wondering about carb cycing. Have people had success with it? I know the basics are that it increases your metabolism by alternating low, medium and higher carb days. All healthy carbs. What are the carb counts in each phase? What about calories and fat grams? How do you know when to shift from one phase to another? Any information you have would be great! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim1967 3,569 Posted January 9, 2013 Hi there, There have been a few of us on here that have tried carb cycling with some success. Thread is here: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/topic/159669-carb-cycling-an-experiment-gone-right/ I do not recommend carb cycling for newly banded folks without consulting your Doctor.

CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted January 10, 2013 Never needed it. Most don't seem too and many docs consider it a fad diet. Also many think it is great. I think it would depends on your circumstances. Lots of info in the thread posted above. 1 Sojourner reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
