I’ve been trying something a little new where for 12 days you pretty much eat no carbs having 60% of your calories from Fat, 30% from protein and 10% from carbs, so since a gram of carbs and protein=4 calories, and a gram of fat=9 for me to get 2000 calories a day that is: 133grams of fat, 150grams of protein and 50grams of Carbs. Then after the 12 days you have two carb load days were you eat 50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein. After the initial period 5 days a week you eat low carb, 2 days a week you carb load.
So while on this plan, this is what I would eat in a typical day:

So for those of you complaining how hard it is to get good fat in their diet, I just fit 156grams in one day ( I weigh 130lbs). People also tend to claim that if they dont eat carbs they wont have energy, but after upping my fat content and decreasing my carb content, my energy levels have been higher, i’ve been sleeping better and my recovery times have been better. For instance after eating the above mentioned I did the following workout at 7pm after coaching at 6am and being up for 14 hours:
2 sets of 15kg snatch *3
1 set of 35kg snatch *3
2 sets of 45kg snatch *3
1 set of 50kg snatch*2
3 sets of 55kg snatch
3 sets of 45kg hang power snatch*3
2 front squats +3 split jerks @ 35kgs
2 front squats +3 split jerks @ 50kgs
2 front squats +3 split jerks @ 60kgs
3 sets of 1 front squat +2 split jerks @70kgs
7 back squats @45kgs
5 back squats@75kgs
4 back squats @ 90kgs
3 sets of 3 back squats @100kgs.
3 sets of 3 snatch pulls @65kgs
3 sets of 5 jerk grip overhead squats @ 25kgs
3 sets of 7 jumping good mornings @ 35kgs
And lastly, fat DOES NOT make you FAT!!! While dropping my carbs and increasing my fat (while increasing my average daily calories) I dropped weight not added!!!
But all that being said, everyones bodies are different, you just need to play around and find something that works for you, BUT don’t try it for one day and decide its not for you, it takes your body time to adjust. To give a new diet a fair try you need to give it at least 3 weeks. It takes your body time to flush out the crap and get used to turning fat into energy.
Any questions just ask!
