Hey there! Im doing a low carb diet too, i had a question about the carb cycling. Does that mean you have to go in and out of ketosis 1x a week? for me it took about 3 days to get in ketosis, and i was exhausted and had a headache the whole time, thats been part of my motivation because i don't want to go through that again! haha does this happen with carb cycling?

I honestly haven't had any adverse feelings since starting the carb cycling. I do one day low carb and one day high carb alternating every other day. The only day i fely bad was the first reward day when i ate some bad stuff, my stomache felt like rocks but it went away. Here is the link to the classic carb cycle on chrispowell.com http://chrispowell.com/carb-cycling-the-classic-cycle/ and the portions http://1larwpdbnvqpcz84vezsi9nu.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Carb_Cycling_HighLowDays.png
