[D00fy]

hahah u know it GYMRAT:/ but i wanna limit to chinese buffet to once a month,that all you can eat for 5.95 can get very addicting

and now that i know approx what my BF% is I dont know what to eat on my refeed :/

what's so bad about fructose? what does it do to you?

Also one other thing,

what are some good signs to tell when your leptin levels are low?

This is covered in my articles.

As for a week long refeed, I would only recommend that if you metabolism has completely crashed.

Doofy, eat cake, lots of cake. Mousse cake with extra chocolate, ice cream on the side, and throw in some pizza. No, not pizza, more cake. Mmm, cake.

Doofy, why do you wait a month to do refeeds now instead of every week?

par..I never refeed, i never thought i needed to because my bf% (last time tested) was realatively high. I weight 107pounds with 22% bf, im 5"6 tall.
I carb rotate and thought that refeeds were for those on keto diets only.
In your opinion is it still necessary for me to have refeeds? I guess if I do they should be every 3-4weeks?

107 pounds? You mean 207 and at 22% BF. If i'm not mistaken the lower your BF the more you may have to refeed. at 22% you're pretty high.

At 22%, if you are a female, every 10-14 would probably be good, if you are a male, 3-4 weeks sounds good.

And, of course, as you get leaner, you will need to do them more often.
