I'm very interested in the book you were talking about. Tell me how you like the plan. I need to do something new with my diet...a big problem that i'm trying to get under control also. I've been doing good the last month ..but it's always a struggle.

Hi Vanessa:
After reading your log, I was thinking of looking into the TNT plan, too. At first glance, it looks like the first 4 weeks are pretty much very low carb with protein shake b4 and after weights, right?
In a nutshell, the NHE plan cycles: Day 1,2 low carb, Day 3 carb load last meal of the day, Day 4,5,6 low carb, Day 7 carb load last meal of the day. There's more to it, of course, but that's the gist of it. The first 10 days (like a break-in of sorts) are basically low carb, like TNT, and then you start the cycling. It's a pretty technical book, with lots of scientific info that I don't even pretend to understand completely. But, I do like the fact that there is some cycling in there to break things up a bit.
Now, I'm really not one to talk because I just came back from lunch and had egg salad on a CROISSANT! That's real good for me! LOL!
