LOL more carbs than TNT? No wonder you feel so great

MissJane, how many carbs/day is it for you on WSFL?

[missjane]

I'm not sure, Natalia because everything is laid out and there is no counting. For instance, on some days, I get 3 small servings of fruit and/or veggies. I've been having fruit, which obviously has more carbs than most veggies. BUT, I've been missing my fruit! Don't get me wrong......it's still low carb/low cal, but it's a bit of a different spin on carb cycling for me.

I am trying to follow the 130 pound meal template. It is roughly 140 grams protein; 0, 27, or 54 grams carbs [depending on the day--you can only have starch (27 grams) on the high day], and 55 grams fat. These numbers are a little off when you actually plug in food choices because many of the food choices have a few grams of other nutrients (fat in protein choices etc).

Well I just have to jump in here and praise the program. I am on day 3 and loving it. I love the fact I don't have to spend any time trying to figure out macros and what foods fit where and if I am hitting my marks. I am not in a panic anymore about what I am eating. I slowly gained back 15 pounds after losing 60 trying to keto/carb cyle/PN and it just wasn't working. I ended up getting pudgy. The training is great as well. I tried the NROLW and wasn't fond off it. So I am 100% committed to this program for the 28 days and see what happens. As for the cost of the program. It is well worth it to me. I have spend way more on other books and programs. I figure any money spent on knowledge is worth it. You can always learn something and knowledge is priceless.

If there was a "one" time fee, with guaranteed result?? I would be all over it..... The problem is there are way too many of them for a (insert descriptive here ) like me to comprehend. For a once in a lifetime offer with "guaranteed" result??? Well.. sorry but for the four or five people that have bought it here.... I need way more than that??

This is after all just one internet site in the blip of the existing world??

Don't shoot me.. I'm just a nobody asking a nobody question... I'm worthless if it helps ya?? In other words. ... I'm so down on myself there is no way you could do worse. !!

[missjane]

How in the world can any diet or workout plan GUARANTEE results for everyone? Nobody can MAKE you be compliant and nobody can babysit you to make sure you are. There are tons of other factors that will affect everyone differently. WSFL does, however, come with a 100% satisfaction warranty. So, if in 60 days, you aren't satisfied, go get your money back.

Oh, I see......

yeah, that makes sense....Lyle's advice in his dieting down books is similar

1-1.5g of protein per lb of LBM
carbs no higher than 50g (vary with activity levels daily)
fats - the rest (subtract from your dieting total cals)

I wonder why WSFL calls for 0 carbs...Are they trying to reach ketosis?

[jhardy]

The 0 carb day is only one day per week on the rest day.

I really like how the program is laid out. If you are prepared with good food choices, it is very easy to follow. I followed it for a week and a half and lost 4 pounds. Our family has been sick with colds and the stomach flu the last week so my diet has been way off track. After my tummy stops gargling, I am going to start again.

I also really like the workout plan. Intense, but you are not working out for hours each day.

No higher than 50g a day in carbs!!! I would die!

Nah, you won't. I thought so too at first. It's quite doable, especially knowing re-feed is coming soon

[kfisherx]

How often are you re-feeding right now? What constitues a re-feed? (how many carbs?) I am pretty happy right now at 150g of carbs a day and seem to be losing at that. I am down to the final 8lbs though and know that I may have to do something more drastic.

[Tree]

Just to jump in here. I'm in the middle of my second week. Down 5.5lbs so far. A friend of mine is in the middle of the 4th week, he's down 14lbs. (He got a head start on me while I was fighting a cold.) I haven't eaten a single one of the pre-planned meals, but am using the easy to follow template to stick to the recommendations. Actually the nutrition is brilliant, and makes eating a piece of cake. My buddy is very loosely following the nutritional plan, but still getting good results. I'd like to get a similar nutirtional template for maintenance, or even hypertrophy recommendations. No breaking down macro nutrients, or looking at food labels. They've already done that and you can easily calculate how much of a food makes up a serving. Then its a matter of how many servings you need to hit the requirements for each meal.

Co-workers are asking what I'm up to, and its only been 1.5 weeks. The nutrition portion is laid out so well its very easy to follow, even if you don't want to eat the meals/foods recommended. I was worried about the no carb day, but it wasn't bad at all. I'm not aware of any re-feeds until the program is done.

I'm very pleased thus far. Its a mindset though. A very specific mindset. Buckle down and get it over with. There are lots of ways to attack fat loss. In fact each of the authors has other programs designed to meet the same goal. This one is for achieving your fat loss now. A program where you decide you are going to be done in 4 weeks and meet your goals.

You certainly could choose to take a 16 week plan or longer, if thats what you want. Last summer I completed Afterburn, a great program, and lost 14 lbs over 12-14 weeks. Very effective program, but 12-14 weeks of hard dieting is a long time, its easy to stray on the weekend since you still have 9 weeks to go and figure you can make it up later. The light at the end of the tunnel is very small.

With this program from day 1 you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Its only 27,26,25 days a way. That makes it very easy to focus.

There was a backlash against the marketing, but did you check out the pre-release material. Thats where the real marketing was done. Audio interviews, research studies. You can even try out the first workout in the program and see what you think. You can still check it out at Warp Speed Fat Loss Blog.

sending you a PM

[Natalia]

Oh, and please no PMs asking for my info on re-feeds. Everyone's different and a 'cookie-cut' approach will not work here. Thanx.

[PowerManDL]

I'm totally PMing you.
