Any of you guys follow a particular dietary or training regimen, share it here. Tell us of your experiences on the program, what you've noticed as far as weight gain, loss, energy levels, personal bests, etc.
I recently came off an extremely low carb program. Basically I was eating meat, eggs, and dairy. My only carbs were condiments like barbecue sauce. Yes, I shed weight, several pounds in fact.
But my energy levels never recouped, I felt lethargic and tired frequently. I was nauseated for days at a time. The cravings were tough, too. I was hoping to become 'fat adapted,' as I've read a number of articles about the phenomenon, but I was unable to stay on the diet long enough to make the transition.
