it's individual and mostly based on your hormonal response to those carbs.

I don't bloat at all no matter how many carbs I eat.

carbs wont bloat you

high sodium / high processed food will bloat you
so it’s not carbs that lead to facial bloating since the water from carbs is stored in muscle instead of fat?

only sodium causes and processed stuff (high sodium) cause bloating? so i can eat lots of potatoes and banana and not bloat?

It’s because you work out strenuously

yes except sugar

bloating comes from an inflammatory response
thats why alcohol and shit food will bloat

You won't bloat from carbs

I recently started a cut cut therefore had to double my carb intake from 200g to 350g so that my muscles look full throughout the cut

Not only have I lost weight with this approach but my face also looks leaner since I don't add sodium to any meals

The key thing is being in a deficit

so it’s never the carbs that cause bloating only the sodium that causes bloat?
what carbs sources your recommend? like just potatoes and fruit good?
i’ve put myself in a slight 100-200 cal deficit for my recomp, lifts going up. so hopefully build muscle and losing fat at same time. and me introducing some carbs, maybe like 40g should allow me to have more energy before lifts. or would you recommend even more than 40g. i’m doing 2200 cals.

@appealmaxed I didn't want to say anything earlier when I saw your post about eating high protein and fats!!

I was thinking "wtf is this boy doing" :forcedsmile:

But you're new so I didn't wanna overload you with fitness info

My approach on a cut is to have the absolute minimum amount of fats required (30g-50g) along with the absolute minimum amount of protein required (0.8g per pound of body weight), then fill the rest of my calories with carbs

Then I calculate to ensure I'm in the slightest caloric deficit

This will ensure your muscles stay full throughout your cut

It will also make you gain muscle throughout your cut (depending on your body fat percentage)

also shall i just not use salt and stop eating bacon which is pretty high in sodium?

the only reason i decided to do low carb was cos i thought it would cause facial bloating? and i always see scale go up when i have eaten carbs since obviously water storied in muscle, but was obsessed with low number in scale, and usually the carbs were processed so came with a tonne of sodium causing the face bloat.
now im gymmax if u say its the sodium only causing facial bloat not carbs ill increase carbs. ill keep protein high but decrease fat and increase carbs.

i’m in uni so cost is a problem. u just recommend like bananas and potatoes as carbs? i dont mind eating the same daily.


ill lower fats to 40g then, have 1g per pound of bw or maybe 1.2g then rest carbs .
these macros ok?

1. "Healthy is expensive" is a meme. For carbs, I eat oat for lunch and rice in the evening. Oat costs me 90p for 1kg and rice costs me £1.25 for 1kg. Chicken breast costs £6.49 for 1kg. Healthy eating is significantly cheaper than goyslop.

2. Carb recommendations: I eat oat + raisins and rice every day like an autist. The milk in the oat will prevent your blood sugar from spiking and the chicken/beef with the rice will also prevent this.

3. Bloat: Yes, the bloat is from sodium and not carbs. Carbs fill up muscles and not fat. You only bloat from carbs when you "spillover", which only happens in a caloric surplus. So you can be rest assured you will not bloat from carbs on a deficit.

4. Bacon: You can't afford to eat bacon or any fatty food for that matter. Your oat, milk and even lean beef already has enough fats for the day to keep you in the necessary 30g-50g range. None of your meals should ever have any fats (except for the traces of fats you'll find in the aforementioned)

5. Carb Amount: Your carb amount = ( [2,200 calories] - [0.8 x 4 x your body weight in pounds] - [270] ) / 4

The 270 in the above calculation assumes that you're having 30g of fats daily (30 * 9)

The 2,200 is the caloric target you mentioned. Feel free to adjust this based on how much fat you notice you're loosing at this level.

This should give you about 340g of carbs to fuel your workout assuming you're 175 pounds

shall i consume only carbs before a workout?
or some orteun in there kike eggs also. was thinking oats and some eggs on side.
i'll get some potatoes rice and oats.

why not. i eat beef a lost. shall i get 5% fat then? i’m currently getting theb20% fat

Yes. I eat about 150g carbs roughly 2hrs before workout so that my glycogen is full. Throw in some protein/fats to prevent blood sugar spikes

why not. i eat beef a lost. shall i get 5% fat then? i’m currently getting theb20% fat
bc if you're eating eggs and fatty beef then you'll end up having like 75g of fats instead of like 30g. That additional 45g of fats will take 180g of carbs away from your daily allocation since fats = 9g of cals and carbs = 4g

Reduce fats slightly to increase carbs to 350g

got it thanks.
i’ll get 5% beef instead.
oats, potatoes and bananas.
i do train close to waking up tho cos the gym gets way too busy to even do anything after like 9am. gotta get in there like 7.30 to get a proper workout otherwise i’ll be waiting the whole time. so not enough time to eat 2 hr before. it’s eat and straight to gym i think.

@PROMETHEUS i have some 0 cal syrups like maple syrup and stuff. are they ok? to have with oats or something.

maple syrup with 0 cals. no carbs no protein no fat. just taste
sounds like goysloy to me

I would have it thought if it allows you to be consistent with your cut... assuming it doesn't have any bloating compounds
 
and what do highly processed foods have? a lot of carbs :cautious:
brain dead

u wont get bloated eating high quality source of carbs

ofc u get bloated eating trash food with lots of carbs

and carbs.

carbs do cause ur face to get visibly bigger im talking from experience. stop before i spank your butt boy
too high sodium diet according to everyone here. don’t eat refined farbs. pretty sure carb water is stored in muscle so makes muscle larger, not in fat

Just pop 100mg of furosemide whenever you want to debloat instead of this nonsense. Fuck low carb low sodium etc, will screw up your hormones in the long run. Believe me I tried it and it fucked me up.
carbs are stored as glycogen in muscle tissue so unless it’s your facial muscles that are the problem, you have nothing to worry about. Although high carb foods are often full of sodium too so be mindful about that
 
@PROMETHEUS does it seem ok? no bloat?
Likely has hidden salts

The nutritional label lists the “salts” amount whereas ingredients list separates “salts” from “sodiums”

It’s a common Jewish trick used on goyslop

I guess pay attention to your face the day after you consume it

Also get some frozen spinach next time you go shopping

I usually have like 5 cubes daily. Its very high in potassium to counteract the sodium

@PROMETHEUS may be a rtarded question and most definitely not healthy, but has low salt and fuckin love the taste jfl and is carbs. in terms of bloat is it fine since carbs and low sodium?

56.3g of the 57.5g of the carbs = SUGAR

You’re practically eating flavoured sugar cubes at this point

Due to being abused dog, I can’t eat stuff like sugar & processed foods otherwise depression kicks with within a few days

If you have better mental health then go for it as long as it fits your macros

does this only matter in terms of health? nothing else?

decided to wake up slightly earlier to allow pre workout meal to digest .

It’s fine as long as it fits your macros and doesn’t rot your brain

No need to wake early. It’s actually better to load the carbs before bed since 2hrs is likely too short for all the carbs to be fully converted to glycogen

Used to have the best morning workouts when I ate carbs before bed

does that count towards todays or next days calories? like i’d eat them at maybe 11pm sleep then get up at 7.30 gym at 8

Oh yh I forgot to mention… Those goyslop you posted above will fuck up your diet

2,2000 of healthy stuff like oats and chicken breast will fill you up throughout the day

Whereas 2,200 of goyslop can be consumed in one sitting, leaving you wondering where the rest it

Along with mental health, hunger is another reason not to eat goyslop
