northernmusician's Journal, 10 July 2016

So. End results. 11 8 2 4 thigh, ab, pec, iliac. No fat storage change, and according to the system, there shouldn't be. Actually, with calorie intake over the last 5 days I'm still 1500 calories under maintenance.

After a 6000 calorie day with 1125 gr of carb over a 30 hour period, I have a gain of 5.6 pounds. If you consider approximately 500 gr of glycogen storage and 4 gr of water per gram of glycogen, I'd say I'm bang on for storage. The next two days are maintenance days with carbs to finish the loading at 2700 - 2800 calories so my weight may go up another pound.

What I learned.
Oats was a wrong first choice. It was too filling for first meal of the morning. I can see now why some who do this choose a full box of breakfast cereal. Trying to do this with heavy carbs at the beginning, oats, bagels... is hard to do. I felt stuffed all day.

Next time:
Get control of water and sodium intake
Plan better to reduce fat intake (170 gr was a little high)
No high sodium carb sources
Research better carb sources
Plan for more complete protein intake without resorting to BCAAs to cover the failure.

Link to my carb sources for the 30 hour refeed.

lol. Yes, they're here too. I'm not sure about improving. I'm sure about trying though. I become a grandpa this summer. My youngest son and his wife are having a child. I want to be the grandpa that everyone says 'Nah, you can't be'. Nobody's saying it yet. :(

It's the silver hair Bruce, everyone keeps asking me why I don't color my grey because I would look like I was in my mid 30s if not for the silver hair. I got carded in Fla buying booze, the lady there said lots of young folks are getting silver highlights in an attempt to buy booze before age 21 and if she see's a young looking face with silver hair she cards. I was like...seriously? Made me go out to my car to get my ID :(. My thing is, I have long hair and coloring it kills it. I would rather have the grey and have it healthy and shiny than I would have it brunette and dead. When you have silver hair everyone expects you to be a grandparent.

@Northern At this time my son is not interested in long term relationships or children. Are you getting curious about my age?
