the whole point to a high carb day is to shock the body so eat as many times as it takes to get the carbs in smaller carb meals but more of them is better than larger portions.....

as for fats do not worry about this or protein mate, you are over complicating things mate....

you control all your meals and amounts through the week then on say a saturday eat and then eat some more...

for example a common breakfast for me when dieting for my show on refeed days was 6 pancakes with syrup/2 bananas/scrambled eggs...get the idea

mmmmmm pancakes. right Pscarbs im with you on this i know i might be over complicating things i just want to get it right and im learning more everyday thanks to guys like you.

i will keep a little bit of structure to my refeed day but not much

thanks Pscarbs, i think im getting there just need to sort out my peds now lol

cheers again stu

Pscarb

the way i structure my re-feed days is that i eat 8 meals 6 of these meals are clean bulk meals for example instead of 200g of spuds and 150g chicken i would have 400g of spuds and the chicken then i would put sauce or mayo on the side, then 2 of the meals are cheat meals...along with this if i want some chocolate in between meals then i will have it, i never really count calories or carbs on this day although i do roughly know what i am eating.
it is all about shocking the body into stimulating the metabolism....

i understand now i will sort of work out what im eating but wont be as strict as the other days and i'll enjoy my refeed day. thanks alot pscarbs you have been a massive help to me. would you be able to advise on the peds?

As Paul said just eat man! thats why its called a refeed day. Your thinking about it too much, yesterday i had my refeed and just ate all day as my body needed it...dont stress about it just enjoy.

Sorry Pscarbs i have most probs done your head in with the post's and pm's i think like you guys have said i'm over complicating things.

my heads been battered with work and lads saying i wont be ready for the show and that i wont be good enough so i have been worrying and feeling a bit sh!t.

thanks for all your help so far

Try and not worry mate we all do that at some point especially when dieting. My advice to you would be just do EXACTLY what Paul says and you will not go wrong, Paul is at the top of the game and had helped people that have won top honours, so just follow what he tells you to do.
