I wonder what accounts for the inches lost. I discount replacement with muscle, because I don't believe you can add that much muscle in such a short time without anabolic steroids. Anyone have an answer?
I am doing the CKD diet, and keep my carb grams real low Sunday evening through Saturday afternoon, then do a carb "refeed". It's a welcome break to the spartan diet I follow the rest of the time.
Monster, I suspect that you are still eating maintenance calories (at least that is the first thing I'd check). Sounds like you are still to new to be running into a Leptin problem (eating way too few calories). Also check for hidden carbs you might be ingesting (like in cheese) because it seems you should have dropped more just in water weight.
