Fat Fast
I thought of doing that too, but before I did I tried keeping track of everything I ate at http://www.nat.uiuc.edu/ (it's free) and found out where I was going wrong. If you're not familiar w/it, it's basically like having your own free nutricounter. You can do myNAT, where you enter all the foods you eat each day, and it gives you a total nutritional breakdown, and keeps a running total for you, even calculating hidden carbs. For example, I had no idea there were some in LETTUCE. Crazy. You can even track your entire day's activity and caloric expenditure (even on some slightly strange activities). You might try it. I found those hidden carbs were what was hurting me. On a day where I thought (and I'm pretty a/r about keeping track and calculating) I was doing, say, 16.7 carbs, the myNAT analysis said I was actually at 27.4, which, if I did that on a daily basis, would explain some things. Anyway, I hope it helps you, because I know how frustrating that is.
