Keto and Refeed
iv done my research on this and have been on this diet for 2 weeks now. and iv been told several times to wait a month to do my first refeed so i can hop back into ketosis easier after each refeed. i just read one of the stickys about leptin and refeed and stated the exact opposite. I know right now im looking for any excuse to have some beloved carbs so i would like some other opinions on my diet and if i should wait to refeed or refeed weekly. here is my stats, diet, and weekly workout ( i will be starting a aas cycle in a week when my gear gets here so ill post that also )
