doesnt sound like a high carb day to me. About 80 grams from starchy carbs and a few grapefruit halves and strawberries.....

How much you weigh?

Your high carb days sound like low carb days to me?? What is your bodyweight and bodyfat percentage? Male? Female?

Anyways, you are getting your "carbs" from fruit sources. Not a good idea for re-feed or glycogen replenishment. You NEED something of an insulin response to get glycogen shuttled into your muscular reserves. Fruit will NOT excite that response! Fruit (fructose) works in a completely different process....

You need to ditch the fruit for your high carb days and incorporate Sweet Potato, Red/White Potato, Brown Rice, Quinoa, and Oatmeal. Those are your choices. They will produce an insulin response enough to turnover glycogen in muscle cells, but not to the extent to STOP the fat burning process.

What does the rest of your diet look like??? You can't go LOW LOW carb like that for to long before you actually start storing fats instead of burning them. Tell me that you are having a few cheat meals here and there and not just your idea of "high-carb" days??
