Carb Cycling

Has anyone tried carb cycling to confuse your metabolism? Basically, maintain your diet's calorie and protein intake but alternate carbs and fat. I'm trying to determine the correct schedule of carbs and fat....what days and how many of each.

    If carb cycling makes it easier for you to stick to a calorie deficit, by all means do that. But you don't need to 'confuse' your body to lose weight.
