I was reading in an Atkins support group thread and they were talking about carb up days. What is it and does it help when you reach a plateau or something?

    Carb up just means youre going to eat morr carbohydrates... Since aktin diet is based on eatin more protein and reducing carbohydrate. I dont kno if you would lose more weight through it

    It's about putting carbohydrates in your intake for a meal or day in order to gain a lot of energy. For people depriving themselves of carbs, eating them is a massive energy gain most of the time. Usually doing it before an intense workout or long run. Not something that is done often. I'm on a keto diet, and I do it once a month typically.
