After fasting from high glycemic foods for 24 hours it is time for...Cardio!

Science suggests that exercising at relatively lower blood sugar levels will lead your body to produce glucagon. This hormone will help mobilize stored body fat in order to raise blood sugar levels.

In short, not eating bread, sugar, or other starches for the last 24 hours have primed you to burn fat during this workout!

Cardio:

8 Minute Row
7 Minute Bike
6 Minute Ski
5 Minute Row
4 Minute Bike
3 Minute Ski
2 Minute Row
1 Minute Bike


Nutrition:

After 36 minutes of sustained effort those of you used to high carbohydrate diets will probably feel
a.) Extremely hungry for the worst types of carbs
b.) Deserving of a reward

The easiest way to avoid this pitfall is to eat the right kind of carbs! Your mission, with dinner is to have an apple or half a sweet potato. Having some carbs will give you the willpower to avoid the worst temptations, deserts cookies candy etc.
