I barely survived my two days of super high-fat loading - ugh! :) Loading is never fun so the high-fat wasn't really any different in that regard. But the weight results were very different! Here's how it went.....
Saturday I ate 6511 calories! Of this, 69% were fat, 17% were carbs, and 14% were protein. My percentages were off this day. I know why - because I went out and ate 2 pieces of regular pizza and then had ice cream. I woke up on Sunday to a 2.4 lb. gain. Still, not bad compared to previous loading experiences.
Sunday I ate 5185 calories, which was 80% fat, 8% carbs, and 12% protein. So I was much happier with these percentages, and I woke up today to only a .2 lb. gain! Wow!
So for the weekend I ate almost 12,000 calories and only gained 2.6 lbs. loading. I am thrilled! Previous loads I gained anywhere from 6 to 8 lbs. over 2 days.
My starting weight today for Round 3 is 209.6. I am very happy with that and with the small gain from loading. I am excited to start VLCD and start losing again!
I am going to try to get screenshots of myfitnesspal and post them so that you can see exactly what I ate, the calories, etc. and over the next few days I will post the remaining recipes. Most of the recipes for what I ate can be found in last week's post entitled "High-Fat Loading - Planning My Next Round".

Edited to add: Here is a link to the post I made of my food diary for the loading days.
