Q on Slin

[lwgy]

im on week 3 of HGH depot (18mg kit), test prop 150mg eod, and im about to start slin (Humalog) in a couple of days. It will be postworkout only for 3 weeks:
day 1: 4IU
day 2: 6 IU
day 3: 8 IU
day 4: 10 IU
day 5: 10 IU etc

I going to follow the 1 IU = 10 carb rule. First meal will be immediately after injection, second meal will be 1 hour later.

i have two questions.

1. during the first meal, should my carbs be high GI carbs or low GI carbs? and which type is usually found in protein powder?

2. during the second meal, should i still be following the 1 IU = 10 carbs, or does that just apply for the first meal? every article that i read said basically to eat something like chicken and rice but never gave specifics on how much rice i should be eating.

Ur not downing a high protien, carb shake immediatly after ur slin shot?

i will be taking a high protein shake after the injection. what im not sure about is if my shake should be:

(a) a high protein/high carb shake.....or

(b) a high protein shake with a glass of OJ or some other form of high carbs (couple of slices of bread with honey).

my concern about the first meal is basically on the form of the carbs i should be taking. High or low GI.

take a protien, maltodextrin/dextrose shake imm after,or you can use nlarge or something.I take 50 g protien, 35g of each.dextrose, maltodex. On my whole food meal 1 hour after,i eat 10 oz chicken,turkey, or lean beef, veg,and a cup of rice!

High GI carbs for your first meal. And whatever you want for your second...I like to mix it up....some high GI and some carbs in the form of something slower releasing like brown rice or wheat bread or something. Sometimes I just have a high proteing/high carb shake for both meals.

do you guys just mix the dextrose in with your whey shake?

I never did......I just took a calorie shake (high prot./carbs) theres enough sugar in one of those. Makes it fool proof......

I usually just have an N Large shake immediately following my slin shot. Second meal is usually something like a chicken breast and rice or something along those lines.
