I'm interested in collaborating with this project. Right of the bat I see one major flaw in the way to interpret the results:\r\n\r\nWeight alone might not be sufficient to measure the important properties of your body composition. Aside from fat, your weight is also composed of muscle and water. Weight loss in the form of pure muscle would in general not be desired from an aesthetical or health standpoint. Water is an even bigger problem: as carbs are transformed to glycogen and stored in the muscles, for every glycogen particle, 4 water particle are stored around it. Weight spikes after a carb meal are normal and don't have much to do with fat loss. Over the long term water levels stay relatively stable, so comparing high carb weeks with low carb weeks might be a way to cancel this factor out.\r\n\r\n\r\n"}}
