The time span will be about 6 hours, and you will have realized your mood will have pretty much stayed stabilized for those 6 hours. No food cravings and no mood swings.
I am not talking about low GI sources or FDA reccomended intakes, I am talking about high protein and moderate fat meals with plenty of fiber.
Seriously, do the experiment. You will be in for a big surprise.
There's virtually no carbs in that meal. Of course I'm not going to crash - I have no blood sugar in the first place.
You can't sustain on a low carb diet like that very long and its not healthy while bodybuilding at all either.
By the way I still get hungry 2-3 hours later as 7-8 eggs and vegetables (soybeans) is one of my favorite meals of the day.
To deplete your glycogen stores, you pretty much have to be training everyday, doing a shitload of volume, and restricting yourself to a cetogenic diet.
This is exactly what I do actually. I get the best muscle growth under those conditions combined with a steady supply of small meals high in protein and low in carbs.
