Wrap up of today's food experiment
Well.
I am neither sick to my stomach nor reeling in sugar-soaked mania. I got a bit hungry here and there, but I think that was mostly due to delaying my meals too long.
This was the strangest outcome I could have imagined.
I thought certainly I would feel very different indeed, but just like my first encounter with meat in nearly two decades, my first high-carb encounter after nearly two years did nothing special to my body.
Just happened.
This nothingness was most unexpected. Honestly, I'd expected to be back on that blood sugar/insulin roller coaster getting rocked from here to hell and back. But no. My pancreas kept up. And here I am.
Shrug.
In the interest of not growing gall stones in my gut, I shall returned to previously scheduled programming tomorrow with a vengeance.
Just a note: I do not like carbs. I didn't think I missed them all these many months and could happily and easily pass them by.
Well today just affirmed that. At best I could say some of the food was marginal. Most of it was merely edible. Yuck. And I say again: yuck.
The only thing that makes carbs tasty is fat. And fat and carbs are a recipe for ruin.
Yuckity yuck and blech. Not worth it. Though I will consider doing occasional refeeds again in the future. Maybe. But still, the impact on dental health, potential candida and the list of health risks... high carbing just isn't worth it unless there's a fertility payoff.
We shall see.
