Popovich Day 8
Day 7 sucked beyond any previous day...irritated, headache, cravings. I had to pull out some old school speed metal to deal with the rage. Day 8 started rough but I think it was more my own inner jerk coming out because plans weren't working out and things were way behind schedule.
I had a cool discovery. I grabbed a handful of raw almonds during lunch and did a doubletake on how good they tasted. Common food I eat from time to time tasted more almondy on day 8. I also was content after lunch with a smaller portion size.
I had a bummer discovery today, too. A common seasoning I make (rosemary, smoked paprika, season salt) actually has sugar in it and I didn't know. It's minimal but felt more rage since I basically had my first trip up by using it on roasted potatoes last night.

Isn't it funny how hard it is to "just eat real good?" Compliments of the SAD, or "Standard American Diet..."
ReplyDeleteread a couple of articles of sugar lately, going to add those stats to my THI doc and send out! Sitting in a Starbucks drinking boring coffee and gonna do that now. Unsweetened almond milk with black coffee... man... that's the thing I miss the most, tasty coffee with chemicals in it. LOL. Good job staying true, Matt! The seasoning thing... you tried. Sugar is everywhere!
