Hello again Internet, this is Charles J. West. As the title of this post subtly implies, today is the first day of my low-to-no carb diet. Already I can feel the mounting foreboding and realization of the future bearing down on me; a demon of consequence saddled squarely between my shoulder-blades, riding me not unlike a mechanical bull.
How has one day without sugar made so much of an impact? Is today's food (candy not-withstanding) laden that heavily with sugar, as to induce withdrawal symptoms this early? Am I to be a sugar-holic my entire life, unable to keep sugar in my house for fear of relapse and maddening cravings? I have a feeling it's going to be a long 4 months.
In my dreams, I am the prosey-ist; it's me. Sorry for subjecting you to that, Internet, I needed something to concentrate on (lest the shakes set in) and clicking my way through an online thesaurus granted me 15 minutes of distraction. Today is busy and so I haven't really been able to give too much detail about my diet, nor to devote much time to the blog (bluh bluh getting A's is HARD DXX) but hopefully that will change in the future :)
What I can tell you is that right now I'm just focusing on avoiding sugar, more than anything. I mean of course I am, but I'm putting more effort into that one task than is prolly necessary b/c I know I'll cave much easier to sugar than I don't know a sammich or something. I read that this... introduction stage I guess, goes away after a few days so maybe then things will be different?
If you'll excuse me, I have to go make my dinner (for the sake of the entire purpose of this blog, its chop suey w/o brown sugar n stuff)
CJ West
