Carbs are better than Cocaine OR I started low-carb a week ago, had a cheat meal today and it felt AMAZING (OR How I learned to stop worrying and love the Bomb)


So I started a low-carb diet a week ago. I haven’t decided exactly, but I’m planning on doing a hybrid atkins-south beach eating lifestyle. They are very similar, and their initial phase (which I am on) are exactly the same. The main difference is that atkins gradually integrates foods with incrementally increasing carb contents. South beach gradually integrates foods with a focus on its Glymecic Index. GI basically tells you how fast foods digest and produce insulin; or their effect on blood sugar response. Carbs also, in general, raise insulin response based on the aggregate amount. However, post-induction in South Beach I could start eating whole grains right away or almond flour right away since their effect on my blood sugar would be very slight, the same effect as a protein-rich salad wih peas, beans, a lot of carrots, and a wide variety of nuts. The latter approach is what atkins would advocate in lieu of grains unil much, much later.

Anyway!

It was very hard the first few days. I ate lots of high fat foods like bacon and drank alcohol and smoked bud (but I would do that anyways). Alcohol is not allowed on induction BUT it has a zero carb content, therefore it doesn’t affect your body’s transformation into ketosis (the low-carb endgame of how your body’s metabolic system runs). I also ate a lot of low-carb icecream – or, rather, “frozen dairy-containing dessert.” After day 2 or 3 though, I was getting way better. I stayed under the very low, most restrictive recommendation of 20 carbs a day. These carbs were just very small amounts found in no-carb foods like lettuce, cucumbers, meat, cheese, and nuts.

Once I hit ketosis, it was pretty strange. My body had lots of water weight, so I looked thinner but my fat was more dense, real looking. Like the fat you see on a raw piece of meat, like I could see the outlines. But for a few days I was definitely losing real fat content. But I also felt very weak, less mentally sharp, in a weird way more energetic but lacking in ability to carry out that vigor. I couldn’t exercise until Day 3 – where I did a lot of good cardio, but was fatigued from lifting after like 10 minutes, or 2 exercises (bench press at 1 set of 115lbs, 1 @ 135 lbs, and 1 @155 lbs. Then inclined bench press: 1 set @95 lbs, 2 ses@115lbs. Then I did the shitty machines for decline press (3 sets), and the fly machine for 4-5 low-weight chetst fly sets. Then I was dead tired.

After though, I felt very weak and dizzy but not at all hungry. In fact, I’d felt better than I had all day, tired, and just plain: OK. Physically I felt fine, and mentally I was feeling proud of myself, and secure in the knowledge my body was burning fat to run itself, the fat I am currently wearing.

So, Day 7 Hits. Today.

I woke up after a 40 +hour work week, a new lifestyle change (the latest of many in my recent past), and not doing anything on Friday night except exercising on now fuel for several hours, not drinking, and smoking and watching movies.

So I woke up at noon, after a good 9+ hours of sleep. I can barely walk around. I feel so weak, so tired, so nauseous. I am consciously craving carbs. Like the first few days I had a visceral, instinctual, bestial craving for carbs. I had an intellectual craving, like I felt so shitty and I knew carbs would help so I was mad at myself but planned my cheat.

I went to Baja Fresh and got a shrimp burrito (with rice)…and ate all the chips they gave me I

It felt so good. I knew that I had to work out. The whole point I took carbs was to get energy to like move around and work out – since the weekends are the only times where I have time to really have a good weight workout. So I ate that, felt amazing. Knew I wanted to work out and had only had a cup of black tea at noon when I woke up. So at 4 I went to Starbucks and got a triple grande vanilla latte, and a blueberry scone – probably more carbs than my baja fresh.

But dude, that scone…holy shit it felt almost not tasty, it was so fucking sugary. It was like I was tasting it, really, for the very first time. I wasn’t blazed, I wasn’t carb craving since I had just eaten more carbs than the past 4 days combined. And still it felt like I was eating raw sugar…it was tasty, but at that point I was just eating it because I was eating it.

Anyway, overall, after that, like wow, it was great.

It felt AMAZING. I felt energetic, youthful, like I could fly around and solve problems.

You know what it really felt like? The stimulants I used to take, and haven’t completely forsaken, that I am prescribed for my ad/hd. And these drugs are very similar to, if not better, than cocaine. I haven’t done cocaine in almost two years and maybe five times in my life.

But it was fucking crazy!! I felt more energetic than I felt like had been in weeks or months. I went to the gym and worked out for like 4 hours. I did 30 minutes of inclined walking, 30 minutes of elliptical, and like 15 weight exercises including squats and worked out my legs, shoulders, back, biceps, and abs. I had been losing some muscle tone/mass during the last week.

Also three weeks ago today, I got myself a slipped disc. That sucked a lot, but who wants to hear about that? I got it while working out doing like 155lb squats on Saturday night at 10 pm, after having worked 50 hours in the week, had a campaign event on Friday night, and an all-day campaign event on Saturday where I was standing. Something went wrong, all my weight shifted to one foot, and I got a slippe disc. I was straight up in bed for 3 days, could barely move for several more. I didn’t stop waking up in pain from having to move to get up for 10+days – basically, since I started working out again. Anyway, in that time, I gained like 10lbs of fat, and lost 10lbs of muscle for a net gain of 20 lbs of fat --- and for a 5’10” guy, I’m pretty heavy like 240-250.

So, I worked out harder than I had in weeks, felt amazing.

And here’s a great sarging story!

It was a Saturday evening so not many chicks. About halfway through my workout I went to fill up my water bottle when a pretty hot young blonde chick in orange short shorts and a blue tee comes to the area and does bicep curls. I kinda look at her as I walk by to get water. And look on the way back. She senses me looking. I can’t tell if she is uncomfortable/intent-good, or uncomfortable/intent-bad as a reaction to me. Either way, I filled my water, stole a few lustful glances and went back away from her to my workout.

I was wearing a tight black tee and blue shorts. After the sweating and lifting, I looked pretty good, huge biceps busting out of my shirt, and just felt sexier than I had in awhile (thanks carbs!). So when I looked at her, I pretty much assumed she would be attracted to me – and if she wasn’t, I wouldn’t give her the chance to tell me so. I was looking at her with inquisitive eyes because I wanted to, not so she would like me or find me cute and approach me or whatever.

So about a half hour after that, I had to take a huge shit (thanks carbs!). I was hurrying away from the back towards the downstairs to the men’s room. As I was leaving, I saw that chick doing an ab machine. I kinda started at her again, checking out her body thinking to myself “yeah she’s hot, I’d totally fuck her, She has nice legs, I want to lift up her leg and…”

This time the way she was looking back, I knew she was interested. She was also stealing glances. Like at that point I was looking outright but not obvious, like there was a clock on the wall right behind her (but there wasn’t.) She saw me looking in her direction, and stole glances at me with doe-eyes. So I knew she was hot for my low-carb sausage.

I thought “well that’s nice, some female validation always helps me keep working out and on task” So I headed downstairs to take a shit, as I was turning into the men’s room, I look behind me – and she was there!! She immediately stopped doing her obtuse ab-crunch machine and followed me down, because she wanted me to talk to her, because she wanted me to fuck her!!

She kinda stopped/slowed down, but I was already one foot in the door, and I had to take a huge shit! Like I’m talking clog the toilet dump. So I just did what wasy easy and continued walking.

But it was a great if not very frustrating experience. I knew she followed me, btw. One, because I just know. Two, because I was walking briskly as I had to take a shit , and I passed her while she was locked down in one of those weird ab machines, and and I was turning into the men’s room she was 4 feet away from me!!!

I should stop thinking/talking about this, as its making me frustrated all over again.

Anyway, carbs were amazing. I have no craving now and is 10 hours later since my last carb. I hope my body goes back into ketosis soon.

But I kinda feel like a fog has lifted. We and me specifically are so addicted to carbs!! Alll the refined sugars in everything we eat including juice and coffee!! It was nuts, thinking back to just a few weeks ago where I would scarf down taco bell at 3 am and not think anything of it!!

Now its like I feel that humans were meant to live low-carb as our ancestors did.

Anyway, this has become a long post., but…

..A quick addendum to those interested parties who wish to know what’s become of ol’ JJ.

I recently made some much needed, REALLY NEEDED, mature steps in my life.

As I graduated college after an extra few semesters in May 2009, I hadn’t done shit and it was summer, then fall, then 2010, then…

In early spring, I finally did something. I moved to a new state, and now live by myself for the first time ever (as the times I had not liven at home in the past, I had always had roommates.)

I have a decent paying job which I like and provides me opportunity to get better at what I want to do. To be fair, I work for a family member’s company but I do Sales and Marketing, and it’s a great company that was recently featured on CNN for how its entrepreneurship is one of the lights in the dark economic scene of this major metropolitan U.S. city.

So I work at an IT healthcare company doing Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Business Strategy … my card calls me a “Sales, Marketing, and Customer Support Manager.” I sell our internal products, I come up with marketing strategies for our iphone apps, how to utilize and integrate social media, creating marketing materials and etc.

Also, the main reason I moved is that I got an internship with a congressman whose running for governor. It’s a great position and the guy I’m with is going to win. I plan on doing a good job so they hire me through the election and then give me a job in his administration. Good plan, right?

But basically, I went from not doing ANYTHING for like a year, to working 40 hour weeks, an internship in something I want to do in the future, and now seriously choosing a low-carb way of eating, or to put it another way, a re-evaluation of what’s important health-wise in my life.

Thanks carbs!
