Metabolic confusionI was bad last night and now paying the price for it. Two orders of buffalo chicken chunks, a Reuben egg roll appetizer, and two 32 oz drafts of Great Lakes Conway. I feel like a piece of shit. Lol
You basically put poison in your body. Kristi and I definitely notice a difference in how we feel the next day even if we accidently ingest sugar or carbs. When eating chicken wings at a restaurant, we have to make sure that they are not breaded and we use sauces sparingly. We still enjoy a few low carb beers, (Mich Ultra, Yuengling Flight). I used to really enjoy Tequila but have found out that it makes my heart race. Eating clean and healthy has been fantastic for our overall health and the rabbit hole we went down regarding the American Food Industry has been extremely eye opening for both of us.Interesting unintentional experiment last week. Was on a good stretch of eating, then had stressful day and responded by eating sugar (Pop Tarts) and was so sore the next day, I might as well have ran a half marathon the day before. Also had a little more alcohol than usual and noticed how much snot/phlegm I had to deal with in the morning. Funny how quickly the body can rebuild, then retract. The older I get, the more the sugar impacts my body, so it served as a good reminder of why clean eating is worth the sacrifice!
