Grav, I just lost perspective. I was in a -very- destructive relatinonship for 3.5 years and I just let it go. I was eating LOADS of food. Everything I wanted. Everything. Bag of cookies? Sure. 2k calorie meal at a buffet? Why not!? It was the source of most of the joy in my life at that point, lol.
I'm not judging you, I did the same thing over the past year. Gained 40 or 50 pounds back that I shouldn't have due to emotional distress and being in a dysfunctional guilt-laden relationship. Now that I'm out of it, it's extremely hard to snap back into good habits.
Read this today. Seems a bit sensationalist but I certainly get twitch-eat behaviors even when I'm not hungry. If I could have it my way, all carbohydrates would be removed from the world I live in. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-1...f-science.html
I still want to hear skittle's story about accidentally doing meth.
If you really want to know....
My friend, let's call him Quincy, was off with his friends. They're all like "Let's do some speed" and he did. Little did he know it was meth. The end.
Skittles, what was your personal version of the atkins diet?
It was a while ago, so I don't remember it exactly. It was basically ALL I ate was meat/cheese for a month or two, then slowly I added a single fruit a day (max) and about a month after that a single bread produce a day (max) OR a fruit a day. Then eventually, weekly I could have an additional bread/fruit/sweet a day.
Hmmm. I've done ketosis diet before (same idea) and it really melts the fat off. But it's so extremely difficult to abide by... not to mention expensive. Blargh. Why do we live in the land of the carbs?
