Active Low-Carber Forums - View Single Post - Fear of feeling “satiated” after 1 hr. of eating, good and bad emotion!

Is going to be hard to explain this, specially since English is not my first language so cope with me…

In my past 3 years where I was eating RawVegan Food I did few long Water/juice fasts two of them very long (70 days each), I develop after the fasts a lot of fear, fear since I had a lot of problems putting my intestines to work after them, (long story).. but the point of this is “my fear”. Some of the symptoms while doing the fast (they used to tell me they where detox symptoms) felt so different that anything I new before, so after coming out of the fast and develop major physical side effects I was stock with those “emotions” as very BAD signs, so…

Now that I am on Atkins (a year after all this mess), I am so happy I feel full on this diet, and that I can eat a lot of different foods coming from all source of animals, (new for me). But I have experience this “sensation-emotion” that I am “worry about”. When I eat, after like an hour, all my food is well digested and with not bloated, or any other problem, in fact just a perfect digestion. But I do experience this flavor on my mouth of the “coconut oil” I fry my fatty-delicious-red-meat” witch you could say it’s a wonderful things, but it isn’t because at the same time..

(Here it comes….) there is this quiet moment like I can feel my blood being just stable, (if I fantasy on how to explain that to you, of course), this feeling of being “stable” “like a quiet moment in my body” “just feels so different”, instead of feeling good about it, I worry, I wonder if is “low blood sugar” ( I don’t experience weakness, and they check my blood pressure and I am ok, so I decided it was just my “old fears” reacting towards a new experience), but at the same time I am here searching for some help from you. somehow this period scares me, feels so different than anything I have experience, but then after 1/2 hr, it goes away, that is why I think there is a connection with “the exact time my body might be using in “ketosis way”, the fat from my body as energy to digest my food” You can say I am totally nuts…lol.

I was wondering if you can share with me in your best possible way how you actually feel after a meal, how your body feels different as when you weren’t on Atkins. How “in your body” you feel now that you don’t have Cravings, or Ups and downs, or just elaborate if you did felt a different reaction on your body that got your attention…

I can't believed that a good feeling can be triggering me old emotions.. thanks..
