YEAHH Crystal Light!
I'm so pleased to have something even moderately sweet in my mouth!!
I get ridiculed sooooooooooo much for low carbing. I feel like I have to defend myself to everyone!! Everyone hates when I do it, seriously, I dont even tell my friends or even want to have dinner out with them for fear they'll have some rude comment to make. Thats why I crave this site sometimes, knowing that there are other low carbers out there make all the difference! I am so blinded by what others say that sometimes I too question the health benefits of this diet.
I go through waves of energy and complete exhaustion. Walking home from class today, in the heat, and uphill, I felt like I was just running on low. I also get light headed from time to time if I do something too fast. I know I could prolly eat more carbs than I am, I just stick to the basics though. (I dislike so many of the veggies that are allowed that my diet usually consists of eggs, meat and cheese that have close to 0 carbs) uke:
I'm tempted to go buy a loaf of wheat bread and allow myself one piece w/real butter when I am feeling low, only one or even 1/2 a slice a day. I've cut out so many carbs already I cant imagine one slice of wheat bread would hurt, especially if I am walking and working out. Maybe I'm just trying to justify my actions. ------->
I'm off to the gym, hope to talk soon!
