Gotta have milk with Oreos. It’s skim because during recompensation you avoid fats.

I know it’s disgusting lol.

Fun stuff. IMHO, Tofu, Slimey Okra, and dirty tasting beets are what are really disgusting. Oh, and Chitlins.

On thing, when I eat a pack or two of Oreos and down a quart of skin milk, I make sure I have nothing planned for the next couple of hours.

Truth is guys, I haven’t done this for several years, I’m not training nearly as hard or often these days.

I don’t think there’s anything at all wrong with a macro flip once in a while, even if you don’t train hard. I’m thinking Chinese food might be an enjoyable way to do it, full of starch and lean protein.

As a food addict in Recovery, I avoid the cookie aisle at the grocery. Reading about using jelly beans for Glucose tolerance test affected me for about a day or two but wise. I didn’t act on any of it but being around visual cues and reading recipes that don’t work for me can start to awaken the disease in my brain.

I’ll be seven years food sober tomorrow, food sober living. I’ve learned how to deal. For real. It’s a thing

I might guess that the keto and low-carb groups are forming around different peoples genotype and phenotype’s. Some of us will do better using a certain food template and you’ll see us gathering in our natural habitat so to speak. I think it’s normal but we should not fight each other and we should also respect our genetic differences. All my two cents

:clap::clap::clap::clap: One day at a time!

I have several ā€œpeople of the triangleā€ as relatives and close friends. I have seen how difficult it can be. kudos for all who can stay sober for one day, and win the fight against having just one drink.
