Anabolic Diet
For the last year or so I’ve been eating clean: lots of fruits, veggies, lean meats, whole grains, etc.So after about a year of loosing the same 10lbs over and over again I decided it was time to try something drastic. So I’ve started the Anabolic Diet, I like it so far; but I’m only on day 5. It’s very weird to be eatting lots of fatty redmeats with butter and cheese, it’s completely different from my normal diet.
In the morning I feel great, wide awake, energetic, etc. But around 1pm I crash and become a zombie until about 5-6pm when I get energetic again…odd I know. It’s also messing up my stomach a little bit, but nothing that I can’t deal with. But for some weird reason (possibly just stressed from being carb depleted) I’m really emotional, kind of embarrassing. I literally got tears in my eyes because my fiance told me an outfit didn’t look good….it was really weird, I usually don’t care about stupid stuff like that, anyways. Only getting 30g of carbs is kinda hard because I absolutly love fruit and oatmeal and I’ve had to cut that out, but other than that I’m loving it. I’ve lost 5lbs this week, I know it’s mainly water, but I’ll take any little bit I can get right now. I really can’t wait to see abs, triceps, biceps, quads, and delts…..oh I want to see them, I know they’re there! The wedding is only a year away now…I’ve gotta look the part before I walk down that aisle.
I still have a few questions about the diet….I’ve been doing 60% fat, 35% protein, 5% carb M-F and 60% carb, 35% protein, and 5% fat Sat&Sat. I’ve been calculating my 30g of carbs with my green veggies included, I’m counting every carb, I’m not exactly sure how it’s suppose to be done. I’m not getting all of my calories in though, I’m working on it, but I’m not use to eatting this many calories in a day….sad I know.
Does anybody have any suggustions, or helpful tips I could use? Thanks for taking the time to read!
