Feeling the Hunger
I’m feeling the hunger these last couple of days. I’ve caught myself in total "neandrathal" mode recently. You know … when your so hungry you lick every plate, spatula, pan, fork, spoon, knife and finger so completly clean there is no need to wash it. I go into a frenzy and end up sneaking a bite of sea salt to force myself to drink a liter of water. Then im satiated … the agony is over … for an hour or so.
This is just part of the process. When I get to this point I know Im doing something right. Its supposed to be hard, thats how you know its working. As long as I can pound the weights like an animal each and every day … I know that the suffering on the diet has not gone overboard and Im riding my "sweet spot". If the workouts suffer … do i back off the weights? NO. I add in 20 grams of fat pre-workout and see if that fixes the problem.
Im totally addicted to this lifestyle … its tough … tough as shit … but damn its worth it.
