Annoyances of Thermogenesis
Its been so long since I’ve really been on a hypocaloric diet for a cut that I forgot about a few of the annoying things that happen when doing so. The top of the list has to be tied in with the fact that I have never been one to sleep straight through the night unless I’m absolutely beat tired. Usually I’m woken because its too hot (common since I grew up in a home that didn’t have A/C). Now the problem is that the heat isn’t coming from the ambient temperature of the house, but my own body. So now I’m learning to keep a spare pillow by the bed since now when I get woken up I’m usually sweating a little bit and have a damp pillow. So I have to swap pillows, turn up the ceiling fan, and resume slumber. No big deal, just annoying. The other is that even in shorts and a T-shirt/polo at work I still get hot. Its worse doing massages since there is no circulation at all in the rooms except for maybe a small desktop fan in the corner that try as it may, still fails. Is it all worth it in the end? Heck yeah! I just don’t necessarily like feeling Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam when he said, "Its hot! Damn hot! Its so hot that today I saw a man in an orange robe just burst into flames!" Ok, well, maybe its not that bad even, but those random heat flushes do like to sneak up on me. Yay ephedra (for now…)! Next round I’ll be giving ACL’s "BRN-2 Xtreme" a go. Quite anxious to see how that one works out as I’ve heard quite a lot of good things about it.
