[Hack&Lube]

After the unavoidable Christmas binge period, I've spent January low carb. I haven't touched any refined sugar, wheat (bread/pasta), rice, potatoes, starchy vegetables, fruit, etc. at all.

I spend the weekends grilling or slow cooking meats and eat them throughout the week. It usually consists of Chicken Breasts, Turkey Breast, Salmon, Cod/Haddock, Steak, and Pork.

Last weekend, I had a craving for ribs and slow BBQ'd two huge racks including breastbones that I got in bulk. The breastbone pieces were made into pulled pork and the ribs were made with low-carb BBQ sauce I concocted (based on reduced diet coke).

Vegetables consist of romaine, spring mix, super greens, snap peas, broccoli, cauliflower. Breakfast is eggs and bacon. Snacks are cheese.

I have not really noticed any change in weight or appearance but I feel much better than I did over the entirety of 2013. Have to start working out and training for a bike race in the summer. I snuck a few slices of Apple and Grapefruit that were in the office platter today and man I instantly felt dizzy like a kid in kindergarten with sugar high (fructose frenzy? lol). My head aches and I feel like I am going to pass out after eating them.
