Over the last few years, I have cut waaaay back on carbs and sweets, but yesterday made it clear just how much I've gotten off them. Went to lunch with my son and we split a thin crust pizza. Even with the thin crust, I did a fair amount of scraping the toppings off and leaving the crust. But I look at it as just some carb loading for my afternoon run.
Then we go to our usual haunt for dinner and one of their specials is ziti. Yum, sounds good, so I get it, and it was pretty good, but boy did it sit like a gut bomb the rest of the evening.
Lesson learned: the weaning off the carbs has been a good thing, and don't venture too far back onto the carbs other than the usual pre-race carb loading. And even the pre-race carb loading has become discomforting mentally, in that I'm having to tell myself that for a few days it is OK to be eating them.
No real point to this other than to hope that someone else benefits from it. Thanks for reading.
