If it’s true that gluten sets your health’s progress back by about two weeks then I must have turned back time to…
Well, hello, woolly mammoth! … Hello, stone objet d’art! … Hello, caveman! … Caveman?! – ‘See, I’m right back where I’m supposed to be! 😉
In case you didn’t get the Bugs Bunny reference.
Seriously. In my defense, I can say that I have gone way below my target weight and need to gain a bit back now. So, in one evening, let’s see… I have gone from 49 kilos to, er, 51 kilos. Um… Hm. What can I say? Eating is one of my special talents.
Appetite for Destruction. (Internet file photo.)
Good grief.
Well, okay, when you’re hungover you can’t exactly eat a salad the next morning – or early evening – or whenever it is you wake up, no? You need about five truckloads of carbohydrates to soak up all those toxins eating away at your brain cells to even begin to utter a semi-intelligible sound.
And, FYI, I have been sticking steadfastly (maybe a little too steadfastly) to the Paleo-approved alcohol cheats. Except maybe for one negligible cocktail last night that I didn’t really want but couldn’t let go to waste. (Think about all those thirsty alcoholics rummaging through trash bins!)
Granted I’ve been cheating three times more than I should (- I have totally changed my tune about this Cheat Day. Gloryfreakinhallelujah for it!) but, trust me, keeping it down to three times a week already involves a lot of control.
It’s good thing that whoever designed this Paleo Challenge was thinking in terms of beer and we only lose one point for every bottle consumed. So far, I don’t think I’ve gone through a bottle of vodka on my own in one evening just yet so I think I’ve been overly generous in subtracting one whole point for – what? – half a bottle?
Pfft! How the hell did I get myself roped into this Paleo Challenge anyway??? It’s all Miggy’s fault. I was doing so well on my own…
(To Nickey and Herb: I’msorryI’msorryI’msorryI’msorryI’msorryI’msorryI’msorryI’msorry!!! I promise to do the WOD later this afternoon but I just need to go back to sleep for a bit after this.)
Sigh… What more can I say?
I’m a true nature child.
