Any of you guys not feeling well in the past week or two?

Not to get too deep into this, buttttt.....What you're eating will certainly coincide with the way you ultimately feel. I eat VERY little carbs and have been taking in about a 98% animal based diet for the last 18months or so. Meats, eggs, heavy cream, certain cheeses, etc.... Heavy on fats/protein. Even if I go rarely outside the norm, the food I'll eat is very minimally manipulated (i.e. - 2-3 ingredients vs a full paragraph of ones we cant pronounce).

Of coarse, during the holidays, most families cook or have get togethers. This year for me it was no exception. Much of those pastas, breads desserts, etc. are loaded with carbs. I have pretty much had a carb hangover for the the last few days (since my mom loves loading us up with leftovers). As much as I love the holiday feast, I truly despise what it makes me feel like...but I was not brought up to waste food.

The leftovers are finally gone from the Christmas dinner and I'll be going back to my normal diet today. Without a doubt, I DO NOT feel anything like this any other time during the year. Light headaches, bloating, lethargy, focus seems a bit off and so on. The last few mornings I've felt like I had a mild hangover and I didn't have a drop of alcohol.

I don't feel our bodies are designed to process such high amount of carbs nor are they made to be stuffed multiple times a day to the point of un-comfort. Maybe this would apply to how you feel. Did you have a couple very large meals through family get togethers? I don't think it's a coincidence how you feel if you've devoured some serious carbs.

There's plenty of info on the webs about it if you're interested. Shoot me a PM if ya need recommendations on whom to look out for if you're interested in learning more.
