You know in the cartoons when you see a lightbulb turn on over their head, well that is what happened to me.

Carbs turns almost instantly  into sugar (glycerin)! That is why most doctors try to put you on a low carb diet and a high protein one. When you work out the body first burns all  glycerin reserves it has on hand AND THEN it burns the fat that the body has stored.

I found this out all by myself, without the help of a doctor.

Thank-you internet!

But, you probably knew this information already.

And to think, of all those times I wolfed down pasta, bread, dessert and pop; all in one sitting. I can’t believe it! No wonder it is so hard to lose weight! I was hurting myself! So now that I am equipped with this new information, it will be easier not too cheat on my new lifestyle change. And in the future, I will be more aware of the amount of carbs that I take in.

I feel free somehow. Like I have been let in on a little secret…or been hit on the head.

Before I forget, let me give the spices list

I feel after you truly get started, it gets better and better. I am not going to lie, it is a big lifestyle change, especially if you are like me-a person who likes to overindulge. Of course, there are times you want to climb a building and hope there is a large plate of Fettuccine Alfredo on top, alas, that will never happen. I always try to keep in mind that there is a rainbow at the end of my struggles. The rainbow being that I will eventually start to add back my favorites….in moderation, of course.

Yeah right!

You know how I do.

One more time….

I think I just wet myself with excitement!
