LMAO!!!! I only went VLC a couple weeks ago. I do agree, my gut flora probably has changed because up until the last several days, I haven't had wheat in a long time.
I'm not closed minded at all. I don't claim to think low carb is the only way. In fact, I have no issue with carbs. I like carbs, I like sweet potatoes, fruits etc and ate them freely before starting VLC a couple weeks ago. I'm doing this experiment because I personally want to know how I feel when fully keto adapted. I want to ignore you because I don't find your posts or those of Derpamix to be helpful or insightful right now. I posted to get support because I slipped up and I'm really not feeling well now, and it's helpful to me to have people who understand that I can talk to about it.
On the other hand, it isn't helpful to read posts about pancakes and syrup when I'm feeling this way. You both are not posting about pancakes to be helpful or supportive. You are doing it to be annoying and obnoxious. THAT is why I want to ignore you both.
I think a lot of people have psychosomatic responses to things for exactly the way you expected to react. They really want something bad to happen just so they can feel like they've discovered something secret that will solve all of their problems that the rest of the world just hasn't figured out.
tell me if you feel this pain
Nah, they are insearchofhealth from reasonable sources w/o the conspiracy theories. Mark Sisson is such a source.
I don't know if it's the devil, but it's pretty useless stuff. I knew that even before primal. The best measure for me is nutrients per calorie - and bread, cereal, and most legumes are pretty big losers using that measure.
I used to like french toast, especially using day old Italian or sourdough bread. But starting the day off with syrup - bleeh. I'd just as soon eat a candy bar for breakfast - another thing I didn't do even before primal. I used to put salt and pepper on my french toast.
As to the grain lovers that feel it's necessary to post here, well I guess their community is boring, so they troll here to get a rise. I really don't care if you shove loaves of bread up your collective asses. Use big baguettes; it'll probably be the best use of a bread stuff you've ever done.
And if done gently greatly improve your mood....
Lmao!!!
