Flamingpie's Road to Recovery

[flamingpie]

Was bored so came to check the boards, figured I'd give a little update.

This past 30 days or so I've been feeling pretty great. I'm definitely at a new baseline. I haven't had any crashes or bad days. Been getting morning wood on most days, the numb pain is gone, the hourglass bend is gone, the sensitivity to cold is gone, my bowel movements have been normal and healthy, my energy levels are great and my sleep has been great too. It seems that the final hurdle is getting my libido back to normal. But there's definitely been a few crazy upswings in the past month where my libido revved up out of nowhere.

The protocol is doing its thing. One other thing I should mention is last month I stopped eating grains, and I instantly felt an improvement. I'm sure grains aren't terrible occasionally, but man I was eating them way too much. Oatmeal in the morning, oatmeal in post workout shake, white rice at dinner, oat milk in my coffee etc. I feel much better now without them and using potatoes and fruits as my backloads. Every now and then I'll backload with red lentil pasta and I've been fine.

I'm glad I caught you poppin in.......nice post!! I caught the positivity!

Yes, grains do make that much of a difference. Technically we have only been eating them as a whole species for a millisecond of time.
