Food for thought.



So my diet it kind of fucked up at the moment. On one hand I want to start going back to the gym. I would love a bigger body and hell, maybe even a six pack. I still have my YMCA membership that I am going to use tonight. They say a body builder is made in the kitchen not in the gym. I guess that’s true. I also have my brother telling my that the only way to shed the pounds quickly (without busting your ass for years to get the last 10 lbs) is to cut out carbs.

The only other weightless expert in my life is someone who sounds kind of preachy then eats a little bit of shit themselves. I have no problems with cutting out carbs. Well, that’s not totally true. I have read the benefits about cutting out all carbs and making my body hypoglycemic. I can do this. The only problem with it that I have is that I love potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, corn, etc. I have cut out most sugars. Sure I cheat and eat crap every once in a while. But really, are potatoes that bad? Is rice that bad? I would think that probably not. Yet if you look at when carbs are used it’s usually for cheap energy or hell, even filler. I mean take a look at a standard breakfast that you would go out for on a Sunday with your parents. Eggs, bacon, toast, hash browns. They give you lots of hash browns and more toast then eggs. Look at sushi, most of it is just sushi rice.

I love beer. Beer is my easy drinking drunk or relaxing time. I really don’t like hard liquor unless I’m shooting it to get drunk. I don’t want to give it up and drink vodka. Eewwww, I’m no Russian.

For now I’ll just keep everything to a minimum. I will try, but hell if I eat a potato who gives a shit.

  1. Adam and I are getting fat because all I do is make the food you see on eatwithandrea.com if that makes you feel any better.

    Also, it's about a balanced diet. Don't cut out carbs, that's your energy. That, and carbs are just so delicious. Just don't eat as much.
