No, I feel good, but actually I don't know what that is because it is always relative to something else. If my optimal diet, which is supposed to make me feel great, is something different from what I eat now, then I could feel better. I'm trying to find out if that is the case, but I'm running out of options.
That's why I don't know what to do. Steve had a BIG energy increase after going vegetarian, and going vegan. I did not notice changes when I cut meat. Then I went back to meat and cut dairy and processed foods. No change in energy. So maybe I could do trials until hell freezes over.
This is what I
could do next trials on:
1. Cut both meat and dairy... unlikely to be useful if they seperately have no effect. Unless you believe: "animal product = bad", which I don't for reasons I explained above.
2. Cut wheat, without believing the theory why it's bad. But still might do it.
3. Go vegan raw. But I would have to feel like superman to accept the lack of flexibility it entails.
It could also be that it actually IS true that a pretty normal diet is my optimal diet, and that I feel my best now, and that the detox effect is just an adaptation to the new way of eating, and not necessarily toxins leaving the body. Steve explained that in yesterday's blog entry, and I did not know that when I started this thread. But I would be disappointed to find out I can't improve on my energy level through diet anymore..
I'm currently digesting two big plates of spagetti, made of wheat (maybe refined, it doesn't tell), processed factory sauce with lots of fancy additives, garlic, and off course minced cow. The point is that I don't feel different then on any other day, which is subjectively great. But who knows how much I'm deluding myself.
It also tasted real nice. Pasta has way of filling you up, and it's texture is unsurpassed.
Truth is shrouded in mystery..
