This morning I woke up from a carb coma and feel like I have a bad hangover.
I've been watching my weight fluctuate since being back on BC, mostly it is all water weight and lack of regular BMs. Other than that I feel pretty good because I'm still sticking to the low GI foods and the supplements. But today I feel like crap because my MIL brought us a huge pan of brownies on Saturday, and I polished them off last night with a few left over bottles of beer. I could literally feel my blood sugar going through the roof afterwards, not at all a pleasant feeling. I was asleep 45 minutes later, I can only assume it was a mix of being close to my bedtime and my blood sugar crashing back down.
Not sure if this is a good or a bad thing really. Last night I obviously overindulged in something I have not eaten in months, and because I have been watching what I put into my mouth and how it affects me pretty closely, I can understand why and how I feel like ass today. Will this keep me from being tempted by those foods in the future, absolutely. But what I can't quite wrap my head around is did these foods do the same thing to me a year ago and I never noticed? 6 months ago? am I somehow losing a tolerance for them? I feel like this might be a bad thing, like I'm now so sensitive to it I am skirting the line between insulin resistant and diabetic. At the same time I feel like being more sensitive to those foods means the opposite, that my body is starting to process them correctly. ??? I can't remember, I will have to re-read some of my PCOS books when I get home. Until then, interwebs, if you have any insight, feel free to fill me in.
