I am going to feel like crap today and it's a choice. I am finally feeling well enough to go back to my WOE and that means I will likely experience carb withdrawal once again. The headache, nausea, the general feeling of "unwellness" .... it's coming, I know it! I have had several days of chicken noodle soup .. with the soft, buttery noodles and small chunks of chicken and I know it did a number on my carb consumption. But it helped me to get through a period when I couldn't swallow without pain and when my body was rejecting the WOE I've adopted since October 2013. Now I will get back to eating the way that makes me feel best. The way that my body functions best. The way that I feel most whole and healthy! The cost of that is a day or two of feeling like crap. I will keep my focus by telling myself this too shall pass. I will stay busy with back to school shopping with the kids. I hope my family will be able to tolerate my crabbiness and moodiness .... and forgive me.
All this reminds me of how terrible over-consumption of carbs is for my body and allows me to recommit to the low-carb lifestyle. Yes, I did what I had to do to survive the past few days of post-op, but now that my body gets to begin healing, I can go back to what is true for me and help the process. Low-carb all the way!
