Well I need to swallow my inner Varna and join in with all this cooking stuff,
had some shitty blood test and need a lifestyle change. Apparently im pre diabetic, close to kidney disease, cardio vascular disease and going bold…cunts.
So what’s on the menu ?
no sugars, starch, minimum dairy and no more head and shoulders.
take away menus on the fire to be replaced by some keto fucking diet bollocks.
getting old stinks…and that reminds me I don’t like cabbage either.
Been sucking chewing gum just to get a sugar rush…I’m ready for the mono-slipper and to be wet wipe cleansed.
i need one of those spiritual one posters to show me the pathway…
I'm no expert but I go with an 80% DES diet. DON'T EAT SHIT.
I wouldn't cut anything out completely. If you can't enjoy food what's the point.
Few pointers
Write down the foods you like, figure out why they are bad and adjust. Chips for example.
Shite - The ones in a box from Tesco for the oven are fried, caked in salt n fuck knows what else.
Good - Buy a bag of Mari Piper's, slice to your ideal chip size. Sprinkle salt pepper n a bit of oil. Oven for half hour and you have 'healthy' chips.
If it comes in a box with a plastic wrapper and goes in a microwave it's of suspect health benefit.
Sauces are usually full of shit so reduce use or find alternatives.
Things I've bought to help me
Nutribullet or alternative. Bit of protein powder and loads frozen fruit and u can make some tasty shakes. Add honey etc. Good sugar.
My absolute biggest game changer... BBQing. I love to BBQ.
Great things
- BBQING is manly as fuck!!!!!!
- Don't need oil or very little
- chicken is best over fire and good protein
- Buy a rotisserie attachment and a basket and you can just setup and fuck off watch TV if u can't be arsed going full man mode. Or go for a walk since this is about health
- you will make a new friend..... The butcher
Finally. Don't completely cut out crap. The 20%. Just give yourself days you have it.
Finally finally. Scoop of ice cream with fresh berries. Good and bad.
The key is. If it feels like a diet it won't work. It needs to be a lifestyle.
Good luck.
