In January I tried quitting smoking again. I gained 20ish pounds by May and threw out my back with beautiful muscle spasms(2 herniated disks from a previous work injury). SUCKED! The next week I met my buddy and his family up at Disney and ended up picking up smoking again. Double Doh! After the injury I found myself back in the gym cutting calories again after a couple weeks I started feeling like shit. I would get all shaky and nauseous and stuff and fingers would get all tingly and at times I would feel like I was going insane. I have always been kind of a hot head but I started getting so angry for stupid little things. And it was like The Incredible Hulk anger roid rage crap, no I am not on roids and have never tried them but my old roommate was so I witnessed it firsthand. It would usually happen when i was hungry or getting hungry and then I would eat and be back to normal. It kept getting worse so I broke down and went to the doctor before my wife left me. The Dr. told me to change my diet and sent me for a fasting blood test which I have yet to take. I can not have sugar anymore and it is depressing at times because I love sweets. But on the other hand I feel better than I have in years and all my aggression I take out at the gym. Now I have a problem with the test. When I fast I feel like I am going insane again and I am not able to sleep or concentrate or anything so I always end up eating and rescheduling the test. I am scheduled to go again tomorrow and I think I have a plan. I got up kinda early and I plan on doing a huge workout today so I am so tired when it comes to bed I sleep right through the crazies. heh It sucks. Has anyone else ever dealt with this?
And to those of you who wish to quit smoking, be careful with the sweets and gaining bad weight. After almost 3 months I have cut most of the weight and back in good shape but now I may be hypoglycemic and I can't have my chocolate.
The doctor says if I keep up with my diet and exercise I will be able to eat sweets again in moderation. So that is part of my motivation. heh
And 1 more thing weed kinda contributed with the munchies. But I guess I can only blame my own fat ass. And sorry about the d-bag pic but I had to prove I am looking good again. heh
