My diet
4 years ago
Recently I decided to completely stop consuming gluten, lactose and sugar. And here's what I'll tell you after a month of such a diet: this really causes some inconvenience!
For example, it is very difficult for me to find restaurants, cafes and coffee shops where I could order something. Also, there are not so many products in stores from which I can cook dishes according to my diet! And a separate shelf with products for "diabetics", where I can find sugar-free sweets, is not in all stores!
But despite all the inconveniences, I see more advantages! Both now and in the future.
1. The skin on my face has become much cleaner than a month ago! Now I can look at myself in the mirror and enjoy what I see.
2. My emotional state has improved - I'm less nervous and I'm more focused.
3. I have more energy and motivation.
Of course, it cannot be said that it is only about nutrition, since I also do bodily practices. But I sincerely believe that all of this combined - both nutrition and body-oriented therapy - has greatly influenced all of the above benefits!
Therefore, I am glad that I decided to try to stop eating some products. Because I definitely bought for much more!
Please share with me, do you eat as usual? Have you ever tried to refuse any products and why?

I’ve stopped drinking them almost completely. For over 2 years I’ve noticed I have lost weight, feel more hydrated, and sleep well.
If I drink a soda now, I get a stomachache and feel dehydrated.
Although in fact it turned out that you can find a useful replacement for absolutely all products! Did you know that there are a huge variety of sugar substitutes!
I have heard that many people are comfortable during interval fasting. But here again, you need to focus only on your feelings. For example, I know for sure that this will not suit me because I usually don't eat enough anyway! XD
Second, many years ago I realized just how heavy I was feeling, and how with my lunch every day I was feeling uncomfortably full. So, I cut my food portions in half, maybe smaller, and quit taking a 20 ounce bottle of pop with me for lunch every day. It's very hard to get out of that habit of overeating, especially when my stomach will go from feeling very hungry to feeling very full, and by that time I've already eaten too much, and later it'll go from feeling very full to feeling very hungry in a matter of minutes with no satisfied in-between. As a result it's very hard for me to lose weight, although I've kept from gaining more.
As for portions, it's really better when you eat several times a day in small portions than once, but a huge amount of food!
