17/12/20 &&&First expressive encounter with Els post Nicorette

 I want to be thin and fast.

First, let's get as thin as possible.  Let's aim for 55 kg.  Well, let's do a range:  55 kg to 60 kg.

Already I am reaping the benefit of being thin.  I look good in my old jackets.

Not only my tummy has gotten flatter, but my butt had also shrunk.

These are my motivations.  Just now I was tempted to eat lunch.  However, after some time in front of the mirror, I managed to ride the hunger away.

I cannot wait to wear my "military" clothes again.  I love being in uniform.  I like an orderly life.  That's why I think David Goggins's story suits me.

--------------------------------------

Either I fast or I feast.  When I fast I turn off the insulin.  Therefore if I don't eat carbs, I also stop secreting insulin.

Fasting is not bad at all.  No hunger.  No ghrelin the gremlin.  I am doing fine.  I am feeding on my body fat.

I can do what Jim Caldwell did.  I can fast as long as I can withstand hunger.

In the past, the temptation is to eat sugary stuff.  Now we know that is due to sugar addiction.  I plan to get rid of sugar addiction within 2 weeks.

Life is beautiful when you don't have to derive pleasure from sugar.

Sugar only tastes good because we are conditioned to the taste.  If we do away with the taste, sugar is actually POISON to the body.

 Therefore at 56, I am saying no to sugar and starch.  No more insulin spikes.  Better still, no more dopamine fluctuations.

I am really cleaning up my act.

I am so inspired by Jim Caldwell.  He was 59 years old when he decided to change his life.

24 years in three pictures Left, 1996, Wgt 184 Center, 2011, Wgt 336 Right, 2020, Wgt 164 Overall Summary: I lost some hair and 20 pounds.

I had been talking about it since 2012.  I was badly defeated beginning in 2006.

Now, I am coming back with a vengeance.  It's a matter of educating myself on obesity, diabetes, and cancer.  Once I have the knowledge, I can take informed action.

#traxxfm Hi sweetheart. I was looking at the homeless guy's banknotes. Very interesting. Once upon a time, I paid my barber with a USD1 million dollar fake note. He accepted it LOL. It was a crazy time, honey. Hey, when are you gonna spin my song?

#traxxfm I bet you had completely forgotten about it. It's been 2 weeks already: I don't wanna live forever - Taylor Swift, Zayn Malik

This fasting experience is really interesting.  Not so much because of the numerous benefits but rather, the hope for a better life.  Imagine, without fasting as an alternative, we are at the mercy of our hormones and neurotransmitters.

----------------------------------------

Now back to Els.  That's pretty much the kind of correspondence I am having with her.  I still listen to her though but I am no longer going head over heels for her.

She is just another chick.

#traxxfm Without the consumption of substances (Nicorette and 3-in-1 coffee included), I am as sober as hell. Now with these 19 days of OMAD, my whole system is squeaky clean. No insulin resistance, no dopamine fluctuation, and no carbs craving.

#traxxfm This book is truly amazing. I give you a spoiler alert. It is insulin and processed carbs. James Caldwell recommended it. He lost half his body weight! Hey, my request! I love you, honey. You are quite a sport.

#traxxfm Now, you probably think that I have too much time on my hand listening to you for 6 hours straight. Not true honey, I actually have to be mobile and listen to you from 3 different media. That takes commitment sweetie...

#traxxfm Now is the time of the day when I am super alert before I break my 24 hours fast at 7:30 pm. It's not really that bad once you get rid of the sugar craving. After all, I am already in a fat-burning mode. There is no more hunger.
