Falling off the wagon and feeling terrible

Failing my way to success... I guess...

So I totally fell of the wagon.

I started eating sugar and carbs again. Some junk food too (yay 4th of July!).

But that's not why I feel bad.

Falling off the wagon is something I'm used to. I just get back up when I've had my fill of eating junk.

What I meant by "feeling terrible" is literal.

I feel like 💩

The sugar and the carbs. The junk food and all that jazz.

Skin problems, low energy, brain fog, never-ending cravings — they're all back.

Yuck Yuck Yuck! Yep, I feel yucky.

And this is the worst it's ever been because I was on the best diet before I relapsed: Carnivore.

On Carnivore I felt satiated and strong. Zero cravings, zero brain fog, and super energy.

Today I started eating right again.

I had three eggs and a good slab of strip steak (both cooked in tallow) for breakfast. And I feel awesome. Satiated but not uncomfortably full.

They say experience is the best teacher, but sometimes I wish I just did the right thing from the get-go.

Here's to failing and trying again and again and again!
