Hi, to the mods, if my post is invalid, feel free to delete this, I cant find any diet instances sry
Yeah, processed refined carbs is really something else. I've been doing IF + lowcarb for the past 2 years and luckily, my body responded to it dropping me from 106kg to 60kg
Btw i dont have the intention to demonize carbs, its still a good source of sugar in which our brains love to utilize as energy.
Its just man....it really somewhat messes me up. I do still eat processed refined carbs but very rarely and in minimum
then one day my mom brought some chocolate brownie cupcakes. My mom handed them over to me and told her its most likely that I'll never eat it.
Then its time for my 2nd meal, At first I was reaallly hesitant to consume it because im aware that carbs has something to do with pumping up ghrelin, a hormone that has been studied to trigger hunger, and sadly... I went with "yeah why not give a try, fuck it lets have some"
The next 3 days, it really messed my hunger, It usually triggers 8-9hrs after i had a meal and now it triggers 3-4hrs after i had my last meal, Luckily I had this experience before and sorta blamed myself for doing something I find stupid.
Sry for venting out
