Poor Dex!

If I'd realized your gym log was here, I would have come by for a visit. Thanks so much for the w00t in my journal. The hooz-band thinks I'm nuts for w00ting in the office over ALC all the time.

I can't remember if you've read Protein Power, but they address a sensitivity to arachidonic acid which is found in beef and eggs which can make you feel like crap and eliminate the postitves of low carbing. This may be the reason behind your blood pressure creep and the crapulent feeling. Fatty acid balance is key to feeling great.

On the other hand, you're exercising and there are tons of ways of eating that can be healthy (please eat fat, I'm begging you) that are moderate carb or lower g.i. I think the key is finding something that will work for you for life. Otherwise it's just a diet, not a WOL.

I hope you'll stick around. I love the little dex surprises I get in my journal sometimes.

P.S. I have to go to the Tacoma tideflats with my MIL next weekend. Any suggestions for activities?
