When you try to lose weight and you pick your food at Taco Bell :-)

Hello Rowers who are in need to lose weight.

I am one of you. I have stopped my denial of reality. There is no way I can train off what I eat without killing myself.

I started the slow carb lifestyle. I purposefully use the term lifestyle and NOT diet.

I discovered how I can substitute all the lame carbs that make me hungry for more as soon as they pass through my throat...

LEGUMES LEGUMES LEGUMES!!!!! Hear me loud and clear. Lentils and all sorts of beans. Some beans create a problem and some next to none.

So back to the headline, when at Taco Bell... order a "Cantina Bowl" and substitute the rice with black beans. Yes, you will pay a little more. If you are my size, you will buy an extra side of beans, to make sure that you won't leave open space in your stomach.

By doing this you avoid rice carbs that go directly to fat storage AND you stay clear from cravings LONGER.

As a matter of fact, when you stay on the SLOW CARB diet your cravings become very tame. You almost don't know what to do with your chewing muscles anymore. For me it was weird to realize that I quasi stopped putting hand to mouth between meals anymore.

I did not invent the SLOW CARB diet nor did the author Tim Ferris in his book: 4Hour Body. My friend Camron Sabour in Canada simply said to me, Xeno you have to read the chapter of SLOW CARBS and you will lose 25 pounds the first mont. Yes that is exactly how it happened. It is unbelievable. My blood pressure is back to normal, I feel great.

And for those who say, how can you let yourself go like that when you won an Olympic gold medal... I have news for those people.... I did not win the Olympic gold medal because I live a life governed by moderation.

Woohoo, I wish you a great Thursday.... oh yes, on Saturday I eat what I want.
