Sage Twits

Wednesday, July 23, 2025

I popped open twitter this morning and was greeted by an incredibly on-point tweet.  With apologies to Mr. Maunil Patel MD for the lack of a direct link, his post said -- Signs you're becoming metabolically healthy:  You don't crash after meals, you move through the day without sugar fixes, you take stairs without panting, you're not ruled by cravings or snack breaks, you sleep deeper, wake up sharper, your energy lasts longer than your meetings.

Yeah.  I am definitely not metabolically healthy.  I do crash after meals and I don't sleep deeply or wake up sharp.  Mixed bag on the other stuff, though there are definitely times where all of them are not good.  

As mentioned yesterday, I'm frustrated by how badly I feel during stretches of detox.  I need to power through and get on routine, but I struggle with finding days where I can just not be productive because I feel like crap.  That sounds like an excuse and it is an excuse, while also being true.

Anyway, another day.  I was a little puzzled by a drop on the scale but of course I never complain.  The late junk food meal calmed things down, I slept okay and felt decent when I got up this morning.  I am pleasantly surprised that my legs aren't beat up today, while it wasn't a big walking day yesterday there was some involved.

Breakfast:  2 slices pepper jack, coffee

Still not ideal, but it's very effective at making for a comfortable morning with no thoughts of food.  Not many carbs, not many calories.

Lunch:  Bacon egg and cheese on an english muffin

Only had swiss cheese this time and I half assed the eggs.  Still tasty.

Dinner:  Dominos pep bac beef onion, parm bites

Ugh.  Way too much.

Exercise:  Nope.
