Sometimes, like Thomas Edison, we
figure out what doesn’t work before we figure out what does. The basics of fitness are simple: move more, eat less, keep breathing,
repeat. How they apply to each of
us in our individual circumstances with our own special chemistry is more
complicated.
As I mentioned a while back, I
was considering trying the Bulletproof approach to food. I had two reasons. One was that I thought it would be
something my husband could stick with, given that one of the basic premises is
that meat is a Good Thing. The
other was that I thought it might help me with my inflammation issues.
One out of two isn’t bad. It works great for Brent. He lost weight and feels good. He is ready to keep on with the
program.
Me, not so much. I lost some weight, yes, but I felt
horrible. I was tired and stupid
and irritable (yes, more than usual!!!).
So I learned something that doesn’t work for me and I can move along to
try something else.
Part of experimenting is being
willing to say that something isn’t working. That’s good.
That’s important. And
trying the next thing is just as important. Up from here!
