Little 80/10/10 update

Well over a week into 80/10/10 I’m still going strong. The extra energy is still there and I’m able to keep going for longer at work before craving rest. Quite aside from the physical energy I think it’s the mental energy that I’ve noticed most - the sharpness, clarity. Perhaps that just means I was often a little low on blood sugar before (I was eating a very low fruit diet, Hippocrates-ish).

A few days ago I reported that the high fruit content of 80/10/10 was making me wee more. This actually seems to have subsided a little. Also I’ve realised I’m not getting thirsty or feeling the need to drink as much water. Interesting.

I'm not being totally 80/10/10 is the evening - perhaps a little too much fat in my evening meals - but I'm not far off it.

More 80/10/10 experimentation

Well, I'm a few further days into Doug Graham's 80/10/10. I've tried to follow it pretty much to the letter although I might have some cold pressed oil in a dressing for an evening meal or seasame seed hummous or somesuch, which theoretically may push up the fat content to beyond what Graham recommends. However, I've never been into regularly eating the big gourmet raw meals featurinf loads of oils and nuts in one sitting.

I need to dig out some good recipes for no-oil dressings.

Another way I'm struggling is simply consuming the amount of fruit prescribed. I mean it's a lot. I don't always feel like that much in one sitting. Instead, I'm spreading it out a bit with some spaced snacks of fruit, rather than single meals. I feel quite good on it. Also, although I'm enjoying reintroducing more fruit into may diets and loving things like kiwi many hybridised fruits taste positivively syruppy. I just don't have that sweet a tooth.

Energy levels are still very, very good if I get near to the sheer amounts of food suggested. Still need to wee more.

Overall, still willing to keep going with 80/10/10 follow it even more closely and see what transpires.
