After my esophagus went nuclear (imagine your worst heartburn 24/7 for months) I finally faced facts and started really controlling what I eat. I had to go hardcore protein only for about a year. But it taught me how bad carbs were to me. Took a couple years till I could add veggies back in. The I got my e bike and it took almost a year before I could put more then basic effort into riding. I got ok then the chocolate almost milk brought me down. took over 6 months to get my muscle back after I really cut way back on carbs and experimenting. A couple months ago I finally made it to a plato where I was healthy enough my energy levels had skyrocketed. Now I know if a food bothers me I can measure how much power I lose in my riding as my bike has a power meter. It makes it easy to control what I eat.
So now I eat the basic foods every day veggies three times a week and try to only lightly eat cabs on the weekends
All the heath problems I had because of food bad lungs and I have level 2 kidney disease. Carbs would make my heart race and they destroyed my muscle.
I have had two tests that show my kidneys were having issues the Bun level and Creatinine levels were a little high. Had trouble peeing and if I eat wrong it makes it worse. For the three years I had been tested they have been high. For the fist time since the test came back right at the end of the normal level instead of past it.
Its amazing how food as screwed up my body. It sucks big time its hard to go out to eat and I don't really enjoy food. But its great to have the best energy levels I have had since my early 20's
