How is diet correlated to body temperature? I understand that if you eat spicy food it can increase your temperature but overall how does one affect the other?
Not to spoil the fun with geeky stuff, but in answer to your question, whenever you restrict calories, your body thinks it’s starving and it tries to lower your metabolism. A lower metabolism means lower body temp. That’s why Thibs had you guys stick thermometers up your ass - so he could get your body temp and monitor your metabolism. I’m on week 3 of the V-Diet, and my first week I would be sitting in a 70 degree room and be cold. I had cold hands almost constantly.
You may now return to your jocularity.
Right on Mike. How’s the bear liking the V-diet?
Everything that Shugs said has proven to be true. This third week is, in a way, easier than the first two, but now I’m just tired of drinking nothing but shakes. As tasty as Metabolic Drive shakes are, is another damn protein shake I goota chug down. And I’ve had cravings, but for stuff like roast chicken and salad. You have no idea how much I want a salad right now. I drove by a pizza place tonight and the thought of eating all that greasy cheese just turned my stomache. I’m not kidding - I think the diet has really changed my food preferences just like Shugs said it would. It really is as much of an “experience” as it is a diet. And I’ve dropped 10 lbs. in just over 2 weeks. I was relatively low carb prior to the V-Diet which may explain the relative “slowness” much like Greg is experiencing. I’m thrilled with the 10. I plan on taking the 4-week break like Shugs recommends and then doing this again.
