a word from the wrestler

I'm cuttin now.  And as i do this I find it easy to relate the dieting I'm beginning to embark on to the studies we have been doing in class.  The dieting in a wrestling society gets a little mind racking.  Some try to loose allot of weight in short amounts of time. the only way they can do this is by dehydration.  this makes your blood thickin up and you get dizzy.  Not a fun thing to do.  I have choosen to certify for a weight class 25 pounds less than I weigh now.  I have started now so that most all of that weight i lose wil be fat.  I don't feel like being dehydrated for a month like last year.  But, any way, to relate I believe that i will start cutting down on white breads, and rice, and pastries of course and start putting in the protien and maybe a little wheat bread or rye bread in the morning so it has all day to digest.  Hardly any salt, and lots of hot green veggies to speed up the matabolism.  O and the water, gotta have the water too.  Its all about mind set though, this weight cutting is.  Well just thought i'd put a little add in this dumpster of knowledge.

mmmmM! MORE ON CARBS!

http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat/carbohydrates/  This is the site I'm writin about

      In the article, The carbohydrates are depicted as good things for you to eat.  Which they are, carbohydrates are a Very good thing for you to eat because it allows you to have lots of energy throughout your day.  It just so happens, carbohydrates are the main source of energy for us humans.  It said when people go on the fad of low carb dieting, their life pretty much sucks during that time because they have hardly any energy, don't feel like dong anything, and worst of all, aren't full.  You gotta have your carbs!  But just the right ones.   You see when you eat healthy carbs like whole grains, dark green veggies, fruits, and beans, it puts good carbs, vitamins, mineral, phytonutrients, and fiber into your healthy self.  But on the contrary, doughnuts, and strudel aren't whole grains.  Foods that are pastry like, or similar to white rice and white bread tend to have a negative effect on your body.  It causes weight gain, prevents weight loss, and can lead to heart probs.  Not saying that you should never eat those foods, but if your every day breakfast lunch and dinner is all bad carbs, you might need a change in diet.  So what have we learned today, well lets see.   Eat your whole grains, eat your dark green veggies, and bask in some fruit too.  Shoot enjoy your self a doughnut avery once in a while as well.  Most importantly, just eat your dang carbs,  your weight will come off if it's a problem, just gotta be a patient weight loser.

MMMMM! CARBS!

There is a lab that we did recently in class that shows you how to find out whether or not the carb is a Mono, Di, or Poly saccharide.  And it was interesting, but i honestly can't remember exactly how to classify them but i did get some other knowledge from it.  The carbs, when you eat em', they can be stored in different ways depending one time place and quantity.  If you stock up on carbs before you go to bed, then they will usually be stored as fat. But, when you eat the same way in the morning, then your body has all day for it to burn them off as energy.  Not eating enough carbs will lead your body to go after your fat storage for energy.   To add, people that go on the low carb diet, to even no carb diet to loose weight tend to be really tired and groggy.  Know why?  It's because they are depleting their body of the best source of energy found within food.  low carb diets sound like they suck because of this, so i wouldn't recommend going on it.  Also, when you play the toot flute, carbs have allot to do with that as well.  when your body digests the carbs or proteins as well, theres a toxic gas that derives from the digestion process your body doesn't want to hold on too.  So then it gets excreted.  Thats what i learned from the carbohydrate section of the class.  Enjoy your carbs all.
