Quitting/Reducing sugar intake is the worst loving poo poo I've ever done. And I've had to quit subutex (as a painkiller). gently caress me. Im crashing so hard it's not even funny after the gym. I hate this so much.

Im guessing the opiate withdrawals are loving u up much more than the reduced sugar champ

Hopefully your sugar intake is low that you fat adapt. The first week, especially about 5~ days in until about a week after was rough as I really just ran out of sugar energy and my body was just like "WTF AM I GONNA DO WITH JUST BACON?!?"

I just slept a lot, and ate more bacon.

No, I can honestly say - when I had subutex (due to a serious infection, complicated, no drug abuse) - It was far easier to quit than this crap. It's 100% horseshit (sugar).

Mmh yeah here is to hoping. Atm I am down to 0.5L of soda max per day- everything else is no go, no candy, chocolate or added sugar on food etc. - Before I had absurd intake of sugar. We are talking 10 cans of coke per day. Candy etc. It's a loving miracle I don't have diabetes or ended up looking like a marshmellow.

Non, maybe pancakes on a rare occation, but some premade poo poo comes with added sugar - I skip that completely now. I rarely ate premade crap though. Mostly pure beef / chicken and some vegetables, fish etc.
I generaly eat rather healthy. Just cutting the sugar crap to see if it has any effect on inflamations etc. (arthitis).

You should probably get a spotter/someone who knows their poo poo to help you out so you don't gently caress your back. Go with just the barbell first to get the "movement" into your muscle memory etc.

You're lucky - I've had family members try to just cut down on caffeine and get headaches, migraines, cold sweat, etc.

I've never had a problem either, I guess we're just okay with caffeine?

Widening your stance and pushing out with your knees makes back rounding impossible. You don't have to be squatting like Louie Simmons or anything, just a couple inches wider :cool:
