Atkins Induction Menu Plan - Day 2

Weight - 244.8lbs
Mood - 5
Pain - 4
Exercise - ? (prolly will try)

The good news is my pain is at a manageable 4 right now. The bad news is that after enduring it all day and into the night, I broke down and took a Narco 10/325 to control it. I love this drug. It works on the pain quickly and knocks it back to a level I can have quality of life.

But. And there is a VERY big but attached to it...
The Drawbacks of Narco 10/325:

1. Narco 10/325 is a controlled substance - so it's hard to get.
2. It's a narcotic and is highly addictive.
3. It chills you out more than weed, or so Willy and Toby tell me. I dunno. I've never tried it nor inhaled. ;)
4. Narco 10/325 makes me constipated.
5. Narco 10/325 makes me gain 4-5 pounds overnight. Every time I take it.

So it is very easy to understand why I am not addicted to it and popping them like candy every 4 hours. You see I'm kinda crazy. I LIKE to have productive days where I can cross things off lists. I'm a list maker. I also like to go poopy. Daily. Every day. Sometimes more than once! And I like seeing weight loss on the scale after a good, clean, day on low carb. Waking to find I'm up 4 pounds for no good reason, just sets my teeth on edge and puts me in a mood most fowl. So most of the time, I choose not to take the pain pill in order to not have the scale make me its bit*h.

Mother trucker.

Resumed Atkins Induction after surgery and recovery.

Bilateral Latissimus Dorsi Flap Resection for Stage IIIC Breast Cancer Reconstruction

Quit JUDDD and low carb to prepare for surgery.

August 13, 2012 -

Resumed JUDDD schedule while continuing with the Circadian Rhythm Schedule for eating and sleeping windows.

July 23 - August 12 -

I'm starting an n=1 pseudo-experiment today. It's based on experiments with Calorie Restriction and Food Restriction or Food Windows. I'm working with some guidance on this. The idea will be to reset my Circadian Rhythms.New research shows that Circadian Rhythm disruption influences inflammation and obesity as well as insulin sensitivity. These are all areas I'm desperate to address because fixing these areas could allow my body to heal. This could give me a better shot at remaining cancer free.

For the next 3 weeks, I must reset the Circadian Clock inside my body. To reset the CC (Circadian Clock) I need to discontinue JUDDD over the next 3 weeks and simply adhere to a feeding, sleeping and waking schedule. I will be adding a note section at the end of each day in order to evaluate status and moods.

Step 1: Eat a low carb diet without calorie restriction for the next 3 weeks without any type of calorie rotation.

Step 2: Eat all meals within an 8 hour feeding window - 11am - 7pm. Absolutely no eating after 7pm. Non-caloric liquids are allowed on demand.

Step 3: Adhere to a bedtime with total darkness at 11pm and wake time of 6:30am, every day.

Step 4: After 3 weeks I will resume JUDDD Rotations with a 20% Calorie Restriction on Down Days - 500 kcals, Up Days will allow up to 2340 kcals. The JUDDD Rotation will feature low carb nutrition. Continue to follow the FR (Food Restriction eating window, bedtime, and waking time.)

Step 5: After 2 weeks back on JUDDD Rotations, evaluate the ongoing weight loss level I feel comfortable in sustaining for the long term. I can go as high as a 50% restriction and still experience activation of the SIRT1 genes and asthma alleviation. Continue to follow the FR (Food Restriction eating window, bedtime, and waking time.)

JUDDD Plan -

What in the Sam-hill, cockamamie food plan are you following? That can't be low carb!! Well, you're right it isn't simply low carb. I follow a derivation of the Johnson's Alternate Day Diet. I tweaked the JUDDD diet, as it's called, into a low carb version.

I choose to follow this plan right now, because I am experiencing dramatic improvement on asthma symptoms, blood sugar control and weight loss.

More importantly, I also experienced a greater than 50% response rate in neo-adjuvant chemotherapy towards a high grade prolific ER+/PR+/Her2Neu- breast cancer and lost 45lbs during treatment - when most people in breast cancer treatment gain 10-20lbs. (KI-67 was 22% with 17mitotic bodies).

Sure, I'm a turtle. Weight loss is slow weight loss. But it's weight loss! Hope that helps bring you up to speed!

The JUDDD diet has quite a bit of testing behind it and is founded upon theories that alternate day caloric restriction activates the longevity gene, the SIRT1 gene.

Suggested side effects of the JUDDD Diet are greater blood sugar control, reduction of systemic inflammation, relief or improvement of asthma conditions, reduction in movement disorder brain dysfunction, and possible anti-cancer effects.

But! Key to remember, I'm an n=1, not a doctor, not a nutritionist, nor allied health practitioner and you MUST do your own research. I'm just a girl who had cancer and is dancing with NED at this point in time.
