re: Feeling gross after vacation

I feel gross after every meal I eat lately. It's like I'm carbing up for a marathon I'm not running.
But I do know that for me, (when and if I get it together after a binge or a period of binging like I am in now) it's a 3-6 day period of flushing out the excess sodium and of course the water follows the sodium, and after that I feel back to "normal". (But unfortunately, as of late, at the 6-7 day mark I'm due for another 1-man Pizza Party and I load up again on all the calories and excess sodium and the cycle begins again)
Recently I was listening to a Joe Defranco podcast episode (it's episode #21 and it's from 2015, so maybe shite has changed, but it sounded sensible to me) from many years ago and he was talking to Mike Dolce, and he was talking about how he got the best results with diuresis in cutting weight from a gradual, but consistent, reduction in sodium over about a week long period. I was surprised that a gradual reduction in sodium gave him better results than a rapid reduction in sodium, but he repeatedly said how the athletes he trained and advised in nutrition (for what was usually a pre-competition weight cut for MMA/boxing/wrestling bouts), felt and looked better with a gradual reduction in sodium.
So I'm going to try a more gradual approach to my issues and hopefully that'll help get me off this yo-yo cycle of swinging back and forth from extremes and ultimately getting nowhere.
