I feel great!

Now that the RL is gone, things are back to normal, I managed not to quit the sugar ban and now I just have to restart the exercise routine and figure out which of the nutrients was supposedly causing this (because it's too much of a coincidence that the RL has stopped for good once I started taking multivitamin). It's supposed to be either magnesium, iron or vitamin B12 deficiency. So I will start by trying those the next time I start feeling RL... I have to analyse my diet and figure out which of these nutrients are likely to be insufficient in it. I don't think it's likely that I have a dietary iron or magnesium deficiency since I eat lots of nuts, and fish (rich in iron and magnesium). Between those 3 nutrients, I would bet more on vitamin B12 deficiency. One vitamin I'm almost positive I'm deficient in, is vitamin D, since I get little to no sun exposure and you're supposed to get between 20 to 30 minutes a day/3 days a week (on your forearms and face)but there doesn't seem to be a link between vitamin D deficiency and RL. When it comes to vitamin B12 food sources, it would not surprise me if I'm not getting enough of those. I used to have a strong feeling against artificial vitamins etc but the truth is, they appear to be very helpful in some situations such as this, when you don't seem to be able to get enough nutrition out of your diet. I will eventually have to leave this "cane" of vitamin supplements and fix my diet when I find out the culprit :P. I'll also try to be more careful with other nutrients that might be missing from now on. Despite this nutrient mishap, I feel better than ever, even my memory now seems to be considerably better and I seem to be much more focused. So many things have improved drastically since I stopped eating sweets. So many problems that I used to associate with age, or bad genes have disappeared almost overnight...

The weight is still going down despite the short break from exercise. It's true though that I've annihilated the muscles in my legs doing squats and calf raises till failure because of the RL. This must have had some impact on the calorie burning, protein synthesis etc since my leg muscles ached for like 2 or 3 days.

edit: I think this was the most caloric salad I've ever had in my life lol... edit: Now that I think of it, it was probably not since I used to "submerge" my salads in olive oil, which is pretty caloric :)

edit: I just googled "vitamin B12 in milk" and it turns out that there are 2.4 micrograms of B12 in 2 cups of milk (just 0.1 micrograms short of the daily recommended dosage which is 2.5 micrograms) which means that I should be getting enough B12 a day considering that I rarely drink less than 2 cups of milk and that I additionally eat other foods that must have B12. Puzzling ...

today I ended up not exercising because of a mixture of lack of routine/ legs still hurting a little bit from squats/ and losing track of time doing other stuff lol... Tomorrow I really should restart cycling. And I will... almost certainly lol.
