Last night, I got a bit peckish, so I whipped up some lovely lamb chops, fried until rare:
So as a result, I wasn't in the least bit hungry for breakfast this morning, so I decided to fast through the day. Packed a couple of tins of tuna/salmon, just in case, but they remain untouched for another time.
Dinner: minced beef, bacon, and spoonfuls of lard!
Second course: chicken breast with skin (cooked up mainly for the boy's late dinner, and figured I might as well give it a try. Boring snoring.)
Long days for both of us here, no energy to type or even think... Time to read in bed!
Hi! I am just interested in how your weight and measurements have changed (if at all) from the meat-only diet. And how you feel. Do you feel energized from all the fat, or do you have to drink any caffeine?
ReplyDeleteHi Anahi,
ReplyDeleteI'll be doing my weekly check-in tomorrow, but I doubt there will be any meaningful change in measurements, and my weight will be a little raised due to my female hormones.
In terms of energy, I feel absolutely fine/normal, and I don't use caffeine. This week I cut out even my green tea, so it has just been meat and water, and I have not felt any muscular or mental fatigue except when I eat but don't have time to stop my active day for digestion. Even when I feel I have probably used up all the glucose/glycogen in my system, my body continues running smoothly, suggesting successful keto-adaptation. It's been a great experiment in terms of proving the human body can run very efficiently on this diet, and/or can adapt very well to lifestyle changes provided they still provide the body with all essentials. :)
